Candle Making Course at Butterfly Barn Studio

The next level

Description

My name is Kathy, I run a small business called Butterfly Barn Studio in the beautiful Hampshire countryside. I first got into candle making after I suffered a spinal cord injury and played at home, I used to work in pharmacy so had a clear understanding of the science behind the creation of fragranced candles. I ran some free courses and the feedback was amazing - here's a few comments about the course Bonnie - Attended a candle making workshop today and had a lovely time. Informative, yet fun in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Beautiful items for sale and to make. Would highly recommend. Fenella - Went to a fabulous workshop where I was taught candle making. I had a brilliant time, Kathy was kind, patient and enthusiastic and I was thrilled with my finished candle. The barn has lots of lovely things to buy and customise and it’s well worth a visit! A true little gem! So why not come along and learn how to make luxury fragranced candles and take your creation home to show your friends and family, A fun and relaxed atmosphere with Tea and Coffee as well as cupcakes! Select a day and message your preferred 2 hour time slot and I will do my best to accommodate you into the workshop

"Kathy is an expert in making candles. She made sure that the material we were using was safe. We came all the way from Hong Kong to join Kathy's course. We enjoyed it very much and my children were so happy. We made two kinds of candles with different techniques that Kathy taught us. Thank you for Kathy giving us a very enjoyable day. "

"Kathy was a very knowledgeable and patient instructor, who took the time to explain all elements to us. She was well prepared and had even created special dated booklets for the specific session. We created a fragranced candle, some beautiful wax melts and then printed our own design on a soy candle. Throughout, Kathy was very patient and allowed us to include little extras such as crystals and ribbon to make them look even more special. Fantastic session and highly recommend. "

"Really enjoyable couple of hours learning how to make candles, and actually making some ourselves that we were able to take home. So many scents to choose from, and the candles we've made smell amazing. Also did other crafty things, such as printing designs to adhere onto pillar candles. Would recommend to people who enjoy candles and want to get to know how to make them yourself!"
