Event short description

Become a chandler in training in our candle-making workshop! We assemble DIY candle-making kits in our very own workshop in Houston, TX, mail those kits directly to participants, and provide our private Zoom meeting link so everyone can follow along and have an awesome virtual bonding experience together! Our candle-making kit and workshop includes materials for two candles per participant and one hour of virtual instruction. We walk through the components and process of candle-making, and actively lead participants through melting, blending, and pouring their candles. Our instructors encourage conversation among participants and ask engaging questions to help deepen the group experience.

How it works
