About this course

A handmade candle holds something a store-bought candle cannot: the care of the person who made it. This course covers container candles, pillar candles, and botanical embeds — using natural waxes (soy, beeswax, coconut) and fragrance blending to create candles that are beautiful, functional, and made with intention. The craft is quiet, sensory, and deeply satisfying.

Wax Knowledge: Soy, Beeswax & Coconut

20 min

Each wax has a distinct character. Soy is forgiving and clean-burning. Beeswax is natural and honey-scented. Coconut wax holds fragrance beautifully. Learn to choose the right wax for each project.

Smell a piece of natural beeswax. That scent — warm, floral, ancient — has been the same for ten thousand years of beekeeping. You are part of a long line of wax workers.

The Wick: The Heart of the Candle

20 min

An undersized wick tunnels and drowns. An oversized wick smokes and burns hot. Correct wick sizing is the single most important variable in candle performance.

The wick burns and disappears so the wax can give light. What in your practice consumes itself in service of something larger?
