Honestly a little disappointing—I think Neemah was overbooked but we spent a lot of time waiting and not much time doing the actual activity. The only thing we got to choose about the candle was the scent, unlike the class pictures which show different vessels, colors, decorations, etc. Instructor seemed stressed (😢) which set the tone of the class as sort of rushed and stressful as well. I would buy some wax and scent and do it at home for a more custom experience! Again, this could just be because she was overbooked (valentines day weekend), but experience could definitely be improved.

While the idea is fun, the execution of the class wasn't particularly good. For about the price of one ticket you could purchase all of the materials (including a wax warmer/melter), and the instructions were about 4 sentences in total making it feel like a liberal use of the word class. We started about 20 minutes after the scheduled time and the candles we made were extremely small (dollar store sized). Apart from the lack of value, and no meaningful instructor input, the activity was fine and all of the participants made it enjoyable.
