Candle Making Class: Pour Your Own Custom Candle With Instructor Sara
Make your own custom candle at this creative BYOB candle making class.
Get hands-on in a guided candle making workshop where you’ll create a custom-scented candle using premium seasonal fragrances and a stylish vessel. Choose and blend your favorite scents, then follow step-by-step guidance to pour a candle that reflects your personal style. The guided workshop lasts about one hour but candles need additional time to cool and set before they can be taken home. Plan to spend at least two hours at the experience or return later to pick up your finished creation.
You are welcome to bring beer, wine or champagne to enjoy during the workshop. Hard liquor is not permitted. Alcohol is limited to one bottle of wine or champagne or one six-pack of beer per two guests. Guests must be 21 or older to drink and present a valid ID.

Brought my girlfriend and honestly it was a really cool experience. Huge variety of scents and plenty of vessel colors and sizes to choose from. The whole process was fun, relaxed, and different from the usual date night ideas. We’ll definitely be back!
