Guided by your expert candle making teacher, you'll learn how to craft four of your own candles from start to finish, melting your wax, selecting colours and choosing scents to suit you. Select from a range of essential oils to add fragrances to your candles - choose from uplifting, calming or refreshing scents to suit your mood. Or go cool and classic with some unscented candle making! You'll also be able to add pressed flowers to your candles to decorate and personalise them - creating four candles entirely bespoke to you.

Recent reviews of Scented Candle Making Class

  • 5/5 from Stephen Cohen, attended Apr 2026: What a delightful experience! We came from the States looking for a fun craft activity and this surpassed the mark. The instructors were lovely and made candle making feel very accessible and fun. Thanks for a great morning!
  • 5/5 from Laura, attended Mar 2026: We had an amazing time at the candle making workshop. It’s such a beautiful location (great for a day trip) and we had everything we needed to leave with four beautiful candles each - from friendly teaching to scents to colours to coffee and cake! Highly recommend.
  • 5/5 from Adam Farrant, attended Mar 2026: Such a wonderful location and cosy hospitality. We loved making the candles and eating delicious cake. Would highly highly recommend - we will definitely be booking more classes!
  • 5/5 from Kim Antonia, attended Feb 2026: What a relaxed and thoroughly enjoyable course. We were made very welcome. Emma was an excellent teacher, giving sufficient but not too much tuition plus lots of encouragement. We were both thrilled with our four scented candles!
  • 5/5 from Sally Mancell, attended Nov 2021: Really enjoyed the Scented Candle Workshop at Larkswold. Emma was very welcoming and the marquee had a lovely ambiance and was warm and cosy. I learned all about the colours and fragrances and which ones mixed well together Also learned how to apply dried flowers and leaves to the inside of the glass before pouring the wax. I am inspired to make candles for my friends at Christmas and have ordered my wax, wicks and thermometer already! Delicious home baked cakes and coffee were included and I learned some of the history of the area. Would definitely recommend trying a class of any sort by the river at Larkswold!

Run by best friends, Melinda and Emma, Larkswold has a range of amazing crafts for you to enjoy. They aim to bring warmth, joy and rejuvenation to all their classes so you can feel refreshed. Based in the Cotswolds they love the natural beauty of the landscape and love nothing better than a walk with a well-behaved dog (!) followed by a nice sit-down with a cuppa & a slice of cake!
