Halloween Pumpkin Candle Painting Workshop
Looking for a creative way to celebrate Halloween in NYC? Join us for a pumpkin candle painting workshop at Oblique Table, where you’ll turn a sculptural, pumpkin-spice-scented candle into your own little piece of autumn art.
Inspired by the unusual shapes of fall gourds, these candles are full of character. Think crooked stems, bumpy textures, and playful pumpkin shapes — each one a little different.
🎃 What You’ll Do
In this hands-on Halloween workshop, you’ll paint and decorate your own pumpkin-shaped candle using colors, patterns, and little details of your choice.
Go for classic autumn colors, tiny ghosts, spooky patterns, or something completely unexpected.
We’ll walk you through the materials and techniques before you get started. No painting experience needed!
