Breathe by Jo began with candles.
During lockdown, I started making them at home, partly for something to do, partly because I needed something beautiful and slow in my hands. What started as a kitchen experiment became a small business, and eventually the seed of everything Breathe by Jo has grown into.
Hand-poured soy wax candles made with essential oils and absolutely no nasties, guaranteed.

Candle-making workshops
Come and have a couple of hours away from the to-do list.
You'll learn the fundamentals of candle making, preparing your container, working with soy wax, and then the really fun part: blending your own unique combination of essential oils. There's no wrong way to do it. Blend to what makes your nose happy.
Whilst your candle is curing, we'll have a cuppa and a slice of something yummy. Your beautiful candle goes home with you at the end.
Herbal teas and light refreshments included. No experience needed. Just come as you are.
Workshops run from Cutthorpe Institute, Chesterfield.
Next workshop is:
Saturday 21st November 2 - 4pm
