This workshop invites you to create personalized holiday gifts by hand in a collaborative setting at Fenton Igloo. Participants will craft custom artisan soy candles and goat milk soaps during this guided, hands-on session.

Throughout the afternoon, you will receive step-by-step instruction on candle pouring and soap making techniques. The experience allows for full customization, letting you choose your own fragrances and decorative elements. You will leave the event with your own finished goods, perfect for holiday gifting or home use.

This event is designed for anyone looking to step away from retail shopping and engage in a creative project. The atmosphere is relaxed and festive, making it an ideal environment to learn a new skill while connecting with others. Whether you are an experienced crafter or a complete beginner, no prior knowledge is necessary to succeed. We encourage you to bring your holiday spirit and join us for this productive afternoon.
