Why you'll love this course

Giving an experience means giving time, attention, and shared memories. The "BUDDIES" course is not just about making candles, soaps, and salts – it's an opportunity to stop, create side-by-side with a loved one, and experience the joy of creating with your own hands. In today's fast-paced world, such a moment is precious – transform an ordinary afternoon into a small ritual full of laughter, sharing, and inspiration.

During the course, you will try working with waxes without palm oil, 100% cotton wicks, and fragrance oils. Each participant will create a designer candle of their choice, decorative soap from a glycerin base with herbs, and fragrant bath salts. At the end, you will take everything home beautifully packaged – ready to delight yourself or someone else.

At the SVITSOL farm, you will experience the atmosphere of a traditional Czech workshop, where craftsmanship and personal approach are valued. The course is suitable for all age groups (from 7 years old), and no prior experience is required. All you need is a spark of curiosity – we'll take care of the rest.

Candle Care and Purchase

During the course, we will teach you how to properly care for candles: trim the wick to 5–7 mm before each lighting and let the candle burn for a maximum of 2–3 hours at a time to create a continuous wax pool. These principles will extend the lifespan of your products and ensure safe use at home.
