You step off Broughton Street into a space warmed by melted wax and bright glass jars — the hum of downtown Savannah just beyond the doorway and the river salt air drifting through the windows. Under simple instruction you select scent, color, and vessel; a slow pour becomes a small, satisfying ritual. An hour here stretches, focused and tangible: scent choices, a measured pour, and the quiet pause while wax cools and sets.
