Last year, we were delighted to welcome Rachael from Wharfdale Soaps for a couple of melt & pour shea butter soap workshops.
Bringing with her a range of gorgeous essential oils, dried flowers and other natural materials, Rachael showed us how to create the most fragrant and beautiful soaps to take home.
Both sessions went down a storm, with guests excited to show off their brilliant creations, try something new, meet other people and enjoy a spot of coffee and cake in the gardens.
So, we're very excited to welcome Rachael back for 3 sessions in 2025!
One session in May will focus more on Spring scents and style and the June and July soaps will have more of a Summer vibe. But both will teach you about the raw materials of soap making, how to use the moulds and mix the different blends of scents and natural exfoliants. You have the chance to get creative as you add the finish touches and package up your soaps with ribbons and labels. You you get to take all your wonderful creations home to enjoy, or share with others - they make excellent gifts!
Tickets also include coffee or tea and cake, as well as admission to the Yorkshire Lavender gardens to it makes for a lovely, wholesome day out - filled wiht beautiful scenes, smells and relaxing atmosphere.
We do hope you can join us!
Fancy a go yourself?
Here are the details of this year's sessions:
Here's what a few of our guests had to say about last year's sessions:
"My friend and I had an absolutely lovely time at the workshop and were delighted with the soaps we made. There was a friendly atmosphere, the instructions were clear and easy to follow , and nothing was too much trouble for Rachael. Add to this tea, cake and beautiful surroundings it was a perfect afternoon."
"Rachel was lovely. She gave us all clear instructions to make some amazing soaps. I've gifted most of mine as the gift wrap and tags were so pretty. Along with the stickers with all the ingredients on, once we'd finished we had a very professional product. A thoroughly enjoyable day and worth the 2hr drive to get to you"
"I thoroughly enjoyed the soap making workshop on 9th May. I've never done anything like this before but Rachael gave us clear instructions and was very helpful and supportive throughout. I was very impressed with the end results and I would encourage anyone to have a go - it's a really fun way to spend a few hours in a wonderful setting. Plus the tea and cake was a nice bonus!"
