Christmas Candle Making - Vintage Bauble | Tuesday 15th December - 6.30m till 9pm
Christmas Bauble Candle Workshop - A luxurious festive candle-making experience
Come and make something rather special this Christmas while enjoying a mulled wine and a selection of festive nibbles.
Join Heather & May for a wonderfully cosy evening of Christmas candle making, where you’ll create your own luxurious double wood-wick soy candle inside one of our beautiful vintage-inspired Christmas bauble vessels.
Choose between Antique Gold or Ruby Red – two gorgeous, statement glass baubles designed to be enjoyed long after your candle has finished burning. Refill it with another festive fragrance, repurpose it as a beautiful Christmas ornament or bring it out year after year as part of your festive décor. This really is a Christmas candle with a difference – and a keepsake you’ll treasure.
Heather has been making candles for 14 years, and during the workshop she will guide you through the candle-making process from start to finish. You’ll learn about soy wax and its benefits, how to correctly wick your vessel, fragrance ratios, temperatures and some of the tips and tricks Heather has picked up from over a decade in the candle business.
Then comes possibly the hardest part… choosing your scent!
You’ll have access to our extensive seasonal fragrance library, packed with beautiful festive and winter fragrances. Once you’ve found the one, you’ll blend your fragrance with soy wax before pouring.
We absolutely love wooden wicks. Not only do they look beautiful, but once lit they create that gorgeous gentle crackle as they burn, adding another layer of cosiness to those dark winter evenings.
And because it wouldn’t be Christmas at our studio without a little festive indulgence, there’ll be mulled wine, festive nibbles and plenty of cosy Christmas atmosphere while we make.
Your finished candle can then become part of your Christmas traditions for years to come. Optional refill kits will also be available to purchase, so when your candle is finished you can give your bauble a whole new fragrance and enjoy it all over again.
