Roll up your sleeves—it’s candle-making time!
With an expert leading the way, you’ll learn how to transform a wine bottle into a beautiful, functional candle. Whether you bring your own bottle or choose one from the studio’s collection, you’ll safely cut the glass before melting and pouring hot wax into the bottle's base.
The best part? You can customize your candle with a variety of cocktail-inspired fragrances—think barrel-aged bourbon, whiskey and sweet tobacco, or a zesty old fashioned cocktail.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll walk away with a stunning, upcycled candle—ready to light and enjoy at home!
