Turning 30 does not have to be a horrible experience though. Celebrating this monumentous milestone deserves some attention! As I bid Bon voyage to my 20's, I wanted to ring in my next decade with a party I would never forget... A celebration with experiences that would last a lifetime. As with any other occasion I plan, I took to google scrolling through the search results looking for unique and creative ways to amplify my birthday while keeping it cost effective for my guests lead me to the Cleveland Candle Company. I guess stumbled upon it is a better description though. Cleveland Candle Company offers 1 and 2 hour long private parties. You and your guests can express your creativity through the process of making handmade candles. I gathered 15 of my closest friends to celebrate this special day. The first half hour putting our noses to the test while sniffing our way through to 200+ scents the Cleveland Candle Company has to offer. With a wide verity of scents ranging from fruity and savory foods, plant, spa, floral, seasonal, and specially scents it can be difficult to narrow down your selection to your top 3. If you are experiencing a sensory overload, you can shop their amazing selection of pre-made soy candles, handcrafted bath bombs, oil infused lip balms and vegan soaps. While waiting for our signature candles to dry we were surrounded by the friendly and helpful staff their pleasant and uplifting attitudes added to the enjoyment of waiting for our creations. For the next hour we laughed and mingled while enjoying great food. I found creating your own craft to take home much more memorable than your typical "Dirty Thirty". Next time you throw a bash remember the Cleveland Candle Company is a clever, cost cutting idea for all ages and occasions. Sincerelybs.com

Awesome experience…read more We were greeted warmly. My guest had never been inside so we were given a tour and one on one attention. We were told about the process to create a signature scent. We were invited to have an event here or just hang out at the bar. It smells great in there and was not too overwhelming. We smelled several candles and walked around. I purchased a pre-made candle.

It's pretty much brand new, though you may have met them at a Farmer's market in the recent past. They are still growing into the space, and I can't wait to see what they do. They offer colored and natural beeswax candles, and the wall display of colored candles is just beautiful, with varying tints and hues of the same color climbing the wall. It's very pleasing! The owner is super friendly and knowledgeable - I learned a lot about fresh honeycomb and the harvest process while chatting today. I picked up a box of beeswax tea lights, which are my favorite to burn in a salt block holder while I work - so relaxing. And you can laugh, but my dog loves beeswax candles too, and will sit and watch them. I will for sure be back - I have my eye on the deep red and also a pair of earrings!

The decor style leans towards farmhouse chic, which is not my style, but I can still appreciate the huge amount of effort in this shop. The store is meticulous. If the decor is your taste, you could easily outfit multiple rooms and do some serious damage! With everything from artwork to kitchen wares, you could easily find some treasures. If you're waiting on a pick-up order for food from Woodstock, this is a great choice to browse. Something I found unique is that in the back of the store you can find them cultivating small plants and sunning air plants. That was such a fun surprise, so make sure you adventure to the very back of the store! The associates are really helpful and the candles smell great. Most of them are in mason jars, keeping in line with the theme. Swan Creek is a lovely place to shop for a gift and an indisputable mood booster!
