De workshop in detail

  • 2u
  • 6 tot 12 deelnemers
  • 12 jaar min.
  • To enlighten your daily life, you will have the opportunity to learn how to make a beautiful scented candle during this workshop with Annette and Jean-Manuel.

    They welcome you with a smile in their beautiful workshop in the heart of the magnificent racecourse of Boitsfort to discover this forgotten craft to which they devote themselves fully every day in duo.

    After having learnt about the art of candle making and the steps involved in creating the wax (types of wax, melting temperature, etc.), you will select the fragrance of your candle according to your wishes and tastes. The artisans will guide you in understanding the composition of a perfume and how to work with the olfactory pyramid. A small olfactory challenge will be launched to discover the scents of the candles present in the workshop.

    Then it's time for action! Thanks to the good advice of Annette and Jean-Manuel, you will make your own candle, which you will be able to decorate with different elements available in the workshop (stones, dried flowers, etc.).

    The artisans will give you advice on how to use the candle to make it last as long as possible, for the pleasure of everyone.

    You will leave with your creation after the workshop, as well as the essentials to make candles at home (a 250 ml measuring glass, 1 pre-waxed wick, 150 gr of soya wax, 1 instruction manual to make candles at home).

    Your candle will not fail to embellish your home magnificently while perfuming it with a sweet scent...

    Ontmoet Annette & Jean-Manuel

    Kaarsenmakers

    Annette and Jean-Manuel are bound together in love as well as in their passion for candles!

    Before discovering this art, they worked in the food industry. After some soul-searching, they decided to change careers!

    It was during an event that they met a person who would change their lives: an artisan candle maker was looking for a successor and was ready to sell all his equipment and train them! Bingo! Annette and Jean-Manuel started spending a lot of time with this artisan and became passionate about his art. A few months later, they took the equipment home and embarked on the adventure of artisanal entrepreneurship!

    Today, their creations are both beautiful and diverse! Their collection includes tea light candles, dipped candles, scented candles, poured candles and more. Each creation is unique!

    Educational, they are eager to share the techniques of their art, little known and magical, which calls up childhood memories!

    Merci pour ces deux heures d’atelier reposantes, et pour la découverte de ce savoir faire. En plus je ramène une chouette bougie à la maison…
