Maker's bio

Candle by Events is The Candle-making Experience Company based in Marlow, Buckinghamshire. Founded in 2008 by Sarah Ditchfield, the business started off producing candles for shops, hotels and restaurants. In 2012 we built our candle-making studio and began running open workshops for beginners plus themed candle-making events around Easter, Christmas and other celebrations. We also run parties, family fun days, hen parties and corporate team building events - all around candle-making. Besides hands-on candle-making we coach and support candle-making entrepreneurs helping them set up their own successful businesses. In addition to our in-person workshops we run virtual workshops - our beginner's online workshop provides all the equipment and materials you need (shipped FREE to your door) together with a live online workshop and videos, etc. taking you step-by-step through all the techniques to learn and make lots of fabulous candles at home. This includes access to the Masterclass group, regular live online webinars and other online offerings, where you learn new techniques and where we help them solve any candle-making challenges. Our founder has written two candle-making books published by Dorling Kindersley and Search Press, which can be purchased in book shops and online.

Lesley reviewed: Beginners candle making private workshop - Marlow, Buckinghamshire

"I did a Christmas workshop at the weekend and it was wonderful. I have previously attended a course in the summer and both courses are highly recommended, fun and very good value in my opinion. I came away with some lovely little gift ideas and inspiration and advice for continuing to make my own creations. Lesley"

Lesley reviewed: Beginners candle making private workshop - Marlow, Buckinghamshire

"I really enjoyed doing the course. Sarah presented various techniques really well and everything was provided for us all to make four types of lovely candles. It has got me feeling passionate about making lots of my own creations and I am looking forward to doing the Christmas workshop. I thought the course was inspirational and very good value for money."
