Autumn Candle Making & Sweet Nibbles @ Jolly Nice Farm Shop

11am - Jolly Nice Farmshop, Stroud

£52 per ticket - 40 HOUR CANDLE, FREE GIFT BAG & FREE CAKES

Enjoy a crisp Autumn morning in a beautiful heated yurt in the heart of Jolly Nice's farm, in this all-natural candle making workshop, run by specialist chandler, Hannah Thompson from Time to Burn.

Experience candle making through a scientific lens: in this workshop you’ll dive into the art and science of scent creation, learning how to master blending to create a powerful, clean scent throw. You will marry natural essential oils with natural pure soy wax to make a unique 40 hour candle.

Hannah will teach you about the different types of wax and oils, giving you a good basis to go home and make your own candles. Or, if you just want a fun creative day or night out with friends, this class is perfect.

SWEET NIBBLES INCLUDED

While your candles set enjoy cake baked by the wonderful Jolly Nice chefs. Delicious coffee and tea can be purchased from the coffee shop right next door to the yurt to enjoy with your cakes! If you have any dietary requirements you will be asked to specify at check out. If you have any questions please email Hannah on hello@timetoburncandles.com 

YOUR CANDLE 

Choose from a variety of coloured handmade candle jars which we have hand crafted for the season - forest greens, oranges, deep reds, neutral stone colours and more.

You will create your own unique Autumn-scented candle made with planet-friendly soy wax and pure natural essential oils. Your natural non-toxic candle will burn for up to 40 hours and will have a lovely crackling wooden wick! The scents for Autumn and Winter are focused on warm, spicy, woody notes like frankincense, clove and sandalwood, with top notes like sweet orange. But worry not - you'll have 18 scents to choose from so there's something for every taste!  

GIFT BAG

You will also take home a little gift bag, containing unique handcrafted goodies. 

FAQs

Is there an age limit?

Guests can join from the age of 14 upwards.

What do you need to wear?

It is unlikely you will spill any oils or wax as we are working with small quantities and you have all the gear to ensure no spillages! But in the event that you do, you're welcome to wear something a little less special, so as to avoid getting it a little messy. The yurt may be an outdoorsy venue, but the heating is so good in there, we will be nice and cosy, but if you want to bring layers you are very welcome!
