I absolutely loved Marike’s Pour with Purpose class! Her instructions were easy to follow, and she created such a welcoming, generous space — we even got to make two candles! What really stood out to me was the intentionality she wove into the experience. It went beyond just candle making; it felt like a creative and meaningful way to pause, reflect, and connect back to self. She had a variety of scents to choose from. Something for everyone! I left not only with beautiful candles, but also with a full heart.

I took a candle making class with Marike and it was so much fun! Her candles are gorgeous and smell amazing and it was a great event to be able to create our own!
