This event is sold out! BUT, we added a second date, so the candle fun can continue! Check that out here.

Have you ever wanted to know how to make your own candle? Join DSM Mercantile and Wander Women for a beautiful spring evening as we craft outdoor-themed, handmade candles! This event will celebrate our love of nature while teaching you a delicious new skill.

What's an "outdoor-themed" candle, you ask? Well, we've compiled a collection of naturey scented oils that will help you capture a little bit of the outside world for your home. We encourage you to come with a smell that screams "nature" to you, celebrating your favorite places or experiences. Whether that's your garden, the smell of a thunderstorm, an old woodsy cabin, or a mountain peak, we want to you experiment and create a scent specific to you and your adventures. Rebekah from DSM Mercantile will walk participants through the candlemaking process, and show Wanderers each step to crafting their candle.

As an added bonus, this night features a competition: Whichever scent is deemed Wander Women's favorite at the end of the night will win the honor of being Wander Women's newest official candle scent! The candles will be sold on Wander Women trips and on the shelves at DSM Mercantile. The winner will get a free candle and a small prize package from WW.

Candles will be made of 100% soy wax with wood wicks.

Registration is limited to 10 folks.
