🕯️ Wax Melt Workshop in Bishop’s Stortford – Create Your Own Custom Wax Melts! 🕯️
22 May @ 8:00 PM – 10:00 PM
Looking for a fun, creative way to brighten up your evening?
Join us on Thursday, 22 May at 8 PM for a beautiful wax melt-making workshop at The SkinSoak Studio, just outside Bishop’s Stortford. Whether you’re new to wax melts or already a fan of natural home fragrance, this workshop offers a soothing escape filled with scent, creativity, and connection.
This hands-on session is perfect for beginners, crafters, and anyone who enjoys mindful activities and working with natural ingredients. It’s an ideal way to relax after a long day, tap into your creativity, and take home something truly personal.
🌿 What You’ll Learn:
This eco-friendly wax melt workshop is designed around wellbeing, sustainability, and scent exploration. You’ll be guided step-by-step through the process of crafting your own fragrant wax melts, using natural waxes and pure essential oils.
By the end of the evening, you’ll feel confident in:
âś… Working with plant-based wax and understanding how wax melts differ from candles
âś… Blending essential oils to create personalised scent combinations
âś… Using moulds and natural colourants for unique visual effects
âś… Adding dried flowers, botanicals, or shimmer for decorative flair
âś… Tuning into your senses through mindful making
Whether you love soothing lavender, zesty citrus, or grounding herbs, you’ll create a blend that’s totally “you.”
💆‍♀️ Why Wax Melt-Making is Great for Wellbeing
Crafting is a powerful way to de-stress, and wax melt-making adds an extra layer of calm through scent and sensory engagement. The gentle process of blending oils and pouring wax helps your mind slow down and reconnect.
Essential oils like chamomile, orange, or rosemary can also help balance emotions and ease anxiety—making this evening a true act of self-care.
