INTRO TO CANDLE POURING WORKSHOP
Class Date: Saturday, October 12th
Class Time: 12pm–3pm
Welcome to the fun and festive world of candle making with this beginner-friendly course!
In this workshop, you will learn the basics of candle making from wax to wick, as well as an introduction to fragrance theory and blending. From there, you will be able to create three candles with an autumn-inspired motif.
First, you will create your first candle in a mini travel sized, featuring your very own blended scent.
From there, your full creativity reigns. We will explore safe and unique ways to customize your candles, including seasonally-shaped wax embeds and decorating a candle vessel with beautiful dried florals. You may continue to experiment with scent blending or use a selection of tried-and-true holiday favorites that everyone will enjoy.
By the end of this workshop, you will have an understanding of the craft of candle making, fragrance creation, and three candles to enjoy or gift.

Lyss is the artisan and owner of Choucre, a luxury candle brand with a y2k-twist based in Austin, TX. She is inspired by her favorite memories from childhood and works to recreate those memories in scent form in her candles. She believes that everyone could use a little more whimsy in their lives, so she is not afraid of loud colors or unexpected scents in her design. When not pouring candles, she is likely enjoying an iced coffee, playing boardgames, or chasing her dog through the backyard.
