Craft your unique blend with our hands-on, interactive candle bar experience.
To kickstart your candle-making journey, the first step is to choose a suitable vessel. We offer a range of options, each varying in price and aesthetic appeal. Our standard choice is a 9oz white or black jar, but we also provide the option to upgrade to more elaborate containers. The vessel you select will set the foundation for your candle and contribute to its overall presentation.
The wick plays a crucial role in the burning process of your candle. You have the choice between cotton wicks or wood wicks, each offering unique benefits. Cotton wicks provide a classic and consistent burn, while wood wicks create a cozy ambiance with their gentle crackling sound. Consider your desired candle experience when making this selection.
To add a personal touch to your candles, choose from our selection of labels. Custom labels allow you to create a unique identity for your candle, whether it's for personal use or gifting purposes. With various designs and materials available, you can find the perfect label to complement your candle's aesthetic.
Fragrance oils are an excellent way to infuse your candles with captivating scents. At our workshop, you'll have the option to select from a wide range of pre-made fragrance oils or even create your own unique scent. Fragrances can evoke memories and set the mood, so take your time and choose the scent that resonates with you.
Before pouring the wax, it's essential to prepare the candle jars properly. This step involves cleaning and priming the jars to ensure optimal adhesion and a smooth finish. Our candle-making expert will guide you through this process, ensuring that your candles turn out flawlessly.
Now comes the exciting part: mixing and pouring the wax into your chosen vessel. Our expert will guide you through the proper wax melting technique, ensuring that your candles achieve the perfect consistency. You'll learn about different types of wax and additives, as well as techniques to achieve various effects such as layered or marbled candles. After that, your candle will need to cool down for about an hour.
For those who enjoy the metaphysical properties of crystals, we offer the option to incorporate them into your candle. Choose from a selection of carefully curated crystals, each with its unique energy and symbolism. Infusing your candle with crystals adds an extra layer of intention and meaning to your creation.
If you're looking to add a touch of natural beauty to your candles, consider incorporating flowers. We provide an array of dried flowers that can be delicately placed within the wax or on the surface of your candle. Flowers not only enhance the visual appeal but can also offer a soothing and uplifting experience.
To make your candles even more special, you have the option to personalize them with charms. Charms add a whimsical and decorative element to your candles, making them truly one-of-a-kind. Choose charms that resonate with your personal style or carry symbolic meaning to make your candles extra special.
Setting Intentions As you decorate your candles, take a moment to set your intentions. Setting intentions is a powerful practice that allows you to infuse your candles with your desires, goals, or affirmations. Our expert will provide guidance on how to focus your intentions and manifest them through your candle creations.
The candle-making workshop experience typically lasts around 2 hours. During this time, you'll not only learn the art and history of candle making but also have the opportunity to explore and immerse yourself in our store. While waiting for the wax to cure, which usually takes between 45 minutes to 1 hour, you can take a break and grab a bite to eat or browse the nearby consignment store for unique finds. Alternatively, you can relax at our store and enjoy the available books and divination tools for some self-reflection and exploration.
