"I went to do this course with my friend. We really enjoyed doing this very informative and friendly course with Ann. We have been overwhelmed with her generosity both in terms of her willingness to share her knowledge and the amazing amount of creations you take away from the classes. Ann is a great tutor and we've learned so much on that day. Thank you! Babita Gurung & Rusam Gurung."

"This workshop is brilliant. Anne is a lovely, friendly lady and teacher. Loved the variety of candles we got to make and that we could choose our own scents and colours. Can’t wait to put it into practice at home. Thank you Anne x"

Peta Reynolds reviewed: Candlemaking workshops for beginners in Hastoe, nr Tring

"This course was excellent! Having done lots of research online about candle making I decided there were just too many contradictions about what you should and shoulder do, which resulted in my having questions about every stage of the process that really needed to be answered by someone who fully understood what happens and why. I attended this course early October 2020, and everything was COVID-Secure. Everything was set out for individual learning, and practical-based: there was no handbook to follow, just listening and doing which was great. (You do get a handbook by email after the course.) There was plenty of opportunity to ask questions, no matter how stupid they may have seemed to me (Ann didn't let oif they were stupid). Very importantly I got to smell every candle scent Ann had, which I know will have saved me a fortune in mis-purchased scents as what you think you're going to like you actually dont, and vice versa. I came home with a pillar candle, a jar candle, a tin candle, three metal tealights, two shaped tealights and six wax melts. By the end of the course I went away quite confident that i could make candles by myself without harming myself or the intended recipients, which is the best outcome you could want! Very happy, and excellent value for money. Thank you Ann!"

"I had a personal lesson with Anne before Christmas and the lesson was excellent. Due to various reasons I haven't been able to make any candles as yet, however I am confident with the guidance notes that Anne provided that I will be able to give this a go and get creative. We made some lovely festive candles and I thoroughly enjoyed this creative lesson. Would highly recommend Anne's class and look forward to attending some future workshops."

Gill Chalkley reviewed: Candle making workshops for beginners - St Albans, Hertfordshire

"Really enjoyable course making several different types of candle including pillar, container, tealight and wax melts. Anne is a very knowledgeable and patient teacher and I will certainly be signing up to her advanced candlemaking course. I also liked the fact that it was only a small class of 7 participants allowing for individual attention if needed."

Kat reviewed: Candlemaking workshops for beginners in Hastoe, nr Tring

"Having done the basic candle making workshop with Anne, I felt confident that the advanced candle making workshop would be just as interesting and I wasn't disappointed. Anne patiently showed us how to place wooden wicks and explained their burning tendencies, explained how to choose wicks for multi-wick candles and demonstrated the cooling time of beeswax. I now have several gorgeously scented candles and wax melts! Very happy!"

The course is run in a beautiful village church hall with excellent parking, easy to find.
