Candle Making on the Main Line
in Ardmore, PA

Not at all. Our chandlers guide you through every step — from choosing your fragrance blend to the final pour. No experience necessary, just bring curiosity.

Sessions are $62 per person. That covers the full 90-minute guided experience, all materials (fragrance oils, wax, wicks, and jars), expert guidance throughout, and your finished candles to take home the same night. Drinks are available separately.

Sessions run 90 minutes. Your candles set and cool while you finish your drink, so they are ready to leave with you the same night. Let them cure for 7 days before the first burn.

Yes. Ardmore is BYOB — bring your own wine, beer, or champagne (no spirits, please) — and you are welcome to bring your own light bites. Wine and beer are also available for purchase on-site.

Sessions are open for groups of 2 or more. For larger parties of 15+ guests, we offer full private venue buyouts. Visit our private events page to inquire about group bookings.

Yes. Your candle sets and cools during the session and is ready to take home before you leave. No waiting, no shipping — it goes with you.
