About this Event

Join Island Candles' hands-on Candle Making Party to create your own custom soy candles with beeswax toppers inspired by the Lowcountry.

During this guided workshop (and Island party!), you’ll learn the basics of candle making, from blending fragrances to pouring and decorating your own clean burning, hypoallergenic candles. Each guest will take home your custom created hand-poured candle & vision board same day.

We’ll provide all materials, light refreshments, and a fun, creative atmosphere to welcome the new year (ages 5+).


Island Candles is located at 1230 Folly Rd on James Island. You can park in the back parking lot and our entrance is the back door or side door (we share the location with another business, Arcanna).
