About DIY Crafting Workshops
Why Make It Yourself?
There’s something special about creating with your own hands. I love seeing people walk in as beginners and walk out saying, “Arre, main bhi bana sakta hoon!” (Wow, I can make this too!). My workshops are all about fun, creativity, and learning together without stress.
What I Offer
I run hands-on candle making classes, natural soap crafting sessions, and DIY beauty workshops at my studio in Ashok Vihar. You’ll be mixing, pouring, and designing everything yourself – I’m just there to guide and cheer you on.
- Candle making: Start with simple jar candles, then try sculpted shapes like teddy bears and bouquets. We use pure soy wax, not paraffin, kyunki black fumes bilkul pasand nahi (because I really don’t like black fumes).
- Dessert candles: My favourite – you’ll make treats like cupcake candles and ladoo candles, with whipped wax and chocolate drips.
- Soap making: Try melt & pour for beginners, or go deeper with cold process. You’ll learn the science and some old-school tips from nani-dadi (grandma remedies) but with a twist.
- DIY beauty: Make scrubs and bath bombs with organic stuff.
For Everyone
Whether you’re a total beginner, want a creative group activity, or thinking of starting a small DIY business, you’ll find something here. I share business startup tips too, including packaging tricks and vendor contacts.
All materials are covered and you take home your creations, plus notes and snacks. Just bring your imagination!

My Story
Hi, I’m Priyanka, founder of Nebesa. Candle making and child psychology, weird combo, right? But that’s me! My journey started with two candles a day, now it’s a hundred. Being a mom in a big joint family, I know what real care means. My baby care stuff? It’s pretty much nani-dadi ke nuskhe ka modern version (grandma’s wisdom, just fresher). Everything’s safe, natural, and made like I’d make for my own kid.
