Discover the Magic of Candle-Making Workshops in London
If you think candle making is just melting wax in a jar, think again. At We Candle It, we believe candle making is an art form - one that’s fun, creative, relaxing, and absolutely not boring.
Tucked away in South East London, our private candle-making workshops have been winning hearts with their unique Korean-inspired designs, cosy studio atmosphere, and the joy of creating something truly beautiful with your own hands.
Whether you’re planning a hen party, birthday celebration, team-building event, or just looking for a creative day out in London, here’s why our workshops might be your new favourite activity.
1. You’ll Make Candles That Are Works of Art
Forget plain white wax. In our workshops, you can create cat-themed candles, realistic cake candles, floating flower reed diffusers, and more. Inspired by Korean candle art, our designs are as Instagram-worthy as they are gift-worthy.
2. It’s Private, Personal, and Perfect for Groups
Unlike big, open classes, our workshops are private bookings only. That means you and your group get the whole studio to yourselves, with personal guidance every step of the way. We host 2–6 guests in our cosy Woolwich studio, and for larger groups, we can bring the workshop to your location.
3. You Don’t Need Any Experience
Never made a candle before? Perfect. We’ll show you everything you need to know - from pouring wax to adding colours, textures, and decorations. You’ll leave with a candle that looks like it came straight from a boutique shop.
4. It’s More Than a Craft—It’s Therapeutic
Candle making slows you down. The process of measuring, melting, pouring, and decorating becomes a mindful escape from busy city life. Many of our guests say it feels just as calming as lighting the finished candle itself.
5. You’ll Leave With More Than Just a Candle
Yes, you’ll take home your handmade candle, but you’ll also leave with happy memories, shared laughter, and maybe even a new hobby.
Perfect For:
💍 Hen Parties – Fun, creative, and a little bit fabulous.
🎂 Birthdays – Swap cake for candles you can keep.
🏢 Team-Building Events – Bring creativity into the workplace.
🌼 Creative Days Out – A hands-on experience to enjoy with friends or family.
