I LOVED this class! Jess and Leigh were so knowledgeable, creative and energetic. The space was beautiful and inspiring. Everything was so fun. I'll definitely be back for another class at Indigo & Violet Studio!

So much fun! Geat time making soy candles and our custom scents.

Very fun class! Made some amazing smelling candles! Loved that we got to blend our own scents!

Jess is great! Making candles was so much easier than I expected - and you are provided with all the scents you could ever want to make it the way you want it!

The overall experience was friendly and fun! Great way to escape the Chicago cold...and also a great way to get out of the house! The process of creating the candle was explained at the beginning. After, it was time to disperse and get to creating. Thankfully the instructor would make rounds to make sure everyone was doing alright. Any questions that sprang up were answered accordingly. Glad to have learned about scents during this Dabble experience. I recommend it for any age group!

There were 5 students in our candle-making class, very fun group and fun instructor! Step by step informative and educational experience on the process of candle-making! Will definitely do this again with my friends!

We had a great time learning about how to construct different fragrance profiles and building our own personal scents!

I host a variety of events for the alumni of a program that I work for. This was by far the most engaged and well attended event I've had so far! Jess was a fabulous teacher- calm, attentive, accommodating, and knowledgeable. The candlemaking itself was fun to do something new but was simple enough to allow for connection and laughter between participants. Thank you for a great time, we'll be back!

What a fun way to spend an evening with friends! Making your scent profile for the candles and melting the wax yourself was super fun. The host was fantastic and very knowledgeable about all things candles and was very easy to talk to!

Jess is knowledgeable, encouraging, and awesome! This class was so inspiring. It is great to create something that I use so often in my own home. I also learned a lot about the different kinds of wax used in candles. Jess makes the class simple and fun. Plus, you get to create your signature scent!

A fun and laid back way to do something creative with friends! Love my diy soy candle :))

Amazing class! Jess was great, explaining how soy-based waxes and fragrances work and showing us how to mix different scents. She brought tasty cocktails and all the candle-making stuff we needed; we all had a total blast.

Loved Jess' candle-making class. So much fun and super informative! Hope to sign up again soon!

The class was very easy and fun! A few of us in the class became interested in continuing to making our own candles and had many questions for Jess. She was very open and willing to answer all of our questions! There were tons of oil options to create our own scents and helpful guides to explain how to best mix smells. So glad I took the class!

Great class! It was a perfect middle of the afternoon treat to hang out and make candles. Jess is super friendly and willing to answer any questions. I learned a lot about scent theory, and I was delighted by my end product! The margaritas Jess made rounded out the whole experience!

This class was so fun! The teacher gave excellent, easy to follow instructions and had tons of materials for everyone to make whatever scented candle they desired. I would highly recommend this class!

My friend/coworker suggested we take this class as something unique for us to do on a Saturday afternoon. It was a great way to spend the day! We brought our own canister for the completed candles but otherwise everything was provided to us. I was a little uncertain going into the class if it would be messy, overwhelming, and how I would come up with my own signature scent but we received exactly the right amount of instruction and guidance for what we needed. The margaritas provided were also delicious.

I really enjoyed this class with Jess! She's a great teacher! I received a basic understanding of how to make a soy candle, and then created a custom scent for a candle from a ridiculous amount of fragrance choices...... Amazing!! This is a great class; I walked away feeling like I learned a lot; but also with a new appreciation for soy candles/local creations.

Super fun and informative class! I have made a few candles in the past, but my husband was a newbie! Jess was great at explaining each step and shared some of her techniques. Both him and I learned a lot! If you are looking for a cool date night idea - would totally recommend!

Excellent class! Very informative, great atmosphere, and I love the resulting candles. Will definitely be doing this again in the future!

This was our second time taking the candle class and it was still just as much fun! My friend and I wanted to review the process to create candles on our own at home and went back to Jess's class because it was so helpful the first time. I walked out of there with two nice smelling candles and the feeling that I could branch out on my own. Great class.

This class was so much fun! We were given paper handouts of fragrance theory and she was super knowledgeable about what makes a good scent. Would definitely recommend this class. I made 3 small candles.

Had so much fun! Really enjoyed his one. Hoping to do it again soon!

Nice class - pretty straightforward. The teacher was very positive and enthusiastic. I just wish we could've left with more than one candle :)

I had so much fun! There were so many scents to choose from and blend! I made 3 little Christmas presents and was very please with the results. I attended the class at Eye Spy Optical and we tried on glass frames while the wax was cooling - some were even purchased!

Such a fun class! The teacher Jess, is very helpful and knowledgeable.

The instructor Jess was so sweet and very personable! I've taken candle making classes before, but this one focused on creating your own signature fragrance. And I love that I was able to repurpose an old glass I had to create my custom candle. I highly recommend this class!

I turned this in to a date night with my boyfriend (and yes, he was the only guy there) and we had a great time! The teacher, Jess, was very sweet and knowledgeable and you could tell she was passionate about what she was teaching! Being able to mix and match different oils to create a unique scent was fantastic. I honestly can't say enough great things about this class! Oh, and the cocktails were good too ;)

I took this class with a few friends and we loved it. I came home with two delightful candles and I now feel like I could rock candle making in my own home.

Very fun and informative class! Cozy location, good hot toddies, and good instruction.

This class was an absolute blast! From the aesthetics of pouring wax to the art + science of scent creation to the plentiful cocktails, a great time was had by all. Jess is a thoroughly fun and knowledgeable teacher. Real talk? If you aren't taking a date to this class You. Are. Messing. Up.

This was a great way to unwind after a long week! The instructor is super fun and provided us with delicious cocktails in addition to some helpful tips about candlemaking. Because making the candles is a low key craft, this would be a great class to catch up with a friend (even though I came by myself and had a great time!).

This class was so much fun and very informative. I would highly recommend taking it if you are interested. The teacher was very knowledgeable, helpful, and super sweet.

I went here for a girls night a few months ago with my mom, aunt, and sister. the instructor was helpful, relaxed, and flexible. We had a blast.

I purchased this class for my mom and I to take as part of a retirement gift for her. We both really enjoyed the class and the instructor, Jess. And our candles smell amazing!

I highly recommend taking this candle-making course with Jessica! The class was fun and relaxing. You also learn how easy it is to make a candle. Jessica provides a wide array of scents for you to choose from and clearly explains each step of candle making. She also makes really good hot toddy drinks. The Paperish Mess store is really cool and I ended up buying a few things. FYI -- if you are one of the students, you get 10% off your Paperish Mess purchase. Great class!!

I wasn't sure if I'd enjoy this class since I'm not very good at crafty things, but I ended up having a lot of fun. The candles were very easy to make with step by step instructions given. There's a big variety of scents to choose from so your candle can smell however you want. Mine turned out looking beautiful and the hot toddies were a nice complement to the class. Highly recommend.

Learned about soy candle making and definitely enjoyed the hot toddies!!
I enjoyed Jessica's energy as she guided us during the candle making process.
Would take this class again and bring a friend!!!

We had a great experience making soy candles and drinking hot toddies with Jess! Paperish Mess was an awesome location for the class - we all left with little trinkets from the store (10% off for class attendees!). The class itself was fun. We learned about soy wax and the benefits to burning soy candles vs. other types of wax. We loved picking the oils and mixing them to create our own signature scents!

Really great class. Jess is awesome and was very helpful and willing to answer any and all questions. Hot toddys were also a plus. Love the candles we made

I really liked this class and came away with two beautiful candles. Lots f good info given and I feel confident making my own candles at home now with this new information.

I had great time! The instructor was energetic, nice and enthusiastic. She explained and answered every question. The people were all very nice also. I would definitely recommend taking this class as well as doing it again myself. I love my candle!

So much fun and super inspiring!

I had a great time making candles. The technique was well-taught and I learnt a lot in addition to having fun! The hot toddies were such a pleasant touch. I loved it!

This is the second time I've taken this class because I love it so much! Wonderful teacher, really informative, and I appreciated learning the science behind pairing scents to put in candles. Love the little store the class is in, and the adult beverages during the class were a really nice touch. Would definitely take it again!

Came with friends and had a blast. Creating the fragrance for the candle was really fun and we learned a lot.

I really enjoyed this class. The wax was super easy to melt and fill the containers with. I took home three decently sized candles. There were tons of scents to choose from. Not sure I really understood the science of which fragrances mixed best with others, but the ones I randomly chose ended up smelling great!

This was my first time taking a class through Dabble. I went with some girlfriends and accidentally bought the wrong date. It was completely my error, but the Dabble team moved me to the correct class without any hassle.

I took the Soy Wax Scented Candle Making class with Jessica Snivley. She was a knowledgeable and attentive teacher, but she also gave us the freedom to express ourselves with whatever scents we wanted to play with. We had a great time and we each made two candles. They all turned out amazing! And they smell wonderful! I was worried mine would be overpowering or just gross, but she explained how to balance scent in a very plane and easy way at the beginning of class, and I don't think anyone had a problem or ended up with a candle that they wouldn't want to burn later. My girlfriends and I can't wait to try this at home on our own. All in all, it was a very good class and I would recommend it to anyone, unless you are sensitive to smell. Once all the bottles got opened up, it was a little intense, but it's a scented candle making class, so you have to expect that going in.

Thanks, Jessica and the Dabble Team!

Jess was very helpful and had great scent suggestions! I left with an awesome smelling candle!

This class was so much fun! We learned how to make candles and created our own scent, and the teacher's candles are sold in Target! I recommend this to anyone wanting to try something new.

Jess was amazing! So kind, humble, positive, and fun! I love that the class size is small so it's more of an intimate class and she's able to spend time with each of us to create our one of a kind candle! I want to come back every weekend.

Was an awesome class !!!?

Great class! My goal was to learn the candle making process so I can make them right from home, and I totally can. Very positive teacher and she answered all of our questions that we threw at her. I'd definitely recommend this class.

This was such a fun class! If you are curious about candle making and learning about the use of different scents then take this class! Jessica is a great teacher and answered everyone's questions! :)

I love this class! I've taken it twice and am now addicted to making my own candles at home. Jessica is great!

I really enjoyed this class! The teacher was friendly and shared with us her knowledge about making candles.

My friend and I loved Jess and loved the class. What we appreciated most was the science behind it- it wasn't just, "mix some stuff and it'll smell pretty!" but really understanding what composes a scent and then how to choose materials to make candles easily at home. Really fun, loved the space the class was held in and would highly recommend!

Class was fun. Teacher and students were very nice. I enjoyed it.

The Soy Candle making class provided an awesome afternoon of bonding for my mom and I. We had a blast learning to cretae our own scents and complete the whole candle making process. I would recommend this to anyone!

Great size class with 4 people. This is actually something I will continue to do on my own.

Jessica was amazing! I arranged for the class with my sister in law and her friends for a baby shower. Jessica was so much fun and everyone talked way after the class around how unique and fun it was. On top of that, the owner of Paperis Mess decorated the room for us a variety of cards that were baby themed and it just made the whole experienced perfect. It was the most thoughtful touch!! I look forward to taking another one of Jessica's classes. She is awesome!

It was a small class [6 people + 1 mom who tagged along :) ], so me and my two friends were half the class. This ended up working out well because the space was on the smaller-side and required us to occasionally split into two groups. But we were all together around a table while we mixed our scents and it was fun to see how people's personalities came out in their choices... :D And I felt our end products (for me it was 2 medium-sized candles and 1 mini candle) were equal to the cost of the class/supplies. I love my candles and would definitely do this again!

Jennifer taught a wonderful class on soy candle making. Very laid back and informative! It's also a really great scented class.
