About this Event

Step into spring with Island Candles’ hands-on Candle Making Party, where you’ll create your own custom soy candles topped with charming beeswax designs inspired by the Lowcountry. 🌸

During this guided workshop and relaxed, creative setting, you’ll learn the basics of candle making, from blending fresh seasonal fragrances to pouring and decorating your own clean-burning, hypoallergenic candles.

Each guest will head home the same day with a beautifully crafted, hand-poured candle that captures the light and warmth of the season. 🌼

We’ll provide all materials, light refreshments (or you can🍻BYOB🍻), and a fun, creative atmosphere (ages 5+).

Island Candles is located at 1230 Folly Rd on James Island. You can park in the back parking lot, and our entrance is the back door or side door (we share the location with another business, Arcanna).
