Your Scent, Your Label, Your Vibe: Candle-Making in Upper Kirby
Melt soy wax, stir in botanicals and pour a candle around a scent you blended, in a studio on Audley Street in Upper Kirby.
BLUMOON SCENTS teaches this class in its own studio in Upper Kirby, and the booking's meeting point is the studio itself. The listing is signed by KC, who calls herself a biochemist turned chandler and writes that years of studying chemicals and toxins led her to eco-friendly materials. The wax is soy, which the studio's own booking page calls plant-based, and the brand says it has made its products in small batches since 2018. No candle-making experience is needed. The listing pitches the class to solo guests, couples, friends and team-building groups alike.
Booking runs through Viator with instant confirmation, and a mobile or paper ticket works. As of October 17, 2026, a seat costs USD 49 on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday and USD 55 on Friday and Saturday, the same for ages 8 to 12. The USD 40 starting price on the listing belongs to weekday daytime slots that are not running.

The listing walks the session through in order: an overview of how candles are made, melting the wax, blending and formulating a signature scent, adding botanicals, and designing a personalized label, with guests invited to set the vibe as the DJ. Each guest leaves with one full-size 8 oz candle. A July 2024 reviewer who came on a girls' trip recommended it for "an outing with friends, date night or even a solo outing," and a March 2025 reviewer singled out the scents and how they blend.
Suite 110 on Audley Street, in Upper Kirby
The class meets in Suite 110 at 3330 Audley Street, in a white building that the studio's booking page says can be entered from Audley Street or Colquitt Street; look for the single-panel glass doors. Park in the spaces around the building, or on the street, which the studio says is free as long as the posted signs allow it. The listing describes the spot as the heart of Upper Kirby, in the River Oaks area near the Galleria and the Southwest Freeway, and tickets are redeemed at check-in.
Weeknight Evenings, Weekend Afternoons, From Age 8
As of October 17, 2026, the booking calendar shows sessions at 6:30 PM on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, at 3:00 PM and 6:30 PM on Saturday, and at 4:00 PM on Sunday. Monday and Wednesday have none, Saturday, December 5 is closed, and no date after December 31 was open yet. Bookings close three hours before each start. The studio allows a 15-minute grace period, and later arrivals cannot join and have to reschedule. Plan for a full two hours: the listing sells a two-hour class, while the studio's own calendar books most of these sessions at an hour and a half. Children 8 to 12 pay the adult price, nobody under 8 can book, and every booking needs at least one guest 13 or older.
Bring Your Own Bottle, and Budget for Corkage
Alcohol is BYOB for guests 21 and over, and the studio does not sell or serve any. The studio's BYOB policy charges a corkage fee of USD 15 per bottle of outside alcohol. Guests bring their own mixers, ice and cups, and staff may ask for a government-issued ID. All candle-making supplies are included in the ticket. For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the start time; inside 24 hours there is no refund. Anyone who uses a wheelchair should contact the studio before booking. The listing ticks wheelchair access, and the rental listing the studio keeps for the same room describes step-free access and an accessible parking spot, but it marks accessible toilets as unavailable.
