Candle Making Workshop

This is the only candle making workshop on the East of Scotland

I am delighted to be able to share a couple of hours running candle making workshops for each person in a class of four to learn how to make natural Eco soy candles at home using the finest ingredients.

You will learn basic candle making skills so that you can make your friends gifts for Christmas or that special unique hand made birthday present. I give away all my candle making tips (well almost all of them). I do have a couple of secrets that make my candles unique that i just can’t give away.

Candle making safety, scenting, wicks, containers, lighting tips will all be shared in this comprehensive workshop.

You will take away two beautiful scented candles (and yes they will be stunning) of two different sizes and enjoy tea or Prosecco and freshly baked scones while the candles are setting and you revel in your new found candle making skill. Prefer to buy a candle as a gift? Shop Candles

I look forward to welcoming you to ‘Candle Towers’ to spend a couple of hours of pure ‘you time’. Can’t manage the time to come to a workshop? order a Candle making kit

Each workshop which runs I donate 10% of the cost to Sreepur Village in rural Bangladesh at the same time – Gifts that Give

“I had the pleaseure of attending one of Jo’s candle making workshops in May. What a fab afternoon we all had. The location in Anstruther is great and sets the scene for a session of creativity and relaxation. From meeting the other lovely ladies to choosing our scents. Measuring, melting and pouring at the right temperature, not forgetting to keep the wick straight. It was altogether a lovely way to spend a few hours. The glass of prosecco & home made scones were a great finish. When i light one of the candles, it’s a lovely fragrant reminder of a lovely experience.” L Mercer

“Had an amazing time at Jo Macfarlane’s candle workshop today. The candles are amazing, I’m so thrilled with them. The class is both informative and an eye opener. Thanks a million for your hospitality and patience. A must do for anyone who loves candles and general craft!” – CM Diaz
