This low-pressure environment is designed to be calm and uplifting, whether you're joining by yourself for some "me-time, " planning a unique date night, or catching up with friends. You're even welcome to bring along your favourite drinks to enjoy in the relaxed workshop area as you create.

By the end of the class, you'll have gained the confidence to work with wax and botanicals, walking away with a stunning, hand-poured keepsake that's beautifully packaged and ready to display. You'll leave the studio feeling inspired by your new skills and the gorgeous, fragrant object you've made from scratch.

Had such a lovely time at this workshop. The whole process was calm, enjoyable and very easy to follow. I especially liked doing the floral embossing because it made the candle feel much more special than a standard candle class. There were nice scent choices as well, and the final result looked elegant enough to gift or keep at home.

I came with a friend and we both had a great time. It was creative without being difficult, and we could chat while making our candles. A perfect catch-up activity.

The candle turned out beautifully and the scent lasted really well once I got home. I’ve had a few compliments on it already.

I came with a friend and we both had a lovely time. It was relaxed, creative and a really nice way to spend a couple of hours together. Much better than the usual coffee catch-up.
