Wick & Pour: A Scentsational Experience
When you experience something you needed but didn’t know you needed all you can do is thank the universe. Those moments allow for your heart chakra to expand and you end up learning a little more about yourself in the process. That was my recent experience at Wick & Pour in Rockaway, Queens.
A few weeks ago I took myself on a solo date to Wick & Pour located in Rockaway, Queens. They are New York City’s first full service candle making experience. An intimate space where you can tap into your creativity, learn to make candles, enjoy life with friends, and drink.
Immediately after walking in the establishment you are greeted with the warm smell of essential oils that almost instantaneously relax you. The candle suite is so aesthetically pleasing to the soul. The space has these large windows adding tons of natural daylight and a tiny glimpse of the beach. A super cute flower wall seating area. Oh…did I mention the alluring smell of essential oils.
My experience was led by owner Steven Kanemori who walked me through an hour long candle making journey. First starting with checking out the drink menu at my personal candle making station. Next.. I was able to choose from a variety of beautiful vessels, then heading to the essential oil wall to choose my aroma for my candle and any add-on’s like glitter.
Steven made the process so easy and fun. He provided step-by-step instruction and a few cool tips to finalize my candle. His wisdom and professionalism were much appreciated. He has such a dope calm personality we ended up talking about life, business, and the beach. It took about 15 minutes for my candle to dry before It was packaged up in a cute bag and I was ready to go..
If you are planning a date night, girls night out, or just a celebration this is the place. It’s fun, interactive, and a learning experience all in one. So grab your boo or your friends and book a session.
