Upcoming Classes (405)
All courses are held at 2516 Times Blvd, Houston, TX unless indicated.
Love and Make workshops are the newest Houston-based team-building activity, done in a chic and laid-back atmosphere.
How we came to be
Amara, co-founder, first had the idea in 2017, while unable to return home to Houston during Hurricane Harvey for a couple weeks. Out-of-state with friends, she kept busy by performing a trial run, candle-making class and had a blast. She then teamed up with sister-in-law and co-founder, Bukola, to hold their first Houston-area pilot workshop during the holidays. By January of 2018, they were officially incorporated. Love and Make has hosted several workshops and special events in the Houston area, and are always looking for new opportunities.
Our goal
Love and Make offers the chance to step outside-of-the-box and make something unique and memorable with your friends & colleagues. Each student will have a fun, creative experience and leave with a wonderful “smell” on their face. Currently the classes run about 1 ½ to 2 hours, but could vary with class size.

This class was super fun, I didn’t want it to end. Instructors made sure we knew what we were doing with their explanation and help. We learned how to color our soap and put in jibbits or flowers to our liking. I recommend this class to young and old, they will welcome you in with open arms. Have fun

I liked the presentation of how perfumery works and I enjoyed picking the different fragrances then learning how all those flavors came together to create a wonderful smell. I liked bringing home a bottle of perfume that I helped create. I would recommend this course for anyone, it’s fun. ?

DIY Fragrance Design (Make a Candle or Diffuser)

I feel like the concept is very good but 45min felt very rushed, especially when there are over 70 scents to choose from. Would have been great if they would suggest combinations or scents that go well together. It was Valentine’s day and it felt like they just rotated people to get the most profit. Did not feel special.

The instructor was very thorough. It was a fun and easy-to-understand session. I am happy there were only two of us; it created a low stress easy to follow instructions

We enjoyed this class with Rebecca. It was easy to follow and fun to make our own soap designs with the botanicals, colors, and fragrance we had chosen. We bought the kit ahead of time and that came with everything needed for the class. We would buy refills and do it again. The soaps can make nice gifts for others, and it’s nice to have a practical item you can use at the end of the class.

The class was really nothing more than a craft class: i.e. here's the stuff, here's the tools...go. I was really looking for what the description said, "instructors will walk you through the entire fragrance blending process." I wanted to know how blending works & what scents work well together. Instead I was told to blend them, find something I like, try them in the mixer, adjust, and whala you're all set...I guess I was paying for the oils because I could've gotten the instruction off YouTube.
