Candle Making Bootcamp Starts May 12th!

We’ve heard from so many aspiring candle makers who want to take that next step, but are understandably hesitant to invest.
So we’re doing something we’ve never done before.

For a limited time, our full 4-week Candle Making Bootcamp is available for just $97 (normally $197–$247).
This is the same full experience—weekly live calls, candle math, wick testing, supply guidance, niche clarity, recipes, templates—nothing held back.
It starts May 12. Don't worry, it is all recorded and you have lifetime access if you can't attend the live sessions. 
If you've been waiting for the right moment, this might just be it.
