About this Event
Paint it. Scent it. Pour it. Light it. 🎃
Get cosy this Halloween and create your very own hand-painted mini pumpkin scented candle in our Glasgow city centre studio.
You’ll decorate your pumpkin candle pot, choose a fragrance you love, then learn how to turn it into your own scented candle using a beeswax and soy wax blend.
Cute, spooky, colourful or completely chaotic — your pumpkin is yours to design.
No painting or candle-making experience needed.
🎃 What you'll do
During this 1.5–2 hour workshop, you’ll:
🎨 Paint and decorate your own pumpkin candle pot
🌸 Choose your favourite fragrance
🕯️ Prepare your wick and candle
🍯 Pour your own beeswax & soy wax candle
✨ Finish with a one-of-a-kind Halloween candle to take home
We’ll guide you through the whole process step by step, so this workshop is completely beginner-friendly.
We’ll also have Halloween design inspiration available if you’re not sure where to start — think ghosts, pumpkins, stars, stripes, flowers, funny faces, spooky patterns and more.
Or ignore all of that and make something completely your own.
🕯️ What you'll take home
One hand-painted, handmade pumpkin scented candle created by you.
It’s Halloween décor you can actually light — and something you’ll want to keep long after the workshop is over.
