LUNCHTIME CANDLE MAKING WORKSHOP
May 4, 2023 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm
$30.00 – $45.00Thursday, 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.
