Join us in Margate for an August essential oil candle-making workshop.
August workshops are a relaxed introduction to using essential oils and natural wax to create botanical candles. We will guide you through experimenting with the oils to make a bespoke scent blend before hand-pouring your own candle to take home.
We will also discuss why we prefer using natural ingredients in the home, the difference between fragrance and essential oils, different wax types, and how scent stimulates the olfactory system, evoking memories and helping to create new ones. We will also provide candle care tips.
We like our workshops to be welcoming and inclusive, so if you have any requests, sensory preferences, or need more detailed information, just send me a message in advance - I'll be happy to accommodate. Please also note that the workshops take place in queer-friendly spaces.

Please note: Public dates for this class require at least 2 guests to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, we may cancel the session; if that happens, we'll inform you and let you choose between a refund or reschedule, so please watch your email/SMS one day prior to the class.
What you'll get
You will make a 120ml candle scented with your own blend of essential oils. We do offer different sizes and vessels, so please get in touch prior to the workshop to discuss if you would like to explore options (which may incur an additional cost).

August run regular Essential Oil Candle Workshops from our calm space in Margate and miłość gallery, in London.
I was taught the craft of candle making by my grandparent Sylvia when i was younger -- ten years ago those skills were revisited when I discovered how hard it was to find truly natural candles without any synthetic fragrances for my own home. I have honed the craft and developed my own range of plant wax candles scented exclusively with pure essential oils. I have enjoyed teaching candle making for the last 8 years and take pride in creating a relaxed and inclusive atmosphere in our workshops.
August -- inspired by art, nature and queer culture.
