Candlemaking Behind The Scenes – Our new workshop

Welcome to A Little Light. 

I thought you might like a little behind the scenes glimpse of my workshop.

This is where the mess and magic happen. 
This is where wax, wicks and dyes transform into something more.

This is where good conversation reins while our hands are busy making.
This is where you’ll find me listening to an audio book while working late into the night.

This is where I lose myself in my craft, and a little beauty is added to the world.
