Lana, the founder of Prana by Lana, recently lost her store in the Pacific Palisades Fire & we are coordinating a Valentine's Day Candle Workshop in effort to help her build back her business.
About the class:
During the class you will get to learn how to make a soy free, paraffin free & chemical free candle, that uses shea butter and wood wicks. You will have a variety of flowers, crystals, and scents to choose from to make your own unique creation.
The scents provided are pure, plant-based essential oils that have been carefully distilled. The candle base is made from all-natural shea butter and candelilla wax. You will pour this base into a real coconut shell bowl, sourced directly from a small family farm in a Pueblo in Guerrero, Mexico. This family hand-shaves and polishes the coconut shell bowls for us, giving new life to materials that would otherwise go to waste.
At the end of the workshop, you'll take home your custom candle in a beautiful coconut shell bowl. Once the candle has burned, simply clean the bowl and repurpose it for dining or other uses. This workshop is both a fun, hands-on experience and a meaningful way to create something sustainable!
