This is a small store off of Richmond Highway. It has a little bit of everything. From candles and…read moreincense to spiritual statues and Florida water. When I first walked in I wasn't too sure of the place. I think the pictures I saw online made me think the store was bigger and many "intimate" or small spiritual stores can seem unfriendly and standoffish sometimes. Usually they have to warm up to strangers, but the man working there was very friendly. He let me know he was there if I needed anything then let me browse without hovering. The prices seemed fair. Oh, did I mention they also do readings? I don't let just anyone read me so I'd have to go a few more times and get to know the owner (she does the readings) before I take advantage of that offer. Overall I really like the store and plan to go back!

There's a table at the front with various scent samples and a wheel with different fragrance notes to help you decide what scents you might like.

The walls are filled with photos of beautiful black women, and the shelves are stocked with black woman owned products like Black Girl Sunscreen, Black Girl Vitamins, and perfumes like Ce Noir and Brown Girl Jane. It was honestly so inspiring to see all the beautiful and amazing products. I purchased a hair and body mist in Honeymoon, which is a blend of coconut and oud. It smells DIVINE!!

She walked us through the process of blending scents, why these candles and oils are health conscious, and pouring our own custom candles. The space itself is bright and inviting, with shelves full of gorgeous candles and décor--it feels like a boutique and creative studio rolled into one. Perfect for a group activity, date night, or even something fun to do on your own. They have multiple items at different price point if you just want to shop!! What really stood out: * Variety of curated scents to choose from (so many amazing combinations!) * Guided experience that's beginner-friendly but still creative * Black-owned business rooted in community and craftsmanship * You leave with a candle that feels personal and luxe and is healthy to burn. Highly recommend booking a session here if you're in the area. I'll definitely be back so worth it!!!

Halloween evening I planned a romantic date night with my SO at National Harbor in Maryland…read more While waiting for their arrival, I walked through the retail district, familiarizing myself with the types of shops, and their offerings. A subtle hint had been dropped before that a couple's event, like painting and wine tasting, was of interest. There was a shop offering that experience, along with one that appeared to pair photography with alcohol?!? After further investigation however, I found 'the one's, Wigenton Candle Co. The experience they offered was much more intimate; creating a candle together. Said candle, would of course be used in the future, and each time memories of its creation would come flooding back. I ducked into the shop for an overview and spoke to the owner, Stephanie. After confirming that it was ideal, I made a reservation for a bit later that evening. Come 7:00, my SO and I arrived for our candle-making session. Being Halloween, most people were interested in far different activities, thus we were the only partipants. Stephanie explained the process to us, then had us sit at a crafting station, which had the ingredients we'd need laid out already. Stephanie provided a thorough explanation of each potential fragrance, including its benefits, and popular fragrance combinations. After testing different fragrances, and combinations, we now had all the ingredients necessary to make 'OUR' candle. Stephanie led us through the process of assembling the candle, and explained that it would need to cook for a number of hours before it could be moved. She also recommended that it not be burned for at least 3 days. As we wrapped up, Stephanie shared candle burning tips including making them last, their optimum placement within a room, etc. I asked what the inspiration was for the store. Come to find out Stephanie suffered the ill-effects that many so when burning commercially manufactured candles. They often include harmful ingredients which can negatively effect one's health (short and long-term), and exacerbate asthmatic symptoms. Needless to say, the candles you make in the store, as well as the pre-made candles and other items, such as diffuser oils, contain none of the 'bad stuff'. As we made our way out the door we learned that it's possible to bring one's own food and drink to a couple's session, adding another layer of intimacy. The reaction to the experience from both me and my SO was outstanding. It blew away all the other couple experience options available at the National Harbor, and left us both looking forward to the day (more likely night) that we would first light 'OUR' candle. We can't recommend Wigenton Candle, and Stephanie highly enough. Get there!!! 'Uncle Mike'

I visited all three shops to find just the right fit. I found it. This shop is BIG. You don't feel crowded and claustrophobic when you are searching for fabrics. There a large windows so the lighting is perfect for seeing true colors. I have always been greeted when I walk through the door. There are a lot of employees but I didn't feel pressured or rushed to make a selection. On the contrary, as I was auditioning a couple of options I had multiple employees walk over and give my choices a "look" and they offered their opinions, which I found helpful. Amy is a COMPLETE GEM. Her classes are so worthd taking. The other huge plus is that she has an educational YouTube page where she posts many videos to continue your education from the shop to your home. How many times have I had a great experience in a class somewhere else, only to get home and forget a key step when I try to make the project? That isn't an issue with Amy's classes. She has so many videos to help refresh your memory. I will be back again, and again, and again. d
