Meet Taylor Bragg

Hello candle babes! My name is Taylor, founder of Bragg About Art and Hummingbird Market NC. I started my candle-making journey in 2022 as a relaxing creative hobby to help supplement my painting business.

Since I love to thrift, I wanted to make candles in secondhand containers to keep my business as low-waste as possible. What started as a fun hobby eventually blossomed into one of the biggest parts of my business!

Using vintage tea cups, locally sourced Candlescience fragrance oils, local dried flowers, and ethically sourced crystals, I create candles that are unique, one-of-a-kind, and CUTE. While you can always purchase a candle from me at a market or select retail locations (listed below), I also teach candle making workshops, so you can make your own special scent! Read more below...

Create, Learn, and Commune!

More than Your Average Candle Workshop

My candle workshops are designed to teach you the ancient art of candle making with the added fun of choosing your own vintage container, along with crystals and dried florals! Each candle is unique and personal to you, and I want my participants to feel relaxed and empowered to make something beautiful.

Fun for All Ages

From kids to adults, my workshops are versatile and can easily be customized based on the venue, age group, and specific requirements. Kiddos as young as 8 can enjoy candle making as long as a guardian is with them.

All Around the Triangle

I currently teach regular workshops in Durham, Raleigh, Garner, and Knightdale. Do you have a venue or know of one that would be a good fit? Message me below!
