Highlights
Outing Highlights
Hands‑on candle and wax‑melt making
In a guided studio session students select scents, pour their own candle or wax melts with instructor support, and apply finishing touches before taking their creation home.
Candle science and fragrance blending
The class introduces basic science concepts through creative, sensory learning—measuring materials, exploring scent combinations, and understanding safe pouring.
Small classes, personalized instruction
Sessions are kept small so instructors can offer hands‑on guidance and individualized support as students work through scent selection and the pouring process.
What the day feels like
What the hour feels like
The hour moves from short, instructor‑led explanations of candle science and scent blending into active studio time: each student measures materials, chooses fragrances, pours under supervision, and completes their piece with finishing touches and care instructions to bring home.

Details to review before reserving
The guided creative lab runs for 60 minutes, moving from instruction to hands‑on making so each student finishes a candle or wax melts within the session.
No special equipment is required for participants; the session is studio‑led and students work with instructor support to create and take home their finished item and care instructions.
Participants must be able to safely engage in the candle making process (working with warm wax); the operator reserves the right to refuse participation if safety guidelines cannot be followed.
Classes are intentionally small to allow personalized, hands‑on instruction as students select scents, pour, and finish their projects.
Review cancellation policies before reserving.
