Workshops / Signature Candles & Tea Souvenir Making
Signature Candles & Tea Souvenir Making
Your unhurried afternoon of scent, tea and creating something with your own hands. Our most-loved experience. The perfect first visit.
You step in from the heat of the Waterkant into a room that smells of herbs, wood and something sweet. A cool glass of tea is placed in your hand. Your host guides you, but never rushes you. You choose. You blend. You pour. And while your candle sets, you realise you haven't checked your phone once.
An afternoon in two cups
First, the kettle.
Your tray is ready when you sit down: a pot of tea, fine porcelain and something sweet on the side. Sip slowly. The afternoon has only just begun.
And this is how you leave.

“My sister and I kept saying 'we should do something together'. We expected a fun craft morning, but it turned out to be so much more. When we set our intentions while mixing the wax, we both ended up in tears, the good kind. A candle is light, and light gives hope, and that's exactly how we left.”
