🥰 Made my own candle at Candle Castle & Co

Got to make my own candle at Candle Castle & Co. in Wicker (Charles, Joel) Park. I went with one of my girl friends, but it would also be great for a double date or girls night!

First step was choosing our vessel color from the walls. After, we got to choose our scent combo. I went with the Eucalyptus & Spearmint and my friend went with the Mango Papaya. The instructor walked us through pouring the wax and adding the right combos. My personal favorite part was the decorating and of course I decked mine out with glitterrrrr ✨

We had to wait an hour for it to be ready, so we stopped by Small Cheval- Wicker Park for a drink. I brought it home and styled it on my side table for a nice pop of color!
