What you’ll experience

Step into the world of pure beeswax.
You’ll learn the traditional art of hand-dipped and molded candle making, discovering how natural beeswax is prepared, softened, and shaped. Step by step, you’ll create your own candles, dipped tapers or shaped pieces, to take home.

We’ll talk about the beauty and sustainability of beeswax, natural coloring with plant pigments, and tips for safely burning and caring for handmade candles.

No prior experience is needed; this is a relaxing, hands-on craft for anyone who enjoys slow, mindful making.

The space

Our studio, Traisto, is a small and welcoming slow-craft workshop in Nafplio. Here you’ll find hand-dipped candles, naturally dyed textiles, and woven pieces that inspire the experience.
