A Very Merry Candle Making with Olga Kardonova

Join us for a festive candle-making experience!

In this class, you’ll create your own holiday-inspired candle and decorate it with hand-poured wax figurines such as snowmen, Christmas trees, snowflakes, polar bears and so much more.

With seasonal colors and cozy scents, you’ll design a one-of-a-kind candle that’s perfect for gifting or enjoying at home.

Olga Kardonova is an artist and maker who creates unique concrete candles and home décor. She transforms simple materials like cement and wax into beautiful, functional art-often painting her vessels by hand to add a personal, artistic touch.

Her work blends creativity with craftsmanship, bringing warmth and personality into everyday spaces. She finds joy in both sculpting and painting, using each piece as a way to express herself and share beauty with others. For her, art is about storytelling, self-expression, and making the world a little more inspiring-one handmade piece at a time.
