Private Candle Making Classes Book a private class and have the whole store to yourself! A private class is an intimate experience and is tailored to your group's needs. Each person in your group will design their own signature scent, learn the fundamentals of candle-making, and craft two custom candles to take home. You are welcome to bring light refreshments for your group to make your class special for your particular occasion. Classes can be scheduled to begin at 9:30am, 6pm, or 6:30pm. The class duration is approximately 90-100 minutes. All participants enjoy 20% off of their in-store purchases during class.
