Glow Up: Candle Painting Workshop – customise your own colourful pillar candle Add a personal touch to your space with a hand-painted candle that’s all your own. In this calming and creative workshop, you’ll be given an 11-hour burn pillar candle to decorate with your own unique design—perfect for gifting, displaying, or brightening up your bedside table. You’ll be using easy-to-handle candle painting pens to draw directly onto the wax, making it simple to create clean lines, patterns, or lettering. For those who want to get extra creative, there are also sponges, stencils, and paintbrushes available to help bring your vision to life. We’ll provide plenty of design inspiration to get you started, and all materials are included. While you can’t light the candles while on campus, they’ll be fully dry and ready to take home in your own paper bag for display—or to enjoy later in a cosy setting. Come solo or bring a friend and leave with a beautifully decorated candle that’s completely one of a kind.
