They walk you through every step & answer any questions you may have. It was very easy to reserve the workshop online & I even got some money back at the end of the workshop since we didn't pick out very big vessels (what holds your candle). I would highly recommend checking this place out, whether it's making your own candle or just buying what they have in store.

I was not prepared for everything that Essentials has to offer, but wow... they have an almost…read morelimitless number of boutique brands. The store is extremely spacious and artfully designed. Nest, Baobab, Molton Brown, Inis, Wolf, Louis Sherry, Michel Design Works, Logevy, Jack Black....and on and on. I loved that the store wasn't a collision of strong smells, but more of a delightful whiff as you passed by each display. The staff was friendly, helpful, and always busy designing and redesigning displays, so you would never enter the same store twice. How refreshing and fun! I think my favorite item was the cute and clever camera clock. However, the race for my second favorite has many contenders! Something to make me smell/feel good? Something to make my home lovely? Something to wear? Something to share? If you're looking to pamper yourself or someone else, look no further than Essentials. Anyone would be elated to receive a beautiful, luxurious gift from this fantastic boutique.

This shop has some fantastic gift ideas. They sell their Struggle Bus brand hats, tees, coffee mugs, tea towels, cards, stickers & more.

Be sure to check out their selection for your OKC + LGBTQ outfit for PRIDE. It's located on NW 30th Street a bit off the beaten path--worth the walk. They have a gigantic back patio. Seems like a great hangout spot for many years to come. Their new store opening weekend was the Paseo Arts Festival weekend (May 25-26th) 2019.

If you're the first or the last customer it shouldn't matter. We were waited on by a lady named Abbie and she seemed annoyed and not having a good day. We asked her pretty valid questions about the new Disney line and she spoke to us like we were asking questions that didn't pertain to the business. Abbie it's time to do better or find another line of work. Try not being so rude. I probably would have spent more if I didn't feel like an inconvenience.

You can almost feel the history breathing in and out of the woods, whispering the stories they have witnessed over the decades. I stopped several times in almost reverence to marvel at the craftsmen who created these works of art that have endured the test of time. Every nook and cranny is an eclectic melding of your grandma's house, a hundred museums, and the best estate sale you've ever attended. As a storyteller, I was overwhelmed by the threads of time woven in and out of every aisle of this unique store. You need to have vision when dealing with dead people's stuff. Dream about what could be, not just what you see before you, so remember to bring your credit card and your imagination. So many nameless artisans' works of art are now gathered in one place for us to explore and incorporate into our homes - making new stories for them to remember. #deadpeoplesstuff (photos by me) https://www.deadpeoplesstuffok.com/
