Public Workshop FAQ

Get ready to dive into the exciting world of Blaze & Foam's public workshops!  Here's the scoop on everything you need to know before embarking on your creative adventure:

 

Location

Our public workshops usually take place on Melbourne's Mornington Peninsula. The exact address varies based on the venue, so keep an eye on your booking email for the specifics. For those who prefer the coziness of home, we've got virtual workshops that beam creativity right to your space.

Time Flies When You're Crafting

Workshop durations vary, so remember to check the class description you've booked. Generally, you can expect most public workshops to run for about 60-90 minutes. That's just the right amount of time to learn, create, and enjoy!

Quality Assured

Rest easy – all the products we use are aligned with our ethical standards and high quality. Everything's vegan, palm oil-free, and phthalate-free. Our fragrance oils are FDA-approved and skin-friendly.

Ages and Stages

For our public workshops, participants need to be 16 years or older. This way, everyone can dive in and soak up the experience to the fullest.

Dress to Impress... Your Craft

We've got your back with aprons and gloves, but consider closed-toed shoes and a long-sleeve top for an extra layer of safety and comfort.

Book Ahead, Craft Ahead

Due to limited space, booking ahead is crucial for public workshops. Walk-ins might be a no-go, so make sure to secure your spot in advance. If you're bringing a friend who's not booked, give us a heads up – we're happy to chat about options.

Creations in Transit

Feel free to take your freshly crafted candles with you on the same day. While they'll be semi-set, they need a bit more time to fully solidify. We've got you covered with a cardboard tray for transport. Or if you prefer, we can arrange to ship them to you later for a fee.

Sips and Snacks

You're welcome to bring your own snacks and sips to keep those creative juices flowing.

Open Doors to All

Our venues are ground-floor and wheelchair accessible, though bathroom doors might vary in width. Your comfort is our priority, so drop us an email at info@blazeandfoam.com.au for any specific accessibility needs.

Payment 

We're flexible with payments – cash, credit cards, debit cards, and PayPal are all welcome. Just a heads up that change might not always be available on the day.

Change of Plans

Need to reschedule? Give us a shout at least 7 days before your workshop. While we can't offer refunds, we're happy to help you reschedule or issue a credit note for 12 months but only if you give 7 days notice.

Fashionably Late

Life happens. We can accommodate latecomers up to 15 minutes into the class. Just note that we won't be checking messages or calls once the workshop starts.

Scentsational Choices

We've got a phthalate free scent library ready to explore.

Wick Wisdom

Trim your wick the day after crafting. It's a good practice to let the wax solidify before snipping it with sharp scissors. Aim for a slightly longer wick rather than a super short one.

Craft Your Heart Out

Get ready to unleash your creativity, connect with a fantastic community, and have a blast at Blaze & Foam's workshops! It's all about artistic exploration, a dash of community spirit, and a whole lot of fun. Let's make some memories together!
