By Marcella Peyre-Ferry Contributing Writer Candles make wonderful home décor, and the experience of making them yourself makes them even better. At Candle Studio 1422, located at 100 Sycamore Alley in historic Kennett Square, you can create your own soy candle in your personal favorite scents and complete it with a personalized label. The process starts with exploring available scents. Choose up to six scents that appeal to you from a wide selection of fragrance oils. Try them out in combinations on scent blotters to come up with the perfect scent for your one-of-akind candle. Heated soy wax will be provided to you. You will then add your custom fragrance blend, stir, and pour your candle into its vessel. The final step is to give your candle a name and create a label. Candles need at least two hours to solidify once they have been poured. People may come back the same day or pick up their candle another day. There is also an option to have the candles shipped.
