From cozy evenings at home to thoughtful gifts that last, Candles R Us brings you hand-poured candles and home fragrances made with care — right here in Detroit.
Candles R Us started as a passion project — a love for beautiful scents and warm, glowing spaces. What began as small batches in a home kitchen has grown into a beloved Detroit destination where every candle tells a story.
Located on Gratiot Avenue, we've become a neighborhood staple for candle lovers, gift shoppers, and anyone who believes a great scent can transform a room. Our collection grows with the seasons, and we're always experimenting with new blends you won't find anywhere else.
Whether you're looking for something bold and warming or light and refreshing, we've got a candle waiting for you.
A soothing blend of French lavender and creamy vanilla — perfect for unwinding after a long day.
