Came here on a Sunday evening with a friend. We just happened to drive by and we were so excited to…read moredo something crafty. The employee working was super nice and helpful. They have so many jar options to choose from and different price options. Loved all the scents they had available to choose. I think the only basic they didn't have was plain vanilla. They had other options but it was mixed with something else. All the other scent options great! The $5 add on for sea shells or stones for the top of your candle is a fun edition! We were able to add these half hour after making the candle. So there is a bit of a wait to let the candle settle after making it but we just walked around a bit and still were able to take out candles home same day. There is a two day wait after making it until you can use it. It's totally worth it. So much fun!

My friend and I randomly stumbled upon this place while wandering around Carlsbad Village and…read morehonestly it was such a vibe! Super fun and lowkey therapeutic which was exactly what we needed. The staff were awesome, super friendly, and walked us through everything step by step. We got to pick our own vessels and scents which was honestly the best part. I mixed mango coconut and pineapple together and it smelled so good! We threw some glitter into the soy wax mix because obviously we had to and we even got to design our own labels which turned out so cute. The candle needed an hour to cool so we went off and explored the area and then came back to top them off with some stones. They turned out so pretty omg! The price was worth it! Oh and since I was giving mine as a gift one of the staff members tied a little ribbon on my bag without me even asking which was such a sweet touch. If you're looking for something fun and a little different to do you have to check this place out!!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

This is my third time here and I guess third is a charm. I recently visited here, and I have to…read moresay, I was blown away by the variety of crystals they offer. From the moment you walked in, I was surrounded by a beautiful selection of raw stones, polished gems, and unique pieces for any type of energy work or personal collection. What really stood out to me were the stunning amethyst pieces - both the cathedral formations and the winged amethyst clusters. The wings amethysts were absolutely mesmerizing, with their intricate shapes and deep purple hues, while the winged ones felt like a work of art. I couldn't help but admire them for a while! The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable, offering insights into the healing properties of the crystals without being pushy. I ended up picking up a few pieces that I'm absolutely in love with and will definitely be back for more. If you're into crystals or just curious about them, I highly recommend checking out this shop. It's a peaceful, welcoming place with so much to explore, and I can't wait for my next visit! They got Amethyst mirror geode as well :)

Juli uses her vast network of suppliers and passes along her discount pricing to her clients. We interviewed several interior designers before meeting and selecting Juli, and we highly recommend her for your interior design needs!!!
