Soothe Your Senses

with Laura Wencker

Discover the calming process of hand-dipped candles, a deeply meditative practice that taps into your creativity while letting you unwind. Welcomed by the subtle scent of warm honey, you’ll quickly realise this immersive sensory experience begins the moment you walk through the door.

Inviting you inside her cosy creative kitchen, take a seat around Laura Wencker’s craft table filled with beautiful designer beeswax candles. Inspiring you with the many possibilities, Laura begins the workshop with a brief introduction to the art of candle making and a demonstration of the satisfying technique.

Plunging an organic cotton wick into 100% natural melted beeswax, Laura will show you how to layer the wax to build the perfect thickness. As each coat cools, watch your candle take shape, developing a warm, golden hue that burns cleanly and lasts longer than other materials.

Throughout the workshop, you’ll have the freedom to experiment with different shapes, sizes, and textures, crafting pieces that are not only beautiful, but functional.

Laura’s class provides space to step back, destress, and connect with your senses, leaving you with six unique candles to brighten your home and reignite memories of your time in Valldemossa.
