Chicago, IL - Above Average Candle Studio, Chicago’s premier hands-on crafting destination, is introducing an all-new event experience titled “LOVE IS BLIND!” — a fresh, immersive candle making series designed to foster creativity, connection, and celebration. Known for its warm, welcoming atmosphere and consistent five-star reviews, the studio continues its mission of providing inclusive, high-quality experiences that bring people together through craft.
Situated in the heart of North Park, the cozy garden-level studio has already welcomed over 3,000 guests and earned more than 700 perfect five-star reviews. Above Average Candle Studio has become a local favorite for hosting birthdays, team-building workshops, bridal showers, family gatherings, and much more. “LOVE IS BLIND!” represents the studio’s next step in offering meaningful events that focus on collaboration, creativity, and community spirit.
Unlike traditional group workshops, this new experience encourages participants to engage in a sensory journey through scent design and candle creation, all within a carefully curated and supportive space. “LOVE IS BLIND!” features multiple themed sessions across different evenings, allowing guests to explore fragrance blending and craft making alongside a rotating set of like-minded individuals. Each session offers a relaxed setting where visitors can express themselves artistically, learn something new, and share genuine moments with others.
At the heart of this initiative is Above Average Candle Studio’s unwavering commitment to inclusion, accessibility, and quality. Founder and owner Ogi Emiabata has emphasized the importance of creating a space where all guests feel seen, respected, and inspired. “We designed this event for anyone seeking a break from routine, an opportunity to unwind, and a chance to create something beautiful in a supportive community setting,” Emiabata explains.
All candles are made with 100% soy wax and blended with natural, eco-friendly ingredients — a reflection of the studio’s focus on sustainability and wellness. The sessions are guided by skilled facilitators who ensure that every guest is encouraged and empowered throughout the candle making process. Whether participants are new to crafting or seasoned enthusiasts, the experience is designed to be both approachable and enriching.
The “LOVE IS BLIND!” event builds on the studio’s reputation for excellence and innovation in the DIY space. Rather than offering a traditional crafting class, this new concept integrates sensory exploration, hands-on activity, and shared creativity in an inviting environment. The team behind Above Average Candle Studio takes pride in their attention to detail and their ability to deliver memorable experiences that resonate with guests long after the event ends.
One of the standout features of this new series is the studio’s thoughtful programming, which groups each session by specific themes. This format encourages engagement, storytelling, and laughter, while also offering opportunities for reflection and relaxation. The focus is always on the experience — making each evening unique and personalized.
Above Average Candle Studio was founded with a customer-first mindset, and that philosophy is reflected in every interaction. The studio’s crew goes above and beyond to make sure guests feel welcome and valued, helping them turn every visit into a meaningful tradition. The team’s goal is to be more than just a space for crafting — they strive to be a trusted creative hub where memories are made and community is nurtured.
The launch of “LOVE IS BLIND!” continues the studio’s growth as a leader in Chicago’s creative experience scene. As more people seek out activities that blend artistry, mindfulness, and human connection, Above Average Candle Studio stands out by offering genuine moments of creativity in a world that often moves too fast.
For those seeking a fresh, elevated way to spend their time — away from screens and into the world of scent, wax, and wicks — this event offers a meaningful opportunity to slow down, create, and connect.
