Beeswax Luminary Make & Take Event

Description

Cherry City Honey is excited to announce an exclusive Beeswax Luminary Make & Take event taking place on November 9, 2024, at 10 AM. Limited to only 10 participants, this one-of-a-kind event offers a unique opportunity for attendees to create their own delicate, handcrafted beeswax luminary lantern. Whether you’re looking for a creative way to bond with friends or searching for a beautiful addition to your holiday centerpiece, this workshop promises to deliver a memorable experience.

Participants will learn all about the fascinating process of working with 100% pure beeswax, as well as gain insights into its benefits and uses, including its rich history. With expert guidance and step-by-step instructions provided by our skilled artisans, you will walk away with a completed beeswax luminary—a truly personal and one-of-a-kind piece that’s sure to wow guests during the holiday season.

Each luminary lantern is handcrafted from beeswax sourced directly from the hives at Cherry City Honey, known for its high-quality, pure, and natural beeswax products. Every luminary is a small work of art: molded carefully by hand and featuring a distinctive, soft honey scent. Attendees will discover how versatile beeswax can be, as the luminary gives off a warm and tranquil glow, making it perfect for any indoor setting. When lit with a tea light or color changing LED, the soft flicker of light shining through the handcrafted bowl offers a cozy ambiance, making it the perfect decorative element for winter nights or festive gatherings.

What to Expect at the Event:

• Education on Beeswax: Participants will receive an engaging introduction to the art of beeswax candle making, the natural properties of beeswax, and the benefits it offers. Beeswax has long been cherished for its ability to burn cleanly, emitting a sweet, natural fragrance of honey and providing a longer burn time than traditional candles. Attendees will leave with a deeper appreciation of this eco-friendly material.

• Step-by-Step Instructions: Cherry City Honey’s knowledgeable instructors will guide participants through the entire crafting process—from molding the beeswax to creating the perfect luminary shape. Each attendee will have the chance to customize their own unique bowl-shaped luminary, ensuring that no two pieces are alike.

• Creating Your Luminary: Using pure, locally sourced beeswax, participants will mold and shape their luminaries. The finished product will be a beautifully handcrafted candle lantern, ideal for use in any home setting. Each luminary is designed to hold a small tea light candle. We will send you home with a choice of a beeswax tealight or color changing LED tea light to enhance your decor. 

• Unique Character: One of the most special aspects of this project is the natural variation in each luminary’s appearance. The handcrafted nature of the process ensures that no two pieces are exactly the same. Over time, the rims of the lanterns may fade slightly to a stable point, adding character and enhancing the rustic, artisanal charm of the piece.

A Creative and Fun Experience for Friends and Families

The Beeswax Luminary Make & Take is a perfect opportunity to gather friends and family for a fun and educational experience. Whether you’re a seasoned crafter or a beginner, this event provides an easy-to-follow, engaging activity for everyone to enjoy. The limited class size ensures a personalized experience where participants can ask questions, receive individual guidance, and learn at their own pace. This intimate setting fosters creativity and community, making it an ideal weekend event for anyone interested in arts, crafts, or sustainable living.
