Soy Wax Candle Making Set in a Japanese Ceramic
Simple easy to follow instructions, Tara is a great teacher who makes you feel welcome - quite a feat on Zoom. Answers questions and is obviously very knowledgeable on all aspects of candle making. I had enough wax to make another little candle but didn't have another pretty cup to put it in.

I really enjoyed this class, Tara was knowledgeable and took her time to teach us about making soy candles - learned a lot about temperatures and how to choose the right wick and how much fragrance to add. I particularly appreciated the Japanese ceramic tea cup that we used, and can re-use for a tea cup! Thank you. Have left a photo of my candle - it has already had a workout!
