You want to make beautiful candles — whether for yourself or to start your own business — but you're not sure where to begin, or how to take your skills to the next level. I get it. When I left British Airways 18 years ago, candle making started as a hobby at my kitchen table. Since then, it’s grown into a business creating private-label candles for luxury hotels across Scotland and London — and teaching over 1,000 students in my studio. Today, with 10 online courses and students in over 20 countries, I help beginners and seasoned makers like you craft high-quality candles from home and build profitable candle businesses with confidence. Whether you've never made a candle before or you're ready to launch your own brand, I’ll guide you every step of the way. With the right skills, tools, and support — you can absolutely do this. Let’s get started on your candle-making journey — and turn your passion into something truly amazing.
