Kick-start the festive season with an afternoon of creativity, fragrance and a little indulgence at this Christmas candle-making workshop in Bristol with Monijo Garnet Gifts. You'll create your very own luxuriously scented candle to keep or give as a special handmade Christmas gift.
Under Monijo Garnet's guidance, you'll discover the basics of candle making and create a candle that's uniquely yours. Because it's Christmas, you'll also add a few festive touches along the way. Complimentary cookies, chocolate and a glass of bubbly are served while you work, and your finished candle comes presented in a lovely box, making it feel every bit as special as the experience itself.
This isn't your ordinary craft workshop. It's a few hours away from the usual hustle and bustle, surrounded by lovely fragrances, Christmas creativity and good company. Come with your best friend, bring your mum, sister or daughter, make it a girls' afternoon, or come on your own and meet some new people. Whichever way you go, it's a chance to enjoy a little festive indulgence before the Christmas rush begins.

My love for scented candles inspired me to start making my own candles and experimenting with other beautiful home fragrance products. What began as a creative hobby soon grew into something much more, friends and family would often compliment how wonderful my candles smelled, and that encouragement inspired me to create Monijo Garnet Gifts.
What started just over a year ago has grown into a handmade luxury gifting and lifestyle brand, with my candles becoming firm favourites and best sellers at fairs and markets.
I love creating fragrances that make a home feel warm, welcoming and beautifully scented, and I’m passionate about sharing that experience with others. My candle-making workshops are relaxed, creative and hands-on, giving you the opportunity to have fun, explore your creativity and learn the basics of making your own beautifully scented candle.
I use eco-friendly and vegan-friendly materials wherever possible, sourced from responsible and ethical suppliers.
Whether you're completely new to candle making or simply looking for a fun and creative experience, I look forward to welcoming you and sharing my passion for candles with you!
