Love the strong scent of a beautiful long burning candle? Who doesn't! In this hands-on Sydney workshop, you will learn the basics of candle making and make your own container candles using food-grade paraffin wax.
Joining Victoria of Masterful Makers in her home studio in Sydney, we will cover:
- Wax types, pros and cons
- Equipment needed
- How to choose a wick, fragrance and colour
During the workshop, you will make two large double wick scented container candles. Gloves will be provided as we are working with hot wax, fragrance oils and dyes.
At the end of the class, you'll have two completed candles which will be left at the studio in order to set. You can arrange to pick them up at a later date or organise postage with your teacher. You'll also receive notes on how to make your own candles at home.
Knowledge required
This is a beginner's class to candle making, so no prior experience is needed. All materials and notes will be provided. You just turn up and be ready to have fun!
What you'll get
- Make and take home (at a later date as the candles need to set) two large double wick centred container candles.
- Notes on how to make your own candles.
What to bring
Dress comfortably, wear closed shoes and please bring a notebook.

This is a fun indoor activity, suitable for adults, and kids (minimum 12 years old). An adult must accompany any attending kids, and must pay for a separate ticket.

* Masterful Makers - DIY Workshops *
The art of being a maker!
Makers take raw materials and transform them into objects of desire. It is an art form, it is a craft, and it can be learned!
Come and experience a workshop with Masterful Makers. In as little as two hours you can walk out with a piece of handmade jewellery, leather bag, stunning knotted mala or your own personalised skincare products. All designed and crafted by you!
Let me introduce myself, I am Victoria White, a one-woman dynamo/mad scientist/designer and maker of crafts. I am the owner of Masterful Makers and offer boutique workshops from my studio.
My love for art, the history of man and pretty shiny things came together while being pregnant with my daughter and working for the Museum of African American Art in Florida. I fell in love with African trade beads. They were historical in context and heavy with human drama. They were an artefact, an antique and pretty. Pairing the few trade beads I had with semi-precious stones and sterling silver wire I began to make my first wrapped earrings.
It was very therapeutic and relaxing until my husband (at the time) saw the box of earrings I had made and took them to work. He returned that afternoon and presented me with a box of money, after having sold them all to his work colleagues! And that is how all this madness began.
That was a bit over 25 years ago. And here we are now!
I have my BA in art history and a Diploma in Visual Arts and Silversmithing.
I use my workshops to pass on my skills and knowledge so that you too will see just how enjoyable being a Maker can be. Coming away with personally designed and created pieces.
I am Victoria White and Making is my passion, let me make it yours as well.
Come and experience a Masterful Makers Workshop!
