Finyal Candle Making

Participants celebrate the UAE by creating a personalised scented candle inside a ready-made Finyal cup, inspired by the traditions of Emirati hospitality and gathering.
They will select their preferred colour and fragrance before adding dye and essence to the melted wax. With guidance from the facilitator, participants will position the wick, blend their chosen elements and carefully pour the wax into the cup.
The candle will be left to cool and set, transforming the familiar Finyal into a decorative and functional keepsake commemorating the occasion.
