If you're new to candle making, it's a great way to personalize your home ambiance and unwind creatively. In my session at Café Mounday in Montreal, I started by fixing the wick and choosing my scents—a soothing blend of sandalwood, lemon, and tea tree for a fresh yet earthy aroma. Mixing the wax carefully ensures your candle burns evenly and safely. One tip I learned is to allow the wax to cool fully in the pot before moving it; this helps solidify the fragrance throughout the candle. Though we had some fun moments—losing twice at Uno!—the calming effect of the Kumbaya candle kept the mood light and zen. For anyone interested, I highly recommend experimenting with scent combinations and using quality wax for the best results. This DIY workshop isn't just about making candles; it's about crafting an experience—one you'll want to repeat.
