LUNCHTIME CANDLE MAKING WORKSHOP

May 4, 2023 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm

$30.00 – $45.00

Thursday, Noon, May 4, 2023

Candle-making is one of the pioneer arts that goes back in time.  Not exactly Bushcraft, but a Pioneer Self-Reliance skill.  It’s how people lit their homes in the days before electricity.

You will learn the 3 methods of making your own candles: rolling, dipping, and molds.

You will take at least one candle home that you made.

This is a great skill to teach children, and there is also the possibility of creating a product you can sell at craft faire, or barter with your neighbors.

As a bonus, you will also learn how to  make a very simple slush lamp, used for millenia to light the night.
