From the press release,
"SEATTLE – Come join us for an afternoon of perfumed candle-making with Nikki Sherritt of Gabriel's Aunt and Rebel and Mercury fame. Nikki is the creator of Aftelier Perfumes and Ayala Moriel Perfumes candles as well as her own line based right here in West Seattle.
This class covers the basics of candle-making at home; from choosing the right wicks to choosing the right wax. Two candles will be created during classs: A natural blend by Nikki and a Mixed Media Blend by Sweet Anthem's perfumer Meredith Smith. Because this class focuses on techniques rather than fragrances, students will not be able to choose the notes that go into their candle – rest assured the blends provided will be delectable!
Classes are taught at Sweet Anthem Handmade Perfumes – Meredith's atelier in the Morgan Junction neighborhood of West Seattle. Please plan for a two hour class for finding parking, enjoying the lecture, and most importantly – letting your candles cool enough to take home! During your class, you can purchase other candles and perfumes made by Nikki or Meredith, or sign up for more intensive courses to be held later in the summer.
