The Winter Bloom Bar +Candle Making @Above Average Candle Studio

Step into a cozy, creative escape this winter and bring a little light — and bloom — to the season. Our Winter Bloom Bar + Candle Making Workshop is the perfect mix of warmth, fragrance, and floral design, where you’ll craft both a signature candle and a beautiful winter-themed bouquet to take home.
Your experience begins with our Seasonal Fragrance Menu, where you’ll blend your own custom winter scent — think Vanilla Chai & Cedarwood, Frosted Eucalyptus, Cranberry Spice, or Cashmere & Snowdrops. Once you’ve found your perfect seasonal blend, you’ll pour it into a sleek frosted glass vessel to create your one-of-a-kind hand-poured candle.
Then, step into our Winter Bloom Bar, where you’ll design a stunning bouquet using fresh and dried seasonal florals — like pine sprigs, winter berries, eucalyptus, and delicate white blooms. Our hosts will guide you through the process of arranging and wrapping your bouquet, with ribbons and accents that make it gift-ready or perfect for your own holiday table.
As your candle sets, relax and enjoy complimentary refreshments and light bites, mingle with fellow creators, and soak in the festive atmosphere. The studio will be filled with soft lighting, winter scents, and a curated playlist to set the mood.
Whether you come solo, with friends, or as a unique date, this workshop is all about slowing down, creating beauty, and savoring the season — one pour and petal at a time.
