Custom Candle Experience

Made by YOU in DC

How our Candle Lab works

At District Candle Lab, we believe in the magic of creativity and the power of personal touch.

Here are a few notes about our candle bar.

Weekend availability is very limited and reservations are strongly recommended!!! Walk-ins are subject to availability, especially on the weekends.

IMPORTANT: Rescheduling and cancellation less than 24 hours within your reserved time will result in losing your reservation fee!!!

Custom candle making experience takes around 30-45 minutes.

Candles will be ready for pick-up 2 hours after being poured. If you make your candle at 4 pm or later, you would need to pick up the next day.

We hold on to your candles for a week but after that we have to donate them due to limited space.

Guests under 16 years of age must have an adult present for the duration of the candle making experience.

Please arrive at your designated reservation time. We are unable to guarantee reservations after 15 minutes past the determined start time. 

Come enjoy the art of making a custom candle!!!

At District Candle Lab, you won't only make candles. You'll get to dive into the world of fragrance, customize and create something completely from scratch and leave our shop with a unique candle made by you.
