This is a fun activity in Strand, London

Hosted by ambustum at Makerversity (just on the North side of Waterloo Bridge, at the end of the Strand), this 75-minute session invites you to slow down, connect with scent, and leave with your own custom-poured candle.

You’ll learn how to make your own candle using a natural coconut and rapeseed wax blend, exploring ambustum’s signature scent profiles before blending and pouring your own.

Each guest finishes with a personalised label and a deeper understanding of the craft.

A calm, creative experience in one of London’s most beautiful historic buildings.

“I took my girlfriend here for Valentine's Day and we loved it! We were able to learn lots about how candles are made and we had great fun doing it ourselves. Designing our own labels was a great addition to the experience so thank you very much!!!”

“Had a lovely time making candles at this worksop with my partner. Sari was very informative about the art of candle making, giving lots of advice on how to create and care for candles. We made two wonderful smelling candles and are excited to use some of the things we learned to begin making candles at home as well.”
