Our physical workshops are back due to popular demand… We did a trial workshop in July with all safety precautions in place and it was a hit! We only have two more workshops this year, can you believe it!!! The dates are 15th November and 6th December. Book your spot now to avoid disappointment.
This past weekend we were able to cautiously host another successful workshop during this pandemic we are all experiencing. This is a way to bring joy to our lives and I am so grateful for the support. There is a buzz of excitement that comes over me when I have the opportunity to meet like minded creatives (or accountants looking to breakaway from the numbers!) and share my love of candle making and brand building with them. This workshop was no exception… Take a look at the photos from our time together.
The #SMLcandlemaking workshop covers the basics of candle making with a fundamental focus on hand poured vegan soy wax scented massage candles.
Our physical workshops cover the following:
– An introduction to candle making.
– Different types of candles.
– Methods of candle making.
– The benefits of soy wax.
– Blending essential oils.
– Candle making equipment and care thereof.
– Stockists details.
– How to create a personal brand with a focus on Instagram. (This includes photo editing tools, our favourite apps and tips on how to maximise your engagement.)
Our online candle making course was never designed to replace the physical workshop, (even though it was perfect timing with us being confined to our homes), but rather to support our international audience, so if you are reading this and longing to learn from the comfort of your own home – this is for you. Read more about our online course here, I would recommend that you purchase our candle making kit to ensure you have all the equipment you need at home to get started… Shop here.
