A candle-making workshop led by Stacy Ahua of Usu Company Candles, focusing on storytelling and personal connection while crafting scents inspired by memories.
Usu Company Candles is hosting a candle-making workshop at Copperline Plant Co. on Sunday, October 11, from 3 PM to 5 PM. It's led by Stacy Ahua, the founder of Usu Company Candles, who'll be guiding the session.
This isn't your average candle-making class. Instead of a standard craft session where you just follow a recipe, the focus here is on storytelling and personal connection. You'll be crafting a scent inspired by the memories and stories you know and love, so the candle you walk away with is tied to something specific from your own life rather than just a generic fragrance. It's more of a creative exercise than a simple DIY project.
The workshop is hosted by Copperline Plant Co., a shop in the Fayetteville Street district of Downtown Raleigh that sells a wide selection of plants, pots, and accessories. They also run plant care classes and consultations out of the same space, so this fits right in with the kind of things they do. If you've been in there before, you know the vibe—lots of greenery and a focus on keeping things alive.
