Manchester tip
Manchester workshops tend to have smaller group sizes than London — you often get more one-to-one time with the instructor. The Northern Quarter and Ancoats studio scene has grown significantly, with several independent candle studios now running regular weekly sessions. Weekday evenings are particularly good for smaller groups.
What you'll do in 2 hours
🌸 Scent blending
Choose from 20–40 fragrance oils. Create a single scent or blend your own combination — floral, woody, citrus, or seasonal.
🌡️ Wax & pouring
Melt soy wax, add fragrance at the correct temperature, and pour into your container. Technique and timing covered by the instructor.
🏷️ Labels & finish
Personalise your candles with labels while they set. Take 2–3 finished candles home on the day — ready to burn after 24 hours.
