Christine De Ionno reviewed: Beginners Candle Making Course with Afternoon Tea in Bexley London / Kent

"This was the first of Paula’s excellent workshops that I have attended. There was much to learn as making perfect candles is not easy. Paula guided us through the process from start to finish and we all went home with 2 beautifully-fragranced soy candles. The learning environment was relaxed and fun and it was a special day for me and my colleague – both of us were taking time out of our very busy work schedules. I would recommend the workshop to anyone who wants to de-stress from work or other difficult events or just for fun."

Emma McRae reviewed: Beginners Soap Making Course with Afternoon Tea in Bexley London / Kent

"An excellent class for all budding soap makers. Paula is one of the best teachers I have come across and she is extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of soap making and the beauty business. She challenged me to create my own recipes instead of following the trends and helped me to have a greater understanding of soap making as an art. I highly recommend this course, as its not only very fun and informative but the cream tea after is delicious! This course is worth every penny and I will be coming back for more at some point."

Old Bexley Soap & Candle Co. responded:

" Thank you for this lovely feedback Emma, enjoy your soaps they looked great!. Any questions in the future please get in touch. Regards, Paula"

"I had so much fun, Paula is so friendly, she made me fell incredibly comfortable, and delivered the lesson so well, very detailed explanations, and that is what I needed. I felt like I could ask anything and didn´t need to feel shy in case it was a silly question! It is not always the way the course is written, the person who delivers and the methods are important, so thank you so much Paula!"

"The event was very successful. It was a gift I bought for my husband and for the fussy man that he is, to say that this was his best ever gift, I think puts his experience in a nutshell. He was welcomed by the teacher and the other lovely ladies that joined him in that course. Said couldn't stop talking about all the things he learnt and how knowledgeable and experienced Paula, his teacher was. I was not taking the class but was very much welcomed by the team and it felt so comfortable and relaxed. Thank you for a lovely day. I would without hesitation recommend this course to anyone."

Stephanie Jarosova reviewed: Reed diffuser making workshop

"Small, friendly, fun, and informative (plus there were delicious scones made vegan just for me which was much appreciated). The atmosphere was really relaxed and it was great fun experimenting with smells. Lots of information provided for those who wanted to add reed diffusers to their business proposition on how to do that, and lots of time for playing and smelling too. I really enjoyed my course and feel confident to go make loads of reed diffusers and home smells on my own."
