The Candle Making Experience

We want your candle pouring experience to be fun, creative, and safe. Please read below on what to expect.

Reservations

  • You can reserve online, in-studio, message us via Instagram or email us. All bookings require at least a $5 per person deposit. The deposit will be deducted from your total at the time of your pouring. Or, you can opt to pay the full base price of $30 per person/candle when placing your online order.

  • Walk-ins are welcomed, but there is no guarantee of availability. Online orders are limited to 8 guests. 

  • Please contact us if you would like a time outside of the sessions available online.

  • Please arrive in time for your scheduled booking. If you are more than 10 minutes late, we may need to reschedule depending on if there is a reservation following your's or near closing time.

Your Scent Exploration Experience

  • Explore available scents.

  • For children under the age of 10, adult supervision is required. Also, an adult is expected to assist the child, when needed, through the process.

Candle Making

  • Outside jars/vessels are not allowed.

  • Once you have created your custom scent, studio staff will provide you with your heated wax, and provide very specific instructions. 

  • You will have the option to select a pre-printed label or you can create your own label by naming your candle and drawing a design on your label.

What to expect after you pour your candle.

  • The 7.3 oz candle takes approximately 2 hours to solidify. Larger vessels will take up to 3 hours. 

  • Once your candle has cooled, Studio staff will affix a warning label and your personally designed label or a standard label.

  • You can pick-up your candle the same day, if time allows. However, it is important to allow for at least 2 hours of cooling time for our smallest vessel. If you choose a larger vessel, please allow at least 3 hours. Be aware of closing time. Candles poured after 2 PM Wednesday - Saturday, may need to be picked up on another day or shipped. Candles poured after 1:30 PM on Sundays will need to picked up on another day or shipped due to closing time. (Please note if your pouring is scheduled for 1:30, you likely will not pour until 2:15 or so, thus having to pick up another day or have your candle shipped.)

  • You can pick your candle up on any day the Studio is open. We will hold your candle for as long as you need. 

  • You may also have your candle shipped for a small fee of $8 for 1 candle, and $2 for each additional candle to the same address. 

  • Soy candles need time to cure. Please allow your candle to cure for at least 2-weeks before burning. If you burn your candle sooner, the scent may not be as strong.

  • Be sure to read the instructions on the warning label for care and safety.

BYOB & Food

  • Guests 21 and over are welcomed to bring their own bottle of wine or spirits.
  • No food is allowed in the Studio.
  • We can sometimes accommodate groups outside of normal business hours; please reach out regarding availability.
