Design Your Own Candle in 3D!

Create your own candles using molding and casting! Using all natural beeswax and essential oils of your choice, make customized candles using 3D printed objects. Using either the previous design patrons created or one of our pre-made designs, participants can learn how to mold and cast using melted candle wax that they can turn into a real product they can take home.

Please note: This is Part 2 of a two-part workshop series. Candle Making Workshop—Part 1—will take place in the Vitale Digital Media Lab on October 14. We encourage you to join both sessions! In Part 1, you'll learn how to 3D design a positive mold object using TinkerCAD which we will 3D print out for you!
