Your teacher
I have been making and teaching how to make candles for approximately 15 years. I have an online candle business where I sell wholesale to retailers and to individuals.
I have years of knowledge when it comes to all different types of waxes, candles, wicks and all the latest info when it comes to candle making. I can even point you to all the candle supplies and tips on starting your own candle business!
I really enjoy teaching and love watching peoples reactions as their candles set and they can see what they have created. The classes are small and personal in my workshop at my home and I tend to customise the class around the group and what they would like to learn.

This class was so much fun. The teacher had so much information and gave us so many tips on both candles and soaps, how to make things easier or cheaper for ourselves. She had so many products on display and everything was beautiful .
We made lots of different products and got to take them all home with us . A large pillar candle , two soaps , two bees wax candles, 3 tea light candles and two small jar candles.
There was a great space available to take awesome photos of all of our creations, a light snack was provided .

Fantastic 2 hours leaning to make a variety of different candles from pillars to tea lights. We also made some beautiful soaps with dried flowers and perfume.

Well worth the cost and I would recommend this course to everyone .

Thank you Cherie!

From the moment we arrived to the time we left armed with our beautiful creations, it was good vibes, smiles, laughter and ZEN! Made pillar candles, bees wax, tea light and container candles, beautifully scented! Soaps were easy to make and divine to look at - who knew we were so talented? LOL! Had a ball and highly recommend! Shiree is fabulously talented, patient and cannot wait to do another course with her! Thanks

Absolutely fantastic Shiree is a bubbly , sweet ,very friendly lady who makes you feel welcome and right at home . She explains everything in simple to understand terms provides everything you need for your lesson and more , she's very generous with materials and knowledge definitely great value for money I did not expect to do as much as I did Next time I'm booking a private lesson to advance on what I've learned on this workshop. More than recommending this class if you thinking of candle making Shiree is your lady .
Amy Rakowski • Oct 2020
My sister had wanted to do a candle making workshop for a really long time so for her birthday I brought her here. I found this workshop online through ClassBento and was gravitated towards it because it sounded like we would learn a lot, get to take home more candles than other workshops and also got to make soap. I am so pleased I chose this workshop in the end. For all those reasons it was great! Our host was so friendly, warm, inviting and informative. The room is clean, modern, comfortable and smells amazing! She made the tasks really easy to learn and do. It was a delightfully calm and creative morning and I HIGHLY recommend everyone to do a workshop here.
