Workplace Candle-Making Team Building Workshops
A Unique Team Building Activity for Offices & Organizations
Looking for a creative team building activity that encourages connection, stress relief, and collaboration? Candle Studio 1422 offers onsite workplace candle workshops for offices, nonprofits, and organizations across Southeastern Pennsylvania, Delaware, and the Baltimore–Washington region.
Our guided, hands-on workshops bring teams together through the art of candle making. Each participant creates their own eco-friendly soy candle in a modern jar vessel—an experience that’s relaxing, inclusive, and results in a meaningful takeaway.
Why Candle Workshops Are Ideal for Team Building

🎁 A Tangible Takeaway: Each participant leaves with an 8 oz soy candle that burns for 45+ hours
Workshop Overview

What to Expect
After pouring, candles require about 90–120 minutes to set. During this time, employees can:

When candles are ready, we cut wicks, apply labels, and bag them so participants leave with a finished product.
