Diane reviewed: Beginners candle making workshop - Marlow, Buckinghamshire

"This is a beginners' course and yet by the end, we had all made a wide range of candles using different techniques, learnt about the different waxes, scents, colours and much more. Sarah is an excellent teacher, and took all ten of us through the processes step by step. Although every minute of the 3 hours was utilised (lots of concentration needed!) , it was also relaxed. A very professional approach, thank you Sarah!"

"Thank you Diane, really pleased you enjoyed the workshop."

Janet Stewart reviewed: Beginners candle making workshop - Marlow, Buckinghamshire

"What a wonderful way to spend a morning! Sarah was so warm & welcoming and explained everything so well. Such a relaxing environment, took our minds off all our worries! Our creations were so much better than I thought I'd achieve, quite a haul to bring home with me. I would thoroughly recommend this and will definitely be booking again"

Nadine B reviewed: Beginners candle making workshop - Marlow, Buckinghamshire

"A wonderful way to treat my Mum for her birthday last Saturday, we both thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon. We were impressed by Sarah’s professional approach and we were able to follow the steps to create our own beautiful candles. My only slight disappointment was that the CraftCourses description of the course says that ‘homemade cakes’ would be included in the price (we didn’t see any cakes, only self-serve hot drinks) and it would have been a nice touch as it was my Mum’s birthday. However I would highly recommend the course and my Mum and I really enjoyed our first candle making experience together."

Candle by Events responded:

"Hi Nadine, I am delighted you and your mum enjoyed the workshop. With regards to the "homemade cakes" we stopped serving these due to covid, but will look at introducing this again, once all restrictions have been lifted. I have now taken this out of the course description. Enjoy your candles."

Charlotte Thomas reviewed: Beginners candle making workshop - Marlow, Buckinghamshire

"I’d highly recommend this course if you’re keen to learn how to make candles for fun as presents for family and friends or to start a candle business. Sarah is an inspiring and professional teacher who knows her stuff - from the history of candles, the types of wax, wicks, fragrances and colours available to the various processes and where to buy the things you need to make them at home. The 3 hour course was relaxed and fun. My 13 year old daughter and I really enjoyed it and were happy to take home a bag full of various candles we’d made ourselves!"

Candle by Events responded:

"Thank you Charlotte, if you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me."

"A great way to spend a Sunday morning. Sarah is a very personable trainer who made the workshop fun and relaxing. I attended the class on my own with 3 other ladies I was made to feel very welcome and included in the chat. Following the workshop Sarah was very helpful and quick to come back with some questions I had. I'd definitely like to go to one of the Christmas workshops next. Thank you :)"

Lynda reviewed: Beginners candle making workshop - Marlow, Buckinghamshire

"We attended this workshop on a very hot afternoon, so the air conditioning was very much appreciated! We had a great afternoon, it was fun, creative and informative. Sarah paced the workshop just right for everyone there and created a lovely atmosphere among the group attending. It seems we achieved a great deal for just one afternoon, and I came away confident I had the skills to make a start on making candles at home."

Nadia Gower reviewed: Beginners candle making kit + online videos + live online workshop

"A really brilliant course. It was given to me as a Christmas present and what a fantastic experience! The kit was very well packed and included everything needed for the session. Sarah was very friendly, her explanations clear, her subject knowledge impressive. We all made a pillar candle, a container candle and rolled three candles with beeswax sheets, so felt a great sense of achievement. We had a homework assignment- to make some tea lights, which I did the following morning. Now I’m really looking forward to continue with my newfound hobby and make some gifts for my family and friends. Thank you Sarah."

Amanda chalmers reviewed: Beginners candle making kit + online video

"I done this course with Sarah and a few other ladies which was great . Sarah made sure we were all sorted with our things and gave explanations into everything. Sarah takes her time telling you instructions and waits until we're all fully aware of what we're doing. Will defo be recommending Sarah thanks again and i hope we can all keep in touch. My 12 year old daughter wants to do it as well so it would be great to do it together."

Candle by Events responded:

"Hi Amanda, thank you for your kind comments, glad you and your daughter enjoyed the workshop."
