About The Classes

These will not be dry, boring lectures - all classes will be "Hands On". Class size is strictly limited to give you personal attention. You will take home the candles you make, those candles that are not ready by the end of class may be picked up during normal business hours.

The weekend of classes is designed to provide experience with a broad range of candle making techniques to enable you to jumpstart your candle making career.
