About the event
The Swiss Made Creation workshop welcomes you to make and decorate your very own candle.
Dip the wick into the melted wax and watch your candle take shape, layer by layer. Then comes the decoration, wherever your inspiration takes you. Allow around thirty minutes to leave with a unique, handmade candle to brighten your festive evenings.
Everyone is welcome, with children taking part under the supervision of an adult. The price depends on the weight of your candle (CHF 4.30 per 100 g). The workshop awaits you indoors and in the warm, in the exhibition room of the Office du Tourisme (tourist office) in Gruyères.
