Private Candle Making Classes

Book a private class and have the whole store to yourself! A private class is an intimate experience and is tailored to your group's needs. Each person in your group will design their own signature scent, learn the fundamentals of candle-making, and craft two custom candles to take home. You are welcome to bring light refreshments for your group to make your class special for your particular occasion.

Classes can be scheduled to begin at 9:30am, 6pm, or 6:30pm. The class duration is approximately 90-100 minutes. All participants enjoy 20% off of their in-store purchases during class.

What to Expect

Expert Guidance: Our classes are led by Edgewater Candles founder, Mark, who will walk you through the entire process, teach you about candle care, and answer any questions you have about fragrance, small business, and more.
Custom Scent Creation: Blend and remix fragrances from our full collection—including our signature, Zodiac, and Vault scents—to craft a one-of-a-kind scent.
Hands-On Crafting: Each participant makes two 6 oz travel tin candles in their custom scent. Ask about specialty vessels if you want to upgrade your experience.
All Materials Provided: We supply everything you need—just bring yourself! You are welcome to BYOB (no hard liquor, smoking, or vaping).
Take Home Your Candles: Your candles will be ready to take home at the end of class.

What are your candles made from?

Edgewater Candles are made from midwestern soy wax, cotton wicks, and a blend of essential oils and phthalate-free scented oils. Using only these simple materials, with no additives or dyes, our candles are vegan, clean burning, long lasting, and cruelty-free.

Can I bring empty Mason Jars back for you to reuse or recycle?

Yes! When you return our containers to us for reuse or recycling, you'll get 10% off your purchase on the day you bring them back. Our store is located at 1050 W Bryn Mawr Ave. in Chicago, and we're open 11am - 6pm every day.

How long do your candles last?

Our 12oz Mason Jar candles burn for approximately 75 hours, and our 6oz Travel Tins burn for approximately 35 hours. To get the longest burn time from your candle, allow the wax to melt across to all edges of the container before extinguishing. This will help avoid “tunneling”, which can prevent some of the wax from being used. Keeping the wick trimmed will also ensure a longer burn time.

Are your products made in the US?

Yes. We make our candles and all of our products by hand in Illinois.

We're open 11am - 6pm every day. Our store is located at 1050 W Bryn Mawr Ave. Chicago, IL 60660
