3.5 Stars Located in…read moreYorkville this tiny store caught my friend's and my eye. We wandered in to see what lovely things they had. First off they carry the Lamp Berger products (lamps/fragrance holders). These are a French based company going back to the early 1900s and so lovely to look at it! I saw quite a few places selling them in Paris and I just loved to look at the pretty bottles so I was happy to discover I could buy one here! So many designs from the streamlined to the blingy. Think of large perfume bottle type of shapes. They are expensive but I heard the liquid you buy lasts quite a long time. They had 3 liquid bottles for $20 which I think is a great deal considering most of the lamps are about $50-$100 here depending on the size/design but it's a functional as well as decorative piece. There are the typical Yankee Company candles sold here as well as some really unique candle holders. The owner is really friendly and she has a lot of knowledge about the products sold.

This is my go-to candle store in Toronto. A full suite selection, ranging from made-in-Canada to…read moremade-in-France, this store has everything. Also well stocked with fabulous decoration for every reason. The owners are incredible - knowledgeable, kind, and extremely grateful for your business. I stock up every time I go - and this is a destination spot for holiday shopping of all types. Highly recommended for the consumer that loves to support local businesses, but also for the refined shopper that needs to find the "special touch" to make their living room, dining room, or bedroom "pop" with style and flair.

Went on a Sunday morning for a candle making class with my family…read more We were welcomed by two super friendly staff. We got our drinks (included in the candle making class), while waiting for others to show up for the session. Once in the room, we were instructed by our candle teacher how to mix notes and scents together, it was super fun; especially for my two girls and surprisingly for mr. Tran too. Such a cute thing to bring your family to, or even a date night.

However, I thought the instruction we received was rushed; the way our instructor was speaking was monotonous, as if they instructed the same class 100 times prior. Several times throughout the class, the instructor tried to upsell us (eg "healing crystals"), which I was not a fan of, considering what we already paid for the class. The class lasted an hour; you can select your scent, vessel, and name of the candle. We paid $250 for a couple, plus tip for the Glowness Experience, which is their more premium class. Based on the instruction we received, and the quality of the class, I think this is a bit over priced.

They…read moreoffer a wide variety of candles in different sizes, shapes, and scents, as well as candle accessories and gift items. It's the perfect place for all your candle needs, whether for personal use, gifting, or if you're planning an event. . They also host candle-making workshops. I recently attended one of their candle-making workshops as part of a team activity for work and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The instructor was easy to follow, and had a good balance between giving detailed instructions and letting us work independently. She kept the pace steady, without boring us, and was good at keeping everyone engaged. For the workshop, we made two full-sized candles (10 oz jars) and six votives (2 oz jars). All the necessary tools and equipment were provided, including aprons, gloves, and even paper and pencils for notes. There was an impressive variety of scents to choose from, as well as colored jars for the votives, which made it feel very customizable and creative. The workshop costs $90 per person, but if you book from Monday to Thursday, you get 25% off and a free DIY kit to take home. I chose the soap-making kit, which was a lovely bonus. I highly recommend checking them out!

I mean, who doesn't love when things exceed their expectations? This hands-on experience was a blast, and I got to create some amazing bath bombs from scratch with the fabulous team at Yummi Candles. Every detail was spot on: snacks? Check! Drinks? Double check! And let's talk about the genius Yelp swag--a combo snack tray and cup with a boba straw! I mean, who doesn't want to carry snacks and drinks in one hand while crafting? It's a game changer. They even thought of us bag ladies (you know who you are) by providing purse storage for those of us who showed up with oversized bags that could basically double as luggage. Seriously, I needed that extra table space for all the bath bomb magic we were creating! Now, I have to admit, we were so busy mixing and molding that we didn't snap any pictures. But no stress--Yelp had a photographer on hand to capture our fun moments. The timing was perfect, too: 3-4 PM on a Sunday in the beautiful Distillery District. It was just an hour long, leaving us plenty of time to explore the Distillery District, grab a bite and head home to mentally prepare for the workweek ahead. And let's not forget the swag bag we received at the end, packed with more Yelp goodies and a sweet 10% discount on Yummi Candles products which I used that same day. Their store doesn't just carry candles; they also have reed diffusers, incense, and other delightful fragrance-related gifts. I couldn't resist and picked up a reed diffuser! Honestly, it was the best way to spend a Sunday afternoon! I'm already eyeing their candle-making workshops as my next adventure. Can't wait to go back!

On opening day I made a special trip to Eaton Centre and got there when they opened at 10am. Not crowded which I loved. I got four men's hand creams for $4.99 each with scents called Ocean and Deep Ocean. Regular price is $18.95 so great deal! But they stopped making body lotions so am disappointed in that. Big thanks to the young man working there who gave me great, friendly customer service!

It looks like the new location will be a little bit larger in size which will be nice since the current one is a little cramped. This Bath & Body Works is set up much like the other ones that you're probably used to. There is generally a tester product that is open for you to sniff. If you have tried any lotions or soaps, they have a sink in-store for you to wash off any excess product. The summer flavours seem to be out these days as there were a lot of tropical (mango, pineapple) and vacation type scents (think beach and Ocean). They also had some fun sanitizer holders that were shaped like flamingos (complete with feathers) and one that was a sea turtle. They also have a deal right now that is $3.50 on all hand soaps and 6 pocket bacs for $10. I definitely got in on both of those deals. As always, the checkout is in the back of the store and my order was packaged neatly in their checkered blue and white paper bag.

There is metered street…read moreparking on the street in front of the store, there is also some residential parking within a reasonable walking distance. Both of those options were full, so I ended up parking in the commercial lot behind the store. It was very close to the shop. And I would recommend paying the fee, because it looks like it is patrolled regularly. They were giving tickets out when I was there. The shop has everything you would want in a souvenir shop. They had T-shirts, pajamas, magnets, toys, hats, sweatshirts, shot glasses, post cards, snacks, and a bunch a hockey and maple syrup stuff. The store is pretty well organized, the guy working was very nice and there goods are reasonably priced. I got all the gifts and souvenirs that I needed, with a bit that I didn't need. If you are in the market for some souvenirs while in Toronto, this should be one of your first stops.
