Creative Candle Making with Helen Halverson

  • Luminous Gallery | Studio 100 Front St S Friday Harbor, WA 98250 (map)

The Creative Candle Jar Winter Scene class is a way for us to come together to handcraft a delightful scented and embellished candle.


You will learn to wick, pour, scent, and decorate an organic soy wax candle.
Once you are ready to pour, you may scent your candle from a few options such as:
◇ Fragrances:
* spice
* apple
* pine
* bergamot ( think earl Grey tea)
* various citrus scents

There will be several items to choose from to decorate your candle with. These goodies include:
* jute twine
* epsom salt
* cinnamon sticks
* pine cones
* rose hips
* cedar, rosemary and/or fir sprigs

I will show you how to decorate your jar to look like snow, wrap the jute twine around the jar mouth and tie in your decorative items!

◇ This candle making process takes about 90 minutes. It will not be entirely set by the end of class, so I will provide a bag to carry it gently home in. Allow candle to set for one - two weeks, trim wick to 1/4 inch, and burn responsibly and always within your sight. Never leave candles unattended.

Adult class 18+
This is a group class for 6-10 people. If you're interested in a private candle making party, please contact me at Helen@lightworksstudios.com

Candle making involves the use of hot wax, essential oils, and/or fragrance oils. While everything we work with is non-toxic it does have an intended use and should be used with caution and care. Please wear clothes that you don't mind getting soiled/waxy. Please no open toed shoes or long flowing sleeves, skirts, or other garments. Safety first!

◇ Sunday, January 18th
4-6 PM
Light snacks, tea and filtered water provided.
$48 for everything you need to create your special candle and make memories!
