Gel Candles Workshop

Ocean Theme Gel Candle Making Workshop in collaboration with Lippan Art Studio. 

Gel candle making is a fun and economical way to create stunning long-lasting scented candles, as gel candles burn 3-4 times longer than traditional wax candles. The gel candles are made with a transparent gel that perfectly shows off bright colors and glitter, which is perfect for creating dramatic-looking candles for special occasions.

Why Ocean Theme?

 

Disconnect to Reconnect

 

In our everyday lives, we are constantly bombarded with sensory stimuli, whether from our devices, busy homes, and offices, or hectic city streets. Our brains require downtime, yet we rarely get enough of it. Being around water gives the brain and the senses a rest from overstimulation. The ocean simplifies sounds, offering a white noise that literally drowns out other noise and distractions. Visual stimuli is also softened and lessened, offering an unfettered horizon that is free from the flashing distracting bombardment of visual stimuli that we are so acquainted with. The ocean offers us a delightful cognitive break because there’s simply less information to process. Our brains don’t shut down, they keep working, but in a different way that is more focused on simple awareness, creativity and spaciousness.

 The by or in the ocean has been proven to induce a meditative state that makes us happier, healthier, calmer, more creative, and more capable of connection.
