Each session lasts about an hour, with your candles setting for roughly 30 minutes after pouring. We started by choosing our vessels, which are a selection of stylish 10-oz jars, and then explored over 30 fragrance oils to work with. We could mix up to three scents to create something uniquely ours, with guidance and tips from our professional candle maker, Kylie.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once our scent was ready, we set up our space and got to work. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We poured the wax, centered the wicks, and added decorative touches like colored mica and sparkles. After the candles cooled, we were able to add personal, decorative touches like stickers and an official label. Every step of the candle-making process made us feel creative, engaged, and excited to leave with something truly one-of-a-kind.
