A Crafty Birthday Plan in NYC: Make Candles With Your Friends

Dinner is always an option. But if you’re looking for a birthday plan in NYC where you and your friends can actually do something together, come make candles with us at Vela!

Our Hell’s Kitchen studio is a place to catch up, get creative, and leave with something you made yourself. During a hands-on candle-making workshop, you’ll choose your fragrance, melt and pour your wax, and make a candle that feels like you. No crafting experience needed. We are also BYOB. And when you celebrate with at least three paying guests, your birthday candle is on us! Can it get any better?!

Invite a few friends to join you at a candlemaking workshop, and then head out for dinner or drinks while your candles finish curing. It’s an easy way to give everyone something to do together without having to plan the entire day around one activity. You’ll each go home with a candle and a reminder of the celebration. If you’d rather have the studio to yourselves, ask us about a private birthday workshop. We can help you plan a celebration around your group, whether you want a relaxed afternoon or a creative start to a night out in the city.
