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.

It was an easy to follow and informative morning. I learnt a great deal and the teacher was happy to answer questions regarding different types of waxes and soaps beyond the scope of what was being taught. I would recommend to others. Suitable to all ability levels.
Carolina Jozipovic • Sep 2021
Loved the class. Shiree was very helpful and felt like I was chatting with a friend. The candles and soap turned out beautifully. And the whole process was really enjoyable.

This was a fun class. You have to be ready and organized but we were led through very well. Lots of products made and lots of knowledge taught to us. My daughter and I really enjoyed this class. It was totally worth it (even though we were nervous) no need to be the teacher led us through and we learned so much! Thank you.
Judy • Sep 2021
Comprehensive guidance and explanations from Shiree helped beginner participants produce candles and soaps that made us feel like professionals. Finished products look fantastic, almost too good to give away as gifts Judyx

I had such a great morning with Shiree learning how to make candles and soap. Shiree Was so knowledgeable and very happy to answer all of our questions. She shared her tips and tricks so we can produce professional looking products on our first go.
It was great to learn about the different ingredients and how to use them. I left feeling confident to go ahead and make more in my own time. I was so impressed with the candles and soap I made on the day.
My kit arrived in the mail with ample time, it was well packed and the directions were exceptionally simple. It was all perfect.
Thank you again Shiree. I wouldn’t hesitate to do another class with you if you choose to add more.
Alexandra Fuller • Aug 2021
Absolutely fantastic class. I really enjoyed both the candle and soap making. The kit was great and leaves you with all the basics to keep making candles and soaps. The instructions were really clear and the session was interactive, Shiree was brilliant answering all my questions and a conversationalist. Would recommend to anyone looking for a taster class.
