Scents Bar: Candle Making Workshop | Sip & Pour

What better way to spend an evening than drinking wine and playing with scents? Join us at our store & studio in Port Douglas to blend, pour and walk away with your very own handmade candle!

During the two hours workshop, we’ll walk you through the basics of candle making. Our Scents Bar is designed to be a fun memorable day out rather than a heavily detailed training on making candles. You’ll get a hands-on experience, learning about different types of waxes available for candle making, wick, set and label your vessel, and how to create your one-of-a-kind scent - it’s perfect for beginners!

Each workshop comes with:

  • Experienced local chandler
  • A personalised medium scented soy wax candle to bring home - we use 100% natural soy wax and wood wick for our candle
  • We have 90+ fragrance, absolute, and essential oils to choose from to create your unique scents
  • All the materials needed to make your candle
  • A relaxed and air conditioned studio space
  • A complimentary wine and nibbles - coffee, tea, still & sparkling water also available (all of our Candle Making Workshops are BYO friendly - feel free to bring your bevies, we have glassware available)
  • Bonus! You'll receive a 10% discount for any Scents Journey products that you’d like to purchase on the day (eftpos is available)

What you need to bring:

  • A sense of curiosity and creativity
  • Comfortable clothes (we will supply you with an apron to wear during the session)

It's the perfect date night, a great shared experience alongside your mates or family, or enjoyed on your own. Each session is limited to 6 people to allow space, time, and scent consultation to each participant. Please arrive a few minutes early so that we can start the workshop on time.

We also offer private bookings for a special couple date, or group events in our studio or your chosen location (for a group of four and more) - please send us a message, and let us know what day and time would work best for your group through our contact form or email to hello@scentsjourney.com.
