✨ Absolutely Phenomenal Experience! ✨ I had the pleasure of attending a candle-making class hosted by Posh Blueprints, and I cannot recommend it enough! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and beautifully curated. Cafi, the owner and instructor, was nothing short of phenomenal. Her energy is magnetic—she’s knowledgeable, patient, encouraging, and truly passionate about what she does. She guided us step-by-step with such clarity and enthusiasm that even those of us who had never made a candle before felt like pros by the end of the session! The materials were top-tier, the ambiance was relaxing and fun, and every detail was thoughtfully executed—from the fragrance selection to the personalized touches throughout the class. I walked away not only with a beautifully crafted candle, but with a memorable experience I’ll cherish. If you’re looking for something creative, therapeutic, and inspiring—book this class. Cafi and Posh Blueprints are in a league of their own! 🌟
