I enjoyed this class so much. Melanie was exceptional in her explanation of how to make scented candles. She also was so aware of making candles that were pure and using the best types of wax and fragrance oils. She shared her resources and also a step by step explanation so you can make your own. Melanie was very personable and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend her class to anyone who wants to learn how to make these very special candles. I also bought the kit to get started from her company Artisane and I also recommend purchasing that from her too.

Melanie was amazing! She thoroughly explained and demonstrated the entire process. Additionally, she provided a wealth of information about scents, wax, wicks, and equipment. I appreciated the time she spent answering all our questions. Although I'm a novice, I feel prepared for making candles after her expert guidance!

Mélanie is a great instructor. She went into depth on ingredients, method, and even the business aspect, which I was very much interested in. The instructions to make your own candles are pretty straight forward. I can't wait to get my supplies and get started.

This class was fantastic. Melanie was a ball of fire and very knowledgeable. She is very willing to share most of her tips and tricks to help your hobby become more consistent or maybe even a business. She will answer any questions that you may have limiting to proprietary secrets, naturally. Haha. I would continue to take classes with her if she offered more advanced classes in the future.
All and all, great class and you won't be disappointed.
-
I enjoyed this class. We had a small group and Melanie was very thorough with her information. I enjoyed that stressed the important of natural ingredients. She answered all your questions and was willing to share where she has taken fragrance classes at. I’m happy with my candle and cannot wait to burn it.
-
Melanie is full of passion and enthusiasm about her candle making. Good class for a beginner. I've learned a lot about the craft.

I really enjoyed the class and learned a lot about both buying and making candles. Melanie, the teacher, is clearly super knowledgeable and informed about the industry, and she was very patient in answering the class's many, many, many questions. I enjoyed the way the class was structured and the fact that it was a pretty small group. You will come away from this class knowing how to make your own soy and coconut wax-based candles and what to look for when buying candles.
-
Small space with a small group which made the class more personal. Melanie greeted me warmly and made me feel right at home. She had donuts and coffee waiting for us as well which was nice of her. The class started on time but we were waiting for another girl to join. Melanie was so understanding of this and made no big deal to go back over the material the person had missed. I am currently making candles myself so I wanted to learn from a pro to make sure I was on the right track. I have almost every piece of material that she makes candles with at home and a good amount of info I was aware of so I felt confident in my current work. I found her very knowledgeable in a lot of areas. Her pouring technique is amazing and I am going to give it a try at home. If this works as well as it did with the ones we made, I’m on the right path to success. She gave me some great ideas for scents and she provided a ton of sites to get more supplies. I’d take her class again

Melanie's class was very informative and fun. Her passion for fragrance is very evident and the experience was very enjoyable.
Its also important to note that Melanie provides printed notes of all the information she covers in the class!
-
Melanie was wonderful! She shared all the information you need to make candles, and all the resources you need to find materials on your own! She was particularly open to helping participants understand what it would take to start their own candle-making business. She was very kind and helpful!
-
From start to finish, this was an absolutely amazing experience. Melanie is super friendly and it is evident that she has a passion, not only for making candles, but for teaching others the craft. Her enthusiasm is contagious, and she has an amazing ability of sharing her knowledge in a way that it easy for anyone to understand. She provided us with an information packet, which she went through with us during each step of the process. We made two candles, one being a lotion candle (which I’d never even heard of, but let me tell you it is SO cool!). Melanie was thorough in discussing all of the tools you need to get started, and provided information as to where you can purchase everything. She also went into depth as to why natural candles are the best option and explained the dangers of items such as paraffin and phalates. This course was great for those just looking for a hobby, but also for people who would like to go into business. There’s so many aspects of starting a business and Melanie really provided vital information about how to start one. She’s truly a beautiful soul who made each of us feel inspired, motivated, and confident. If she ever hosts another class, I’ll be the first one to sign up.

I really enjoyed this class. Melanie was very friendly and knowledge. This is a great class to take either if you are preparing to start your own candle making business or if you are just doing this for fun. Melanie very generously shared all of her knowledge and experience and answered any questions coming up in the class. : )
-
I had a great time at this class!
-
The class was very good; however, it should be noted that this is geared towards someone who intends to make candles again in the future using the skills they learned in this class. If that is your focus, I can't think of a better option. Seriously, this is an exceptional class for that. If you're just looking for a quick class to make some candles, it is still a good one. Although you won't get as much out of it
-
Perfect!! Learn so much and she is super sweet and knowledgeable.

Fun, approachable instructor made the class awesome. Highly recommend!

Awesome class!, Melanie was very approachable and fun. I have been making my own candles for quite some time now (self taught) and decided to take this class in order to gain some new tips and insight, Melanie was able to answer my questions and really inspired me moving forward. The class is well organized and the resources and information Melanie shares are invaluable , I highly recommend anyone interested in candle making to take her class.

Melanie is amazing. She shared a lot about how she got into this business and just make you feel you can relate to. You barely see instructors that are willing to share everything with students these days. We learned more than how to make candle.
-
Great class, the instructor, Melanie, was super insightful and made the entire experience pleasant from welcoming us with coffee to answering all our burning (har-har, pardon the cheap pun) questions regarding the ins and outs of candle making. Would recommend and would take another class offered by Melanie!
-
Melanie was so wonderful! I learned so much and can’t wait to light my beautiful new candles! Would highly recommend this class to candle lovers everywhere.

This class was super informative and fun! I am very happy that I took the class and am certain that the information shared will carry me through my own creative candle making process.
-
-
Melanie is a great instructor, and made the class so much fun! Great ambiance, thorough explanation of the supplies and process, and the wine/cheese was a great plus. :)
My only caveat, specifically for those looking to learn about incorporating essential oils into candles -- know that the demonstration part of the class is centered around pthalate-free fragrance oils, not essential oils. Melanie dives into the challenges of working with essential oils in candle-making, and the fragrance used in class is the one ingredient that actually isn't 100% natural. This might not matter to most people, but might to those that are on the purist end of the spectrum.
-
It was a fun class, but not as hands on as I expected and would've preferred. Also, a bit expensive for what you get. Melanie was lovely, and she did provide all the basics for someone to start making their own candles right away.
-
It was a great class, organized Melanie really enjoys what she does and is happy to share. Cheese and wine were of course delicious and a nice added bonus. I already bought my melter, mixer, waxes and sample scents the very next morning. Such an easy and fun way to spend a Friday night!
-
Melanie's class was a lot of fun. She was very informative and walked the class step-by-step along with providing us with a lot of useful resources that would usually take someone weeks to compile. I had fun learning to make candles along with the other amazing women in the class! Highly recommend.

I thought Melanie was a great instructor. She was very informative and gave great information. I had a great time with her and met some really awesome woman in the process!
