One of the most popular merchants of Olde Town Arvada is the candlestick maker's shop, Nature's Gift Candleworks and Studio
The sign in front of the store says, "Come in for the smell of it." And the 'smell of it' is quite a treat!
The candles are hand-poured on site, with custom scents and combinations of flowers and herbs peeking through the wax. They will burn down the middle, so the herbs and flowers remain intact. Once it's burned down, you can place a tea light in the hollow, and continue to enjoy the beauty of the botanicals.
I really like these candles better than others because the scents are neither overpowering or too sweet. They offer candles in glass containers with lids, and I overheard another loyal customer saying how much she loved those. She said she'd had one for almost a year, that still gave off its wonderful scent.
The store is in a historical building that dates to the late 1800s, that had a past life as a printers shop. If you have a couple of hours to 
spare, stroll around Olde Town Arvada - you'll find a new love too!

Arvada is a historic town about midway between Denver and Boulder in Jefferson County, Colorado. There are many different neighborhood styles and homes prices, all served by well-loved schools. Call me to talk about the kind of neighborhood you dream of living in.

I write posts on real estate issues and local events in the Denver metro area, especially those communities between Denver and Boulder, as a public service. My hope is to give people an idea of the ‘flavor’ of our community, in case they’re new or moving to the Denver area.
I am a residential real estate agent, happily helping folks buy a house or sell a house in the beautiful and friendly suburbs northwest of Denver.
