About this class
Scented candles are very trendy right now. With absolute justification. Our sense of smell is almost the fastest route to our emotional brain. This allows fragrances to have a positive effect on us in a very short time. Citrus notes can help you concentrate and spread a good mood. Lavender can relax us. The scent of YlangYlang can have a balancing effect on our mind, rosemary can strengthen us. And some scents simply remind us of wonderful moments and can quickly lift our spirits.

What you’ll do in the class
Unfortunately, most conventional candles are made from paraffin (petroleum-based) or stearin (palm oil and animal fats), are largely imported from China, contain artificial fragrances that are neither good for our bodies nor for the environment and have a terrible ecological balance. In this workshop, you will make 2 very personal scented candles from sustainable rapeseed wax. The wax for our candles comes from Europe, is naturally vegan, 100% biodegradable and the essential oils we use are 100% pure and organic. This makes these beautiful scented candles an extremely sustainable product.
After a basic introduction to the various essential oils and how to use the wax, we go straight to melting and pouring. Create your very own favorite scent and dive into the world of essential oils.
With the help of flowers and herbs, your scented candles become your very personal work of art. It will be even more sustainable if you bring old beautiful glasses from home, which will be given a new life through the candles.
