In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn how to create your own full-sized scented soy candle with a lid. Throughout the session, you'll master the essential techniques of candle making while crafting a personalised candle to take home and enjoy.This creative activity welcomes complete beginners, with no previous experience necessary. Many newcomers worry that candle making might be complicated, but with proper guidance, you'll discover that creating beautiful, fragrant candles is surprisingly accessible and enjoyable. During the workshop, you'll work with vegan, clean-burning soy wax and explore the art of scent blending with pure essential oils, choosing from fresh, citrus, woody, floral, or combination fragrances to create a signature scent that's uniquely yours. The session includes practical knowledge about candle making techniques, proper candle care, and troubleshooting tips. By the end of this delightful workshop, you'll have acquired valuable candle making skills that you can continue to develop at home, along with your own handcrafted scented candle — perfect for creating moments of self-care or giving as a thoughtful gift. The experience is enhanced by the fabulous arty setting in the Paxton Centre, located near historic Crystal Palace triangle and park, where you are provided with a hot drink and delicious cake of your choosing.
