The Candle Alchemist is an independent Candle & Craft Studio located in rural Anglesey – just 3 miles from Newborough. We make and sell all our candles from here and run pre-booked Candlemaking Workshops.
For those wanting to learn more about a variety of different candlemaking techniques we run structured Candlemaking Workshops. These last anywhere between 2 to 3 hours (depending on your choice of workshop) and for this you will need to book in advance.
We also welcome group bookings for Birthday Parties, Hen Parties, Baby Showers, Team Building, or simply a get-together with a few friends!
Beginners Candle Workshops are available to book all year round – just contact us to make your booking.
At The Candle Alchemist we have a passion for Candles – designing them, making them and teaching fun workshops!
Designer and maker, Anita, moved to the Isle of Anglesey in 2015 to fulfil her dream of opening her own Candle Making Studio in a former Victorian schoolhouse. A lifelong crafter and maker, she began candlemaking many years ago in Cheshire, and knew immediately she had found her passion! As Anita puts it “wax has endless possibilities of shape, colour and texture – for me the process of designing candles is quite magical”
Opening the Candle and Craft Studio on Anglesey has allowed Anita the opportunity to share her passion with others. She now teaches Workshops to individuals and groups wanting to learn candlemaking, a craft that appeals to adults and children across all age groups.
The studio is also where she creates and her own unique artisan candles which are available to purchase in the small studio shop.
