This is exactly the experience you'll have at ReWax and UnWine. First, Justine and Caleb, thank you so much for making this experience, memorable. Justine was simply personable and had a personality that lit up the room and made every guests feel welcome as she took the time to remember all of our names. In a packed room, that's impressive but it made the experience feel exclusive! Caleb added to the fun by supporting with our candle mixtures and hosted karaoke, we had a blasts! Ambiance: think of a cute cozy candle shop, but add lively colors, greenery, cute pink seats, and hues of gold to set the mood-STUNNING! Value: the public classes are $60 per person and come with a standard size candle and small 7ml tin candle. For an additional fee, you can upgrade to the 22ml, which I did. Trust me, it's worth every penny. The scent selections are very unique and if you need more convincing, my special guy enjoyed the selections of woodsy and bourbon scents because he was able to personalize it to tailor his taste while I went with warm & sweet scents. Public classes hold up to 18 people and you can rent out the space for a private event for up to 34 people. In addition to candle making, it's BYOB (wine or champagne) no outside snacks allowed for public classes but you can inquire more about your private class experience through the website. While our candles cooled off, the mics were turned on and guests had a blast singing, dancing, and cheering each other one. This place promotes Black excellences and supports inclusivity. It's a places where everyone is welcome because the thing we all share in common is a love for candles and music-what isn't to love about that! I cannot wait to return. So glad that I found this place.

My friend and I went to the last class that they offer, 9pm, and we ended up being the only two there and got the one on one treatment. Justine was great! She was so nice and helpful. She explained each step of the process and allowed me to take my time picking my scents. There were 50 scents to choose from. Included in the class was one small candle and one medium candle but they allow you to upgrade and mix and match. I upgraded my medium candle to the large candle for only $10 more. They also offer colors and other add ins such as flowers and jewel pieces to make your candle really unique. There is a lot of room for creativity here. While you wait for your candle to finish, you can do karaoke or just chill out and have a nice time. It's also BYOB. They have different events depending on the day of the week, so you can choose the vibe you're looking for. I really enjoyed myself and would love to come back or maybe even host a friend's night. They have a more private room that you can book too.

I first discovered this place because my son goes to the Upton Boxing Center less than a mile away. I was invited to come by one of my friends. Her Sister Megan Lewis had her artwork featured for a month. Upon arrival the Customer Service was amazing. They had snacks and stuff. I got a chance to meet the artist and view the artwork. One of the hosts encouraged me to go upstairs where they were making plates in honor of Sibby Grant. So I received a quick history lesson while I was there. Libby Grant wrote a letter to her slave owner Confederate POW John Hanson Thomas. They had the actual letter which was really impressive considering she was a slave and she could really write. So we made plates, which was going on a display at the Walters Art Museum Gallery. They also have classes daily at night from 5-8. I am so excited about this hidden gem. They will see be back really soon.
