Hand Rolled Beeswax Candles
£22 - 1½ hours
There are all sorts of benefits to using pure, natural beeswax candles. It's kinder to the environment than paraffin wax, and can neutralise pollutants in the air, eliminating odours, dust, and mould. They can even help to ease symptoms of allergies and asthma. Plus, rolled beeswax candles look and smell beautiful, are so easy and fun to make, and all without the mess of melting and pouring!
​
On this class you'll learn different techniques to make several designs and styles of candles with natural beeswax sheets, in a variety of colours. You'll be waxing your own natural cotton wicks to include in your 100% natural candles. Enjoy a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, tea and biscuits, and get stuck into an addictive new hobby!
Suitable for complete beginners, you will be guided through every step by Wendy, owner of The Little Craftery, and life-long crafter.
The workshop runs for approximately 1½ hours. Enjoy a chat with like minded people and learn some new skills! All materials and refreshments are included in the price.

FAQs
​
Who is the class for?
Anyone over the age of 16 is welcome! Suitable for complete beginners or those with more experience, it's a nice relaxed and friendly class.
​
What's involved?
Wendy will take you through the tools and materials you will need and the basic techniques you will learn. You’ll be able to choose the colours you would like to use for your final candles, and Wendy will show you every step of the way to creating candles to die for!
​
What's included?
The price includes everything you need: all materials and use of any necessary tools, full instruction from Wendy, and tea and coffee. You will get to take home the candles you've made. The number of candles you make will depend on the size, shape and complexity of the designs you choose, but you'll have plenty of time to make a range of candles. It's likely you will make at least 5 candles, probably more.
​
What are the design options?
When you arrive at your class, you will be given the choice of a few different colours of beeswax to use. The candle shapes and sizes will vary depending on how you cut the wax, and you can decorate and finish them to create completely unique candles. Wendy will show you all the techniques you need, to ensure that you make candles to be proud of!
​
How long will the class last?
The class will last approximately 1½ hours. It’s best to allow a little extra time as classes sometimes over-run depending on group sizes.
​
Where is the class held?
Classes are held in The Little Craftery in Field Row, Worthing, which is designed to be a functional, comfortable workspace for up to 5 participants.
