Holiday Candle Making with RELUME CO.

  • Femme Fatale DC 3409 Connecticut Ave. NW Washington DC (map)

Replace toxic wax candles with an all-natural soy candle that you’ll pour into a vintage teacup or container. Custom holiday scents avail!

Pour your own soy candle with local candlemaker Lilly of Relume. You'll select your favorite vintage vessel, create a custom scent blend, and top the wax with crushed flower petals and more! Relume will guide you in this unique DIY experience, sending you home with a one-of-a-kind candle (and after burning, the container is ready to re-use.)

Choose from vintage porcelain, crystal, stoneware, handmade ceramics, and beyond. Follow their scent blend recipes or choose your own adventure, with over 30 fragrances available to create blends such as Magnolia Amber, Jasmine White Tea, Maple Cardamom, Lavender Earl Grey, Eucalyptus Mint, Palo Santo Sage, Aloe + Cactus Blossom, and Coriander Lemongrass.

**HOLIDAY SCENTS WILL ALSO BE AVAILABLE!** These include Mulled Cider, Ginger Chai, Pumpkin Chai, Mistletoe + Juniper Sage, and Pomegranate + Frasier Fir.

Choose from 2 start times:

  • 1:00 pm

  • 2:30 pm

It takes about 30 minutes to make the candle and 1 hr for it to harden. Get your holiday shopping done in the Femme Fatale Retail flagship while your candle cools.
