Gather in the greenhouse for a cosy winter candle workshop, with Lucinda at Burning Bright
Service Description
Join Lucinda from Burning Bright, hosted by Laura at Bollé & Bloom, for a Christmas candle making and scent exploration workshop by candlelight! You will make and get to take away with you 3 gorgeous pinch-pot candles in refillable hand-made clay pots, packaged beautifully, ready in time for Christmas. At the workshop, Lucinda will talk you through some of her own candle creations to inspire you, followed by a brief introduction to essential oils. We will be using natural botanical oils to fragrance the candles, with all the wonderful scents of Christmas; think cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, orange, cedarwood and so much more. We’ll also cover the basics of creating your own natural fragrance, including layering, top notes, base notes, and using essential oils for aromatherapy. You’ll then mix your own natural fragrances (with Lucinda's help!) and create your very own blend of essential oils to form the base of your candle scent. Next, you’ll combine your custom fragrance with natural soy wax, wick your handmade pots, and pour your three candles. As the candles set, you can decorate them with natural botanicals - crystals, pressed flowers, and the foliage of Christmas - and package them in either individual bags to give as gifts or a box for you to enjoy yourself. Mulled wine and home made treats will be served to get you in the festive spirit! The perfect early Christmas present for you and your crafty loved ones! You can find out more about Lucinda and her gorgeously successful small business at www.theburningbright.com
