Making Candles with Evil Queen

Stuff We Love

Looking for something cool to do with teens (16+) or adults during spring break? Recently, we took a trip to Evil Queen Candles in the Warehouse MRKT in downtown Traverse City. In addition to their retail space, they offer candle making classes, where you can choose your own glass vessel and create your own scent from hundreds of combinations. An Evil Queen staff member will guide your group through a straightforward process: You’ll use a little scale to measure out your chosen fragrances (based on the size of your candle jar), mix it up with the wax, and voila! A candle! Each class takes about 30-45 minutes, and the candles take roughly three hours to cool after pouring, so you can come back the next day to pick them up (or shipping is available for $10). Head to shopevilqueen.com to book a class and learn more.
