How the Course Works

The course is for anyone who wants to make candles properly, whether that is for your own home, for gifts, or to sell. No experience is needed. It comes in three parts, and Rs. 2,500 covers all of them.

1. The video course, in Urdu

Everything we teach in the studio, recorded so you can watch at home and go at your own pace. Stop it, replay it, and practise between lessons. The full outline is below.

2. Our help while you practise

Message or call us when something goes wrong. If a candle tunnels, cracks or will not hold its scent, send us a photo and we will tell you what caused it. This is the part no free video on the internet can give you.

3. The studio, whenever you want it

You are welcome at our Lahore studio at no extra cost. Come and watch us pour, bring your own candles for us to look at, or work beside us until a technique clicks. Message us and we will fix a time that suits you.

Whether you are making candles for yourself, as gifts, or starting a small business, this gives you the method, the practice, and someone to ask when you get stuck.

To join, message us on WhatsApp at 0300-122-1260 and we will take it from there.

Where to Get Your Materials

Materials are not part of the Rs. 2,500 fee. You will need your own wax, wicks, fragrance and a few basic tools to practise at home between lessons, and you buy those at your own cost. We supply all of it, in small quantities as well as by the kilo, so you can start with enough for a few candles instead of committing to a sack of wax before you know whether this suits you.

See what we stock on our candle making supplies page. If you would rather understand the materials before you buy anything, read our guide to buying candle making supplies in Pakistan first. It explains how to choose a wax, size a wick to your jar and pick a fragrance oil, which is where most beginners go wrong.
