Listen to the Teacher to Introduce the Guide

This will help you better understand the steps.

Choose a Container

You can close your eyes and run your hand over them to see which one is more destined for you.

Prepare the Bamboo Core and the Secret Message

What do you want to tell to the candle reciever? (Of course you can bring to yourself)

Insert Secret Paper

Don't let anyone see it because it's a secret.

Choose One Color and One Flavor

Yes, this step is like making a magic potion.

Seal Layer

To hide your secret ~

Choose Decorative Accessories to Decorate the Surface

Just to use your imagination!

Step into the warm, welcoming glow of our studio and create a one-of-a-kind candle that holds more than just fragrance. Choose from ten elegant artisan porcelain cups—each perfect for setting a heartfelt tone. Then, select from ten exquisite essential oils to infuse your candle with a scent. Want to make it extra personal? You're welcome to bring your own fragrance blend.

Guided by our experienced instructor, you'll learn the art of candle making—from melting natural soy wax to embedding a hidden message inside your candle. Whether it's a heartfelt "I love you, " an inspiring quote, or a personal note, your message will slowly reveal itself as the candle burns—creating a moment you cherish long after the day is over.

By the end of this relaxing and creative workshop, you’ll take home a beautiful handcrafted candle—perfect as a thoughtful gift or a shared bonding experience you can enjoy together.

The main difference between this workshop with the Candle Making Workshop: Secret Message Candle is the type of candle container. This workshop uses exquisite containers for public aesthetics, which are more for casual group experiences.

The Candle Making Workshop: Secret Message Candle Candle Making Workshop: Secret Message Candle includes a larger, handmade container that holds twice as much wax, giving you a longer-lasting candle and a more substantial piece to take home.

It is the soul of Chinese culture, representing the living roots of its civilization and the vibrant expressions of its identity. From the intricate artistry of pottery and calligraphy to the ancient practices of incense and wax making, each craft tells a story of historical significance, cultural values, and ancestral wisdom.

Pottery & Soft Pottery: Shape the clay into forms that echo the ancient craftsmanship of Chinese potters.
Incense Making: Blend natural scents that have perfumed Chinese temples and homes for centuries.
Wax Making: Craft candles inspired by the ones that have illuminated China’s past.
Calligraphy: Learn the art of brush strokes that have been a revered form of expression throughout China's history.
Tie-Dyeing: Dive into fabric art that reflects the vibrant ethnic diversity and creativity of China.
Lacquer Fans: Decorate fans that carry the elegance and aesthetic sensibilities of Chinese culture.

And more...

Why Choose Us?
