Create your own beautifully scented botanical candle, decorated with delicate dried and pressed flowers.
In this relaxed, beginner-friendly workshop, you will be guided through the entire candle-making process, starting with the creative decoration of your glass container.
Choose from a selection of ready-prepared dried and pressed flowers, then carefully arrange them inside the glass to create your own individual botanical design. Once your flowers are in place, you will prepare your wick, choose your fragrance, and pour a specially selected soy wax blend into the decorated container.
As the wax sets, your floral design remains visible through the glass, creating a beautiful candle that is entirely your own.
Your tutor, an experienced florist and flower preservation specialist, will also share tips on how to dry and press flowers using both traditional and modern techniques, giving you inspiration for future creative projects.
During the workshop, you will learn:
  • How to arrange dried and pressed flowers inside a glass candle container.
  • Tips for creating an attractive botanical design.
  • How to prepare and position your candle wick.
  • The benefits of working with a soy wax blend.
  • How to choose and add your preferred fragrance.
  • Techniques for mixing and pouring wax.
  • How to dry and press flowers for future projects.
  • Finishing touches and candle care guidance.
Everything you need is provided, including your glass candle container, wax blend, wick, fragrance, and a selection of ready-prepared dried and pressed flowers.
No experience is necessary. Whether you are looking for a relaxing creative activity, a thoughtful handmade gift, or a new craft to enjoy at home, you will leave with your own personalised scented botanical candle.

Welcome to Jenni Wren Designs. Jenni Wren is a childhood nickname, as a nod to my inspiration, my family.
My family were all creatives, from my grandmother, who was never without her crochet hook, my mother, an avid gardener and to my father, an artist, master craftsman and jeweller whose paintings adorn my walls. I grew up watching the amazing transformation of precious metals to beautiful, bespoke pieces of art. I love the creative process, taking the bare essentials and creating something of beauty, whether it be functional or decorative.
I started my first business at 20 in dried flowers and soon moved onto retail with shops in fresh and dried flowers in South Africa. I emigrated to the UK and shortly after began two further retail outlets, one of which was on the famous Kings Road in Chelsea, with many celebrity clients. I now divide my time between my studios in the UK and Spain where I live completely off-grid within a protected nature reserve. I host wildflower walks and foraging workshops where we weave and make beautiful wreaths and other items from scratch.
Happily, online courses and craft kits allow so many people to enjoy getting creative. It gives me great joy and satisfaction to see the expressions of pride on the faces of the people who create with my kits and classes.
Come with me on this journey and let us create together.
