About Our Studios
At M.I.Y Candle Co. & Creative Studios, creativity isn’t just something you buy — it’s something you experience.
Located in the heart of Catonsville, Maryland, M.I.Y. was created as a place where people could come together, create something with their own hands, and make memories in the process. What began with candle making has grown into a creative studio offering a variety of hands-on experiences, including fragrance blending, body care, fiber arts, special events, and more.
Our instructor-guided workshops are designed for individuals, couples, families, friends, private groups, and corporate teams. Whether you're planning a date night, birthday, team-building event, or simply trying something new, we provide the space, materials, and guidance — you make the experience your own.
At M.I.Y., every creation is personal, and every visit is an opportunity to Create. Connect. Experience.
