I went in by myself as I was dying of curiosity, and there was a large party and a couple of small groups. I selected my scents - and selected too many, so got some help winnowing down. One of the staff walked me through the candle making process and they even give you fun glitter to put in it, so it looks like a little glitter mountain is burning! The essential oil scents are widely varied and they don't just have candles- you can make anything from dryer balls to body spray. I had an extra candle made for a friend, and they will keep my scent combo for a time, so I can always return to have more made! You've got to go back in to pick up the candle the following day, but it is worth it.

I had been to a similar type store before but I liked Sea Love so much better. What I loved the most was that there was a wall of hundreds of scents and you pick 3 to create your own blend. I like musky/smoky scents and my fiancé prefers light, clean scents so we were able to create our own unique blends. There were about a dozen or so "vessels" (jars) to choose from with the prices ranging $35-$50 depending on the size and material. The worker when we went, Giovanna, was friendly and knowledgeable and made our experience a ton of fun. This is perfect for a date, a girls day, or even something fun to do with a group.

Who does not love a great candle? The way it makes the room smell. And the fact that you make it. Making that candle together puts your hopes and dreams into something you can use. When it burns you can feel the warmth you both created together. Their energy of this candle making studio and space is full of love. They not only offer candle making but other types of candles premade to take home just whenever a special occasion comes around . Do you have a special scent that you would love? Find something new that's prepared here on the premises for your everyday wearing. You can purchase a discovery set too. This store is a great place for a quick fun date night or girls day. Whatever works for your needs. It's best to schedule online. Whatever value you place on this process is on a priority basis. We had a lot of fun. For the candle lover most importantly. The value is reasonable to other candle making companies. The service of the process is way above what is required. The customer service is very generous. Now we have a scent to cuddle by together.

Surprise Lily Boutique: Where Self-Control Ceases to Exist…read more You ever walk into a boutique just to "look around" and suddenly you're handing over your card like it's Monopoly money?? Yeah, that's Surprise Lily Boutique. The selection?? Too good. Every rack is filled with cute, stylish, and wearable pieces--the kind that make you say, "Oh, this? Just something effortless I threw on" (but secretly, you know you look amazing). Whether you need a casual slay, an effortless day-to-night moment, or a statement piece that makes your ex rethink their life choices--this boutique has THE outfit. And the vibe?? A+ all around. The shop is beautifully curated, welcoming, and the kind of place where you actually enjoy shopping--not just running in and out. The best part? The owner. The sweetest, most helpful human who makes you feel like you're shopping with your most fashionable bestie. No pushy sales energy--just great recommendations, good vibes, and the occasional you NEED this moment (which, spoiler: she's always right). Final thoughts: If you haven't been to Surprise Lily Boutique yet, I have questions. Like, why are you depriving yourself of this experience?! Go now, buy the thing, and prepare to be obsessed. Your closet will thank you.

Mahonia Studio: My Plant's Real Parent…read more Let's be honest--I am not the plant parent my leafy children deserve. I try, I really do, but sometimes they tip over, take a tumble, or just look at me like, "Why did you choose this life for me?" Enter Mahonia Studio, the plant hospital / plant therapist / plant whisperer I never knew I needed. They have saved multiple of my plants from what can only be described as near-death experiences caused entirely by my own clumsiness. (Seriously, if my plants could talk, they'd be calling Mahonia for custody arrangements.) Beyond their life-saving skills, the shop itself?? Absolute paradise. It's like stepping into a lush, magical greenhouse where every plant is thriving (unlike the ones at my house before Mahonia intervened). Their selection is chefs kiss--from easy-to-care-for plants to "You better know what you're doing" statement pieces--plus all the cute pots and accessories to make me look like a responsible plant parent. And the staff?? Literal angels. Not only do they help me pick plants that fit my chaotic lifestyle, but they also give the best care advice, zero judgment included. Just good vibes, good plants, and people who actually want your leafy friends to live their best life. Final thoughts: Mahonia Studio isn't just a plant shop--it's a plant rescue mission. If you're clumsy, clueless, or just obsessed with greenery, this is the place.

Your cost is based on the size of the jar ($25-40). Half the fun is picking out your scents. They have several to smell and you can choose up to 3. The smell becomes more unique as you mix the scents and stir them periodically to smell the final combination. I also love naming your candle and a sticker is placed on the jar to display it. The couple running the store is hard working, patient and friendly with the crowds. The shop smells so good. Make a day of candle making - because it takes over an hour for the candle to set, you've got time for lunch or coffee nearby plus a bit of shopping. Great for all ages. Snag a gift card to give an experience. Easy street parking. Walk ins welcome. Pre-made candles, room mists and body sprays are ready for purchase.

We had excellent service and , we learned a lot about what goes into candle making and the ingredients. The wax is soy and all of their scents are safe for pets, which is a biggie for me and my menagerie. I can't wait to brighten my guest room with my very first personally handcrafted candle. I hope my guests enjoy it as much as I enjoyed creating it.

The storefront is small making social distancing an issue. The staff are properly masked as were the shoppers. Curbside pick up is offered and recommended for at risk groups due to the small shop size. Now onto the offerings. Rightly so, the store windows and shelves are full of colorful images. It almost looks like an old-fashioned candy shop. They do have some candies available but the emphasis is more on pampering your bodies with bath salts, bombs and soaps. Very clever and enticing options that look like donuts, geodes and milkshakes. In this time of stress all of us could benefit from or gift a blissful experience for the body and soul. I even found some more masculine 'flavors' for my husband. Chocolate Shower Truffles anyone? (No calories!). Another lovely thing to note is that this store is owned by a young teen who took a tragic loss journey to a healing place and is now sharing it with us. And it is obvious she has a family actively supporting her. Grandmother demonstrated her favorite product for us. Besides Kayla Marie's own crafted products, she offers some other favorite from small companies. This shop is near Douglass Loop with the typical parking difficulties for that area.
