Sarah Ditchfield's candle-making journey started after her husband bought her a candle-making kit one Christmas. She developed her skills and began to experiment with different types of waxes, dyes and fragrances. Sarah sold many of her initial creations to independent shops, hotels and restaurants.
In 2012, Sarah launched her company, Candle by Events, which runs candle-making workshops for individuals and organizations. Her company also runs corporate events, parties and family fun days, all around candle-making, at locations across the UK. Besides in-person workshops, Candle by Events also produces candle-making kits and runs live online candle-making workshops.

Ive never made candles before yet I buy loads! I never find that perfect Christmas scent as they never seem strong enough or get discontinued the next year! So l have plenty of empty candle jars with loads of lumps of wax around so l really need to make my own dont l! So l was selected to review this book to leave an honest review and this is it buy it! At the beginning of the book it goes through tools and materials with info about various waxes, holders, wicks, colours and other bits. Then it talks about techniques and safety which is followed on my the recipes. At the end of the book is a troubleshooting section. I feel confident that once the wicks arrive l shall be able to make a few decent candles.
What a lovely book. Simple easy to follow instructions, that cover all the stages of candle making and wonderful projects that are clearly explained and well illustrated. I can't wait to get started.
