Join us for Kind Candles first candle making workshop!

Whether you’re a local or a tourist visiting Edinburgh for the Fringe, this 1-hour workshop offers a perfect opportunity to relax, be creative and escape from the hustle and bustle of Edinburgh for a little while…

I’m so excited to share an introduction to candle making with you. You will:

Discover the basics of candle making
Learn about wicks, oils and candle care 101
Choose your candle scent from Kind Candles signature scent library
Pour your personalised, eco-conscious tin candle (and name it too!) to take home*
Receive a discount on Kind Candles products
*Candles take 1-2 hours to set which means you won’t be able to take your candle home instantly after the workshop. If you want to enjoy your gorgeous creation ASAP, you are welcome to pop back to collect it from Festival City Market, or I am happy to pop it in the post to you too!
