What you'll do

Looking for a calming and creative experience? Join us for an afternoon of candle making in San Jose, where you'll craft your own beautiful botanical soy candle from start to finish -- no experience necessary!

In this hands-on creative class, you'll learn the fundamentals of natural candle making using eco-friendly soy wax, premium fragrance oils, and dried botanical elements like herbs, petals, and blooms. From melting and scenting the wax to decorating and pouring your own 8-oz candle, you'll leave with a handcrafted creation that has an approximate 40-hour burn time.

Most classes follow this format:

5–10 min: Welcome and introduction
10 min: Instructions on scent selection, understanding fragrance notes, and candle-making basics
Guidance on decorating and customizing your candle
~1 hour: Creating and decorating your own candle

Public Workshops:

Hands-on candle making experience. Our hosts will be present in the space, walking around and supporting participants throughout the session. If your host is currently assisting another guest, they will come to you as soon as they finish. We kindly ask for your patience.

Private Workshops:

You may also book a private session, where a host will be dedicated to your group and guide you throughout the entire workshop!

Whether you're coming solo, with friends, or as a team activity, this San Jose candle-making workshop is a perfect way to unwind, explore your creativity, and take home something lovely. Bring your creativity -- we'll handle the rest. Limited spots available!

This ranges from $200–$500 depending on the activity, group size, and transportation needs.
