Recent reviews of Candle Making Class for Beginners
- 4/5 from Kerryn McHardy, attended Jan 2025: I purchased this class as a Christmas gift for a friend. Michele is very warm and welcoming and has a sound knowledge of candle-making. She shares this knowledge freely and spends a reasonable amount of time at the start of the session on basics and safety. We enjoyed her class immensely and feel confident in making our own candles. If you have any questions, Michell is open to being contacted after the class. She also offers workshops for people who wish to make candle-making a social event or seek continued support. THank you for a great evening Michelle.
- 5/5 from Abby Apostolidis, attended Apr 2024: Our candle making class was for my daughter and niece (11 & 12yrs old). Michelle was very knowledgeable and explained things easily, we had a great time and left with all the do’s & don’ts to make candles along with 2 beautiful smelling candles each that the girls made. Highly recommend. Thank you again Michelle!

As a family of three, we were thoroughly engrossed and appreciated her generosity in sharing techniques. It felt as if she was unveiling the secrets behind her candle-making success. Highly recommended for those looking to delve into the craft!
- 5/5 from Tracey Wiederstein, attended May 2023: Michelle was very approachable and knowledgeable about candle making and I was very appreciative that she started the lesson with the things you should not do.

I really like that Michelle is open to me contacting her after the class if I have questions or need supplies.

- 5/5 from Rebecca, attended May 2022: I had the best experience with Michelle at Shelly Ann Candles. The set was beautiful, her house smells amazing from all her beautiful scents collections. She’s a professional candle maker and an excellent teacher. Even though I went late there an hour late, we ended up staying up late for a good chat’s until 10:30 As a candle lover myself, I’m glad I attended her session. I highly recommend anyone to Shelly Ann Candles for those who are starting out, candle lovers and if you want to start your own business Michelle is your to go to person.

I have been making candles now for over 8 years. This started as a hobby and grew, i now not only sell to public but run workshops through my community and youth support services business working with special needs youth and adults. I am now extending out and running introductory classes to candle making for everyone. In this class you will learn the basics of candle making so you can make your own candles at home. You will walk out of the experience with two candles that you have made from a selection of designs and fragrances. NDIS welcome. open to all ages.
