Really enjoyed the workshop. Very hands on and we were taken step by step through the different candle making techniques. Tuition was outstanding and the tutor a lovely lady. Will definitely recommend the workshop 

Helen

The workshop is really good fun AND you get to leave with a bag of good looking candles that you have made, so it's super satisfying too. Sarah is a fabulous tutor. Highly recommended. 

Aida De Fonseka

I had a great time at the workshop! Sarah was so informative, there wasn’t anything she didn’t know about candle making. I had no idea what is involved in the process. Fantastic value for money, came home with lots of candles, which I shared with my daughter in law. She loves candles and now wants to do the workshop!
Thank you Sarah for a very fun time. Aida

Helen G

A really lovely Christmassy workshop with Sarah who is an excellent teacher so that you always leave with a little bag of gorgeous hand made things (this time candles, wax melts and a decorative pinecone). I am a very happy repeat customer. 

Carol Archer

Really enjoyed the candle making course. Sarah was very informative and friendly and made the session fun and interesting with her excellent knowledge of candle making . Would definitely recommend this candle making experience 

Deborah Miller

A fabulous afternoon dabbling with wax.  I was a bit concerned that a beginners course might be a bit basic but we learnt a lot of useful tips about types of wax an wicks, then made several different styles of candles to take home.  The time flew by.  Although three of us went together, there were several ladies on their own and we had a great interaction.  Cosy classroom in a garden room (with toilet facilities). 

Caroline Davies

Such a fun morning out and actually managed to produce some lovely candles under Sarah's excellent guidance! 

Shilpa Kala

The workshop was informative & something different from our normal routine. Enjoyed it. Only thing that made me unhappy was that , I ran out of little wax to make additional tea light candles.

Very enjoyable course and Sarah was really good at explaining everything. The projects that we did were great and have given me confidence to carry on. 

This was my third class with Sarah, and as ever, it was excellent fun, delivered by an excellent and very approachable teacher who guides you through the candle making process and sends you off 3 hours later with a bag groaning with all the candles you have made. Highly recommended. :)
