Behind WaxArtDesign is not a large corporation, but a real story of effort, sacrifice, enthusiasm, and a deep love for Catalonia. Coro and her daughter Sarid arrived from Venezuela in 2004, when Sarid was only 6 years old. Raised and educated entirely in Vic for 16 years, Sarid is now 25 years old and, like her mother Coro, both feel this land as their own and as their true home. In 2020, guided by their love for the sea and the Costa Brava, they decided to move to Platja d'Aro and, just a year ago, they made their dream of opening their own physical store and creative space come true. It is a family project poured with soul to grow and move forward together through handmade crafts.
The space's star offering is its creative workshops for making 100% natural soy wax artisanal candles and personalized containers. Beyond the craftsmanship, the true magic of the workshop lies in seeing how attendees manage to completely disconnect from their mobile phones and the daily grind. It is an immersive and intimate experience where everyone rediscovers the joy of childhood by choosing scents, colors, and finishes, finding in this space a haven of calm and creativity.
The workshops are held every selected Saturday, Sunday, and holiday, always by prior reservation to ensure small groups and personal attention. The workshop includes all high-quality materials, the attentive guidance of mother and daughter, and a snack with a drink: sangria or a glass of wine, and in the morning sessions, coffee, juice, or water with something sweet to nibble on. They have become a perfect plan for gifting an experience rather than an object, and a highly sought-after option for hen and stag parties, birthdays, moments alone, as a couple, or gatherings with friends.
In addition to in-person workshops, WaxArtDesign offers services in its physical store and on its online website, creating personalized candles and artisanal favors for weddings, events, and decoration throughout the year. For more information, to consult the workshop calendar, or to make a reservation, you can visit their official website at https://waxartdesign.com/, follow their daily life on Instagram (@waxartdesign), or visit their physical store directly in Platja d'Aro.
