hey there! we love to create with you. that's why we've put together a lineup of awesome events focused on handcrafting something totally unique. in general, here's what you can expect:

• we host scent designing events (candle parties) every month, and schedule other events as we see demand/are able to do so
• our events run for multiple hours so that you can drop by any time that's convenient for you
• we never require an rsvp, but they are encouraged so that we can make sure we're prepared!
• we host during business hours, and it can get busy - please be patient with us if there's a bit of a wait
• come ready to have fun! we love to experiment and hope you will too
• we'll ask for payment upfront - this helps us keep track of things
• we do not accept returns or exchanges of custom products, so please make sure you are 100% happy with your creation before you submit it to us (scent designing events) or take it home (diy events)

bring us your beautiful, funky, and/or vintage empty vessels (aka containers). we will measure your vessels for total volume upon arrival, and you'll be charged $3.50 an ounce.

once you're paid up, you'll move on to the fun part of creating your signature scent combination. we'll have a number of different fragrances for you to play with. start by smelling all of them, and then experiment with different scent combinations! each vessel (6oz or more in volume) can use a blend of up to 3 different fragrances.

once you've chosen your scent combinations, just let us know, and that's it! we take your vessels and your scent and create your order.

your candles will not be poured on the spot, but you can expect a message from us within 7-10 business days letting you know your candles are ready for pickup.

come and go as you please during the event and take as little or as much time as you need - there's no rsvp required! hang out, visit, and shop with us.

vessel/container requirements:

• opening: minimum 2" wide; height: maximum 5" tall; volume: minimum 4 oz*
• must be able to hold liquid (no holes, including items like teapots)
• the vessel should basically be as wide at the mouth (top) is it is at the base (bottom)
• the inside bottom of the container must have a flat, smooth surface area for the wick to stick properly
• acceptable vessel materials: glass, ceramic, aluminum, brass
• must be clean - if not, a $2 cleaning fee will apply

we can't wait to party with you!

beaded bracelet bars

come in to the shop any time during the event. there's no need to bring anything with you. check in with us and pay before you play - each diy beaded bracelet is $28.

once you've paid, it's on to the fun part! look through our selection of beads and see which colors and crystals speak to you. we'll give you string so that you can put together the bead combination of your choice. this will probably take about 30 minutes, but you can take as much time as you need, and let us know if you need any help.

once you've settled on a combination you love, tie up your bracelet and you're ready to wear it home!

diy essential oil roll-ons

come in to the shop any time during the event. There's no need to bring anything with you. Check in with us and pay before you play - each roll-on is $28.

once you've paid, it's on to the fun part! we’ll have a selection of essential oils available for you to use. start by smelling all of them, and then play with different scent combinations. we'll give you an open roll-on container with base oil, and you’ll add whatever combination of scents you like to fill it up! take as much time as you need, and let us know if you need any help.

once you've created combination you love, pop your rollerball in and you’re ready to take your perfume home!

diy reed diffusers

when you arrive, choose your diffuser and any add-ons. (we'll have some decorative reeds, and diffuser bottles to choose from). the base price for a custom diffuser is $28.
