What you'll do
Are you searching for soothing things to do in New York? Spark your creativity in this relaxing craft class and learn how to make candles from scratch with your coconut wax wizard, Melanie.
In this engaging experience, which is perfect for beginners, you will learn how to make candles that are fragrant, natural, and something you can feel good about burning in your home. Your workshop will begin by discussing how natural candles are better for the environment as well as your health.
If you're also interested in making candles at home, then you're in luck. Melanie will also guide you on how to source quality ingredients and tools for DIY candles and advice for selling your homemade candles if you do want to make more.
Then you will be diving into the best part! Making your candles using a unique recipe with plenty of support from your teacher and your fellow candle crafters. First, you will make a standard scented candle using coconut or soy wax and pure oil fragrance. Then you will make a lotion candle that, once burned, can be a gorgeous moisturizer for your skin. It's the perfect accompaniment to your spa days at home!
You will walk away from this class feeling empowered with your new knowledge about candle making and all the positive benefits you can experience from burning your new handmade candles.

Your teacher
Growing up in the South of France, Artisane NYC owner, Melanie, fell in love with nature and the beauty of experiencing it with all your senses. Smell was the most prominent as she often enjoyed the aromas of fields of lavender, roses, pine, and olive trees as they perfumed her life.
After traveling around, Melanie eventually found herself in New York and fell in love with this wonderful city. It inspires her, encourages her, and allows her to live her dreams. But even though she loves NY, she often finds herself missing home. To relive those wonderful memories of France she fills her home with gorgeous scented candles made from scratch. Now she wants to share this wonderful craft with you!
All candles made by Artisane use high-quality, natural ingredients like soy or coconut wax and phthalate-free fragrances. If you often find scented items to be headache-inducing, then these natural candles can be your solution!
Step into Melanie's world and enjoy a taste of the south of France by making candles in one of her wonderful workshops.

Melanie was a fabulous teacher, our team really enjoyed learning all about candles. It was a fun evening!
Bona Jeong • Jan 2022
Melanie was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions in details and thoughtful manner. I always wanted to learn about candle making for hobby, and this amazing birthday gift from my sister gave me this chance! This specific venue got a little noisy in the end as the customers started to come in for lunch. Other than that, I would definitely recommend this class to anyone who has interest just from hobby to starting a business. Thanks Melanie!
