Fall into Self-care: Autumn Candle Workshop
October 11, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
$45.00Fall into the embrace of the season and craft your own 8oz candle infused with the warm, comforting scents of autumn. Each candle is crafted using a blend of soy, coconut, and food-grade paraffin waxes. Delight in creating your own candle that is non-toxic, vegan, biodegradable and skin-safe.
Your guide on this sensorial journey is Fantasia Dunton, a dedicated mental health advocate who dreams of becoming a therapist and helping individuals rediscover and heal their inner selves. With her deep commitment to self-care and discipline, Fantasia recognizes the transcendent power of candles in our self-care routines. Candles, especially those infused with 100% essential oils, can uplift moods, induce tranquility, and alleviate stress. Whether you’re immersing yourself in a hot shower, indulging in a bath soak, diving deep into yoga, finding solace in meditation, or getting lost in a book, a candle can be your radiant companion. The unique crackling wick in Fantasia’s candles will transport you to nights spent by the campfire or listening to the sounds of rhythmic rain.
Fantasia’s journey as an artisan and advocate was inspired by her role as a single mother to her special-needs daughter, Patience Serenity. With a medically complex child, Fantasia was propelled into a world of cautious decisions, particularly regarding what touches her daughter’s skin. This quest for safe, organic alternatives led her to craft blends like her double butter mix of shea and mango combined with organic carrier oils. With time, Fantasia expanded her repertoire to include organic perfume roll-ons, invigorating shower tea bags, rejuvenating body scrubs, shimmering aloe vera sprays, and much more. And thus, “Serenity & Me LLC” was born, a loving ode to her daughter.
Join Fantasia in this immersive workshop, craft a custom candle, and embark on a journey to harness the therapeutic powers of these radiant lights in your self-care rituals.
