Aromatherapy Workshops with Nancy Hall
$85.00
Join us for one or both workshops with Aromatherapy Expert Nancy Hall as we host two workshops in August and September.
The Art & Science of Blending Essential Oils
Sunday, September 28th – 1pm – 3pm
In this hands-on workshop, Nancy will walk you through the creative process behind her own signature synergy blends—why they work, how they’re built, and what makes them sing.
You’ll start by choosing one of her blends to scent a gorgeous melt-and-pour soap (which we’ll make together to take home). Then, it’s your turn. Nancy will guide you step-by-step in crafting your own personal blend—balancing top, middle, and base notes, exploring scent families, and understanding how aroma behaves in soap. You’ll leave with your very own formula, on paper and in a bottle, plus the know-how to scale it up for future batches.
We’ll cover the foundations of botanical perfumery, blending math (don’t worry, it’s not scary), and dip into the exciting world of blending plant aromatics.
You’ll Leave With:
A bar of melt-and-pour soap scented with one of Nancy’s signature blends
Your own custom blend
A written recipe you can use again (and scale for soap batches)
Confidence in blending, whether for soap, body care, or pure aromatic pleasure
The Practical Aromatic Kitchen
RESCHEDULED – DATE TBA Saturday, Aug 16 – 1pm – 2:30pm
Join Nancy for a hands-on, down-to-earth dive into the many ways you can preserve and work with the plants you grow (or wildcraft).
We’ll explore simple, approachable methods like drying, tincturing, and making glycerites—plus the wonderful world of aromatics. Think hydrosols, essential oils, infused potions, and even how to safely add essential oils into food.
I’ll be bringing along some of my favorite homemade concoctions for show, tell, sniff, and maybe even taste. Whether you’re a kitchen witch, a garden geek, or just someone who loves making beautiful things from nature—you’ll walk away with practical skills and inspiration to last all year.
You’ll leave with:
- A clear understanding of how to preserve herbs (and when to use which method)
- A beginner-friendly intro to aromatics—essential oils, hydrosols, and how to use them wisely
- Creative ideas for culinary use of essential oils
- Live demos, hands-on experiences, and lots of scent exploration
- A deeper relationship with your plants and your pantry
