Full Description

Craft your own beautiful botanical soy candle from start to finish in a relaxed, hands-on workshop that's perfect for all skill levels — no experience necessary.

Using eco-friendly soy wax, premium fragrance oils, and a wide variety of dried botanicals including herbs, petals, and blooms, you'll learn the fundamentals of natural candle making from the ground up. Our instructors guide you through every step — from melting and scenting the wax to decorating and pouring your finished 8oz candle with an approximate 40-hour burn time.

Choose from a selection of elegant fragrance blends and personalize your candle with your pick of dried flowers and herbs to make it entirely your own. You'll also take home an instructional guide so you can recreate the experience anytime.

With sessions running 30 minutes to 1 hour and capacity for up to 50 guests, this workshop works just as well for a solo creative afternoon as it does for team building, date nights, birthday parties, and bachelorette celebrations. Bring your creativity — we'll handle the rest.
