Charlotte reviewed: Beginners candle making workshop - London

"Having chatted about the dream of making my own candles, I was given this course as a Christmas present. Not knowing entirely what to expect from it I was delighted to find that you actually make a few different candles during this fun but informative experience. Sarah was very friendly and clearly passionate about what she does and encourages you to carry on with it on your own and offering support. Would thoroughly recommend"

"I was looking for something special to do for my mum's 70th Birthday, this course was absolutely perfect. 9 of us attended with a mix of ages from 8 to 70 we all loved it. Sarah makes the whole experience fun and we were delighted with all the candles we took home. Sarah is efficient and cant do enough to make your experience perfect, she's got me hooked. Thanks Sarah"

Andie Lawson reviewed: Beginners candle making private workshop - Marlow, Buckinghamshire

"Three of us attended this course together, and we had the most fabulous time. Sarah's experience shone through and she was the perfect teacher. The process was fascinating and went at at the pace of the group. Amazing results for newbies as well...we all went home really proud of our craft! Since the course Sarah has become a great mentor and has been so helpful as we have started to make candles to sell...which is very exciting! A brilliant craft to learn with a skilled, experienced and lovely tutor!"

"I did the beginners course with 3 friends. It was a very enjoyable session and we came home with a good selection of candles. Sarah was very warm and welcoming and we had such a good time we went on to do the intermediate course. Sarah very kindly organised a special course for the four of us in Marlow on a Saturday we could all make in December. I would highly recommend Sarah’s courses."

Alexandra reviewed: Beginners candle making workshop - London

"After receiving a candle making kit the Christmas before last, I’d been unsuccessfully trying my hand at candle making for around a year. This course was just what I needed to set me up for success. The content was excellent and it was very well organised. I had a really fun time, learnt lots and came away feeling more confident and prepared. Sarah is a great instructor, very knowledgeable and helpful. The support doesn’t stop at the end of the course either - Sarah is happy to answer questions as you practice after the course which is really appreciated. Wholeheartedly recommend this course!"

Frances Eagan reviewed: Beginners candle making private workshop - Marlow, Buckinghamshire

"I did the beginners course a while ago and absolutely loved it. Sarah is very knowledgeable about everything to do with candle making, and the history of waxes etc. Very relaxed and friendly workshop and It so easy to see Sarah is passionate about her work which rubs off onto her students! Sarah also supports people in their own candle making at home after the workshop. So it’s not just a one off workshop. You have her support and knowledge ongoing. I’ve got three more workshops booked for this year so far and I’m excited about them. Thorughly enjoyable! Thoroughly recommended!"

Shivani Murarka reviewed: Beginners candle making private workshop - Marlow, Buckinghamshire

"I attended a workshop run by Sarah in August. Sarah was just fantastic with great knowledge. She taught and guided me to make the most beautiful variety of candles. She made sure to not only give useful hints and tips but also take lots of photos and note to help us remember ever small detail of the process. I've done a candle making course before but what I thought was unique about this course with Sarah was the way she taught me to use different waxes for a whole creative range of candles - from moulded candles, to t -lights to stick candles, floating candles we made them all! After this workshop I can’t wait to start experimenting with candle making at home. Thank you Sarah!"

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

C Chandler reviewed: Beginners candle making private workshop - Marlow, Buckinghamshire

"I attended one of Sarah's candle making courses in December, I thoroughly enjoyed it! So much so that I have just finished one of her advanced courses. I have learnt a lot from Sarah and her book - which has great step by step instructions and photos on how to make other types of candles at home. (Which I am doing!) Sarah has excellent knowledge and passion in this subject, which makes her courses fun and enjoyable. The group is a good size too. We got to take home our finished products - which was great to show off to family & friends! I would highly recommend Sarahs candle making courses!"

Rebecca Denton reviewed: Beginners candle making private workshop - Marlow, Buckinghamshire

"I attended the course on Sunday 29 April 2018 and loved it. Sarah explained everything and her instructions were easy to follow. I have a learning disability and normally need assistance or need to be shown something more than once. Not on this course I got it straight away and didn't even need to mention that I may need additional help. I CANT NOT WAIT to get on further courses with Sarah. Thanks you"

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

"I thoroughly enjoyed the candle making workshop. Able to make lots of wonderful candles even as my first time making them. A lovely group, very interactive and learnt so much, really nice to bring away so many examples to show friends and family. I can't wait to start using the starter kit too, to make even more wonderful candles of my own."

Jackie Lee reviewed: Beginners candle making private workshop - Marlow, Buckinghamshire

"I thoroughly enjoyed this three hour course. Sarah is an excellent communicator and all the participants achieved excellent results. I left the course brimming with enthusiasm and confidence and can not wait to get started on my own. Thank you Sarah for the lovely coffee and cakes.... an added bonus!"

Steve Woodcock reviewed: Beginners candle making private workshop - Marlow, Buckinghamshire

"Ok, l know I am a bloke, but I had a great time with 8 ladies at Sarah's class! Sarah packed loads in, including cake and coffee, and is both a really good communicator and enthusiast. I learned loads, came home with some great candles and am now going off to make my own candles. Really can recommend this, such a nice and rewarding way to spend a morning. Her book makes a great aide memoire too."

Mandie Lovelock reviewed: Beginners candle making private workshop - Marlow, Buckinghamshire

"I attended this workshop with two friends, and all three of us had a fantastic time! Sarah is highly knowledgeable and a great teacher, and takes you through the steps to making a wide variety of candles, as well as explaining the history of candles and all the different types of waxes, wicks and moulds. Her expert instruction has given me the confidence to go on and start making candles at home!"

Rebecca Bennett reviewed: Beginners candle making workshop - London

"I attended this course last week. It was absolutely fantastic and I would definitely book onto another. Sarah was so friendly and informative. The environment was relaxed and fun. I learnt about and made a variety of different candles, ones which I will keep and use. I can’t wait to make some more using what I learnt."
