This is a fun activity in Stratford, London

Join this floral embossed candle making workshop in London (only a 6 min walk from Stratford Station!) and discover how to create a beautifully sculptural piece for your home. Located just a six-minute walk from Stratford Station, this hands-on session is the perfect way to switch off and get stuck into a new craft.

Your friendly teacher will guide you step-by-step through the process, ensuring you feel supported from start to finish. You'll have the chance to:

- Learn how to safely work with candle wax – master the essentials of melting and pouring.
- Choose from 60+ types of flowers, herbs, and other decorative materials – pick the perfect botanical elements for your design.
- Create elegant embossed floral designs with a premium aesthetic finish – craft a unique, textured look.
- Explore a variety of candle shapes and styles – find a form that suits your personal taste.
- Enjoy a selection of premium, plant-based essential oils – scent your creation with a rich, natural fragrance.
- Design a candle that reflects your personal style – make something that's truly one of a kind.

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.

Please note:
1. Other workshops may run at the same time.
2. Additional time may be needed for candle setting (~15 mins).
3. We allow a 15-minute grace period after your scheduled start time. If you arrive later than this, we may no longer be able to accommodate you, as we need to begin the workshop on time for other guests. In this case, please contact us and we'll offer you a one-time opportunity to reschedule

We now offer 60+ flowers, botanicals, and decorative elements to choose from!

“Went with a couple of friends and it was such a fun afternoon. We all chose different scents and ended up with completely different candles, which made it even more enjoyable. Definitely something I'd do again.”
