Create your own incredibly scented container candles and votives using soy wax – a great alternative to paraffin for a cleaner longer burning candle that doesn’t release carcinogens. We'll melt soy wax, prepare our containers and individually scent each candle.
Your finished candles will be gift ready when you decorate the jars and pair them with a decoupaged matchbox. You’ll also find out where to get all the supplies to keep making more candles at home. You’ll leave with 3-5 candles depending on container size.
Kit Fee: $17, due to Nicole day of workshop

About Nicole
While attending graduate school for creative writing in San Francisco, Nicole started painting. After her first art show sold out, she headed down to Los Angeles to make a go of it as an artist. Her new artistic path led her from selling paintings on the boardwalk at Venice Beach to having her art showcased in over 20 art shows in California as well as co-founding G.A.S.- a organization that raised funds for charities through art events and hosted group art shows in Southern California.
She made the switch to wearable art, creating Random Nicole, her line of art-inspired clothing for men, women & children, which was carried at over 250 locations worldwide and has been featured in over 40 publications including Squeeze OC, Riviera Magazine, PaperCrafts Magazine, CraftStylish, NBC & Daily Candy.
Nicole owned the indie boutique and diy workshop space The Craft Kitchen which she closed to move back to the bay area in 2010. In 2006 she co-founded Patchwork Indie Art & Craft Festival with her aunt Delilah Snell. Nicole also co-produces Craftcation: Indie Business & DIY Craft Conference.
Nicole divides her time between producing Patchwork & Craftcation, designing and making creations for Random Nicole, teaching DIY workshops, small business consulting, creating custom designs & illustrations and working on her MFA. She holds a BA and MA in creative writing and is currently working on a non-fiction book about her crafty adventures. Nicole’s strong convictions to accessible affordable art are prominent in all her ventures.
