Why the Drymint Candle-Making Experience Is Different
At Drymint, we don't believe candle making should feel like following a recipe and going home with a candle that looks like everyone else's.
Our workshops are designed to give you room to experiment and make something that feels like yours.
Choose from our curated fragrance collection or explore different scent combinations to create something personal. We'll guide you through the process, help you understand how scents work together, and give you the freedom to make your own choices along the way.
You'll also get to see what goes into making a candle by hand, from choosing your fragrance to pouring the wax.
The result isn't just a candle you made at a workshop. It's a scent you chose, a creation you made, and an experience you'll remember.
About Drymint
Drymint started with a family project and grew into something much bigger.
A few years ago, my children wanted to take part in a school business fair. We made candles together using simple materials, handmade labels, and a lot of trial and error. They sold out in about an hour and then asked, “Can we do this again, but better?”
That question stayed with me.
What began as a fun project became Drymint, a small family-run brand built around simple rituals that help us slow down, reset, and come back to ourselves.
Today, I handcraft Drymint candles and body care products in our Massachusetts studio, working with thoughtfully chosen ingredients and local partners whenever possible. Our workshops bring that same spirit of making things by hand into a room full of people, good conversation, and a little creativity.
For us, candle making isn't about getting everything perfect. It's about taking an hour to make something with your own hands, enjoying the process, and leaving with something you created yourself.
We'd love to have you join us.
