You'd never know something like this sits out off Church St. It's a hidden gem for unique gifts, native to our area. The epitome of supporting local. Ample parking in the back, family owned, and the service is always friendly. Love this place! It's worth a drive.

There are so many unique local things you can purchase here. They had candy and coasters and T-shirts, and all sorts of goodies! It was very nostalgic and reminds me of Mast general store. You can also get a customized coffee drink while you're there! Definitely worth a visit. They even have a cute little patio area outside where you can sit and drink your drink.

If you are looking for something fun to do in Greensboro, try candle making at Strike and Flame. I…read moretook my mother to the Peach Please event, which included peach bellini frozen cocktails. The store is beautiful with a photo wall in the back. The selection of fragrances is massive although there are not many vessel options available. There are various upgrades available. I got the charcuterie box and lids for our candle jars. A guide helps you through picking out and making your own fragrance to making your actual candle. It takes about two hours to set up and then you can come pick up your candle. Centrally located on Lawndale Ave. Great spot for the girls or just date night. The staff are friendly although they are busy. Hopefully you'll love your created fragrance and take home an adorable candle. Great value for the experience.

Candle scents and candle holder variety was pretty good and makes it hard to pick and narrow to a top 3 to use for your candle. Prices are ok but I would have loved a selection of the black candle holder used for the candles they offer for sale. Service was hit or miss as I felt very rushed as the staff member interrupted our conversation to keep us moving along but yet seemed unsure about the instructions being provided. I probably won't visit again.

Absolutely loved the vibe of this little Greensboro Greenhouse. Yes, there are plants galore in a…read morevariety of sizes and genera, not to mention the pots. But does it stop there? Not a chance. Fill your homely heart with accessories for the desk and gifts for any friend. There is a giant wall of stickers spanning a range of subjects, but generally seeming to lean towards feminism and other more liberal themes. The selection of journals was what caught my eye the most of all. Don't forget the assortment of books, gift cards, and postcards. For the one-half greenhouse, it's another half paperie/stationery shop. For me, the prices were on the high side. That wouldn't stop me, of course, from snagging a journal and a pen in the future, though. It just so happens that, as an avid journaler, I already have a stack of blank journals patiently waiting their turn. The owners were friendly and even had a little dog roaming around happily going about its day. The plants were an inspiration, and now I want to propagate my own pothos into tiny little self-painted and designed pots rescued from the thrift store!

I didn't know, but another employee told me about the travel sizes being $2.95. I had a ball shopping in there. I spent $42 on a lot of spray lol.

So, I wanted to include both online and in-store experience in this review to give a broader perspective. Ordering online with B&BW is both easy and convenient on the app with bonus occasional free shipping codes and/or even special limited time free gifts sometimes offered as a treat to customers on their email mailing list, all in addition to a wonderful rewards program that allows you to earn points towards a free item of up to $16 in value on your next purchase. Shipping is pretty fast, generally shipping out in a few days after your purchase is confirmed and typically arrives in about 5-7 business days with a convenient tracking number sent to your email address so that you'll know when to be expecting your order's delivery. Ordering online is also stress free because B&BW stands behind their customers with a 100% satisfaction guarantee on their products. So, should you order a new 3-wick candle and the scent not throw like you wanted or the scent not be the most pleasant, you can return the item, even if used, via mail or in-store for a full refund of the purchase price or exchange it for a new product that you would love to try instead. B&BW is very customer friendly and highly driven to provide ultimate satisfaction. In my experience, the in-store employees at this particular location are very patient and love assisting customers in finding their first or new all-time favorite scent and have testers galore for you to try before you buy, including hand soaps with a clean sink for testing out hand washing. Everything is organized well, displayed in high light, and every product is designed to be pleasing to the eye and beautifully packaged. I highly recommend their foaming hand soaps, wallflowers, candles, and ultra-moisturizing body creams. Their foaming hand soaps are my absolute favorite and a must have! I keep these in stock at every sink in my home and change out the scents with the seasons. These soaps have me so spoiled because they are the most gentle on skin, feel so soft when lathered, and send an addictive wonderful scent into the air to lift your spirit as you cleanse. I cannot get enough! These days, hand hygiene is very important in avoiding illness, so if you're going to be washing your hands often, you may as well enjoy it! The wallflower plug-ins and candles come in a close second and never fail to make my home smell so cozy and inviting. I get so many compliments on how good it smells when company comes over, unexpected for a lady with three cats! I prefer to burn my candles with a warmer because it's safer with my animals, but it still delivers as expected. What's so amazing about them is that there are so many scents to choose from, with different scents rotating with the seasons, it's sometimes hard to choose just one! Then, when you do finally find your favorite, you truly dread running out. Everything I've tried so far has exceeded my expectations and keeps me coming back for more. If there was ever something that did slightly disappoint, the return process was so simple, easy and with no questions asked. The items at regular price are a little expensive in my opinion; however, there are often sales offered throughout the year like with body care items, the best deal is buy 3, get 3 free. If you register online for their "physical mailing list," you could also potentially receive bonus coupons in your mailbox, including coupons for one free item. Plus, twice a year, usually in June and December, you can stock up on all your favorites during their Semi-Annual Sale when select items are 50-75% off! Of course the best part is saving a little extra cash! Ladies be generous and don't forget the men in your life, because they have a men's line of products too! Once you get started, it's impossible to compare these luxury items to your typical drug store and Wal-Mart brands. No worries though, you'll be so glad that you did!
