We do offer seasonal classes tailored for children during the summer and spring break.

What’s the difference between the Candle Bar, an Experience, and a Class?Candle Bar: This is a hands-on, creative candle-making activity where you can select your custom scent, choose a vessel, and add fun extras such as add-ins and dye to personalize your candle. Experience: A themed version of the Candle Bar, offered monthly with different themes. The vessels and add-ins are themed, but regular options are also available for those who prefer a non-themed experience. Class: These are more detailed, instructor-led sessions lasting 2 hours. They are ticketed events with a specific theme, and you’ll receive all the necessary materials, including a vessel and selected fragrance for the class.

Can I bring my own food and beverages?Yes, here at Mission Crafts we are a BYOB space, so please feel free to bring those beverages and light snacks (Ex chips, candy, soda, etc). Note that you will need to bring your cups as we do not provide any of these items. If you come for your reservation with party platters (Ex charcuterie boards, sandwich/fruit trays, cupcakes, or any of the like) Your initial reservation fee will not be credited back to you as we will utilize this fee as a cleaning deposit. Limit one bottle of wine per pair, liquor is not allowed and there is a corking fee of $3 per bottle of wine.

How does the reservation deposit fee work?When reserving with us, a $5 reservation fee per participant is required. This deposit not only secures your seat but also acts as credit toward the total cost of your Candle-Making session upon arrival. Please be aware that the reservation fee is non-refundable once your reservation is booked and on our calendar. For instance, if you've paid for a group of 5 but only 4 attend the Candle-Making session, the reservation fee will only be credited for 4 participants. Further, if you have a reservation but need to cancel then your reservation fee will be held as a credit for a future Candle Making session, a class, or as a credit toward a purchase of gifts in-store (your credit never expires). This is due in part that your seats are secured for your date and time therefore no one else is able to book in.
-
How much does it cost?The cost of your Candle-Making can range from $40 and up depending on the vessel you choose typically our vessels range from anywhere from $40-$50. To make your candle extra fun we have Mica dyes and wax accessories for an additional cost as well. When you book with us, a $5 per person reservation fee will be credited toward your Candle-Making session.
-
Can I take my Candle home that day?Yes, you can take your candle home the day of. The candle will take anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour to dry. You also have the option to pick up your candle at a later time as well if you desire.

What if I'm late for my reservation?If you anticipate being late for your reservation, please contact us by phone or email to inform us in advance. If we do not receive notification and you are more than 30 minutes late, your reservation will be canceled. Please note that no credit or refund will be provided for missed reservations.
