  • 5/5 from Deborah Richardson, attended Aug 2024: I received my course voucher for Mother’s Day. I was very happy with the whole experience. Sophie, the teacher, was so knowledgeable and gave many tips and hints for my future candle making ventures at home. The names of suppliers of the products we were using was especially important for future use. The venue was perfect, just a few minutes walk from the station. There was a great selection of materials to choose from and I’m really pleased that I also included the diffuser lesson as well I was so happy to learn about all the aspects of candle making. Probably one of the most important was obviously the safety issues of dealing with hot wax and reusing glass candle containers. This was a very worthwhile experience and at such a reasonable price, I would recommend it. I found all the participants were like me, so keen to learn how to make candles and diffusers and it was a very happy and fun experience.
