Festive Soap & Sip: a fun way to learn how to make your own soap gifts

Description

On this fun, Soap & Sip class you will learn how to make your own organic, 'melt and pour' mini-soaps using an organic, vegan glycerine base.

Jenny from The Scottish Soapworks will share the benefits of the essential oils she uses in her tried and tested recipe, and show you how to make your own soap using a simple method, and affordable equipment.

All materials are included, and during the break you can enjoy a complimentary glass of fizz!* Non-alcoholic drink options will also be available. You will take home all the soap shapes you make on the night - and, if you can bear to part with any of them, they also make great wee gifts!

Festive stocking filler option*

Our November date will feature festive moulds and gift wrap so you can make some Christmas gifts if you wish. We will offer up a complimentary Buck's Fizz for those who enjoy a seasonal tipple, along with a selection of coffees and speciality Shibui teas.

Bring a friend and save

We love it when people opt for a creative night out with friends, colleagues and family. We have a special offer on all our Soap & Sip classes when you book two spaces at the same time. To benefit from this offer, select the Bring a Friend option when booking a second space.

More information 

The Arienas Collective workshops, courses and events are run from a supportive and welcoming home-based environment within a Georgian mews home in Edinburgh’s City Centre New Town. We invite you to join us, leave any day-to-day worries behind, and immerse yourself in being creative.

Spaces on our workshops and courses are limited so that our creative team of artists and makers can offer you the hands-on help and support you need to make the most of your time with us. 

All the equipment and materials you will need are included in the price, unless stated otherwise, plus light refreshments (a selection of Shibui teas, coffee, hot chocolate, and sweet or savoury snacks). On full day workshops you are welcome to bring your own lunch to eat inside or out; or there are a wide range of independent sit-in or takeaway delis, cafés, and restaurants, plus supermarkets, within a 5-10 minute walk.

PLEASE NOTE: Our workshop space is on the first-floor of a Georgian mews building and unfortunately we do not have lift access. The workshop space is in our home which is not nut free. Please let us know of any skin or food allergies before booking.

Private workshop bookings

Most of our workshops are also available to book for small private get-togethers; themed wedding and birthday celebrations; corporate team building and well-being purposes; and as in-store retail events. For larger groups, many of our workshops can be brought to a location of your choice. 

Age restrictions

Our workshops are planned with adults in mind. Many are suitable for teenagers, but some may require under 16s to be accompanied for insurance purposes. Please check with us before booking.
