“I’ve never made a candle before.”

Perfect. Most people haven’t.

That’s literally why we’re here.

Pick your vessel, smell all the scents, create your blend and we’ll walk you through the rest. Our candles are made with a clean coconut soy wax blend with no paraffins, and our fragrance oils are clean, kid-friendly and pet-friendly.

Options start around $20, and the actual candle-making part takes about 30–45 minutes.

Easy plans. Cute candle. Zero crafting skills required.

Come see why we hear “I didn’t expect to love this so much” all the time.

Not when everyone's schedules are impossible.

Not when the good dates are gone.

Romney Brown hosts office parties, family gatherings, friend groups and holiday celebrations — and we now offer OFFSITE candle making too, which means we can bring the experience to you.

If you're responsible for planning this year's work party, congratulations. You just found something people will actually want to attend.

Need something to do that isn’t dinner, drinks or sitting at home again?

Come make a candle in Grayslake!

Our candle making experience takes about 30–45 minutes, you get to create your own scent, and beginners are VERY welcome.

Then your candle cures for about 2 hours — stay and hang out, play games, grab a drink, shop around town or make a whole day of it.

Walk-ins are welcome first come, first served, but busy days can fill up. Come earlier or plan ahead if you have a group!

Your candle said, “I could be cuter.”

We listened. 🌸

Our flower toppers are just $2 each and might be the easiest little upgrade ever.

Pick your favorites, add them to your candle and suddenly your custom creation is almost too pretty to burn. Almost.

There’s no experience required here, either — we’ll walk you through the whole candle making process so you can focus on choosing scents and making yours completely YOU.

Next time you pour with us, don’t forget the flowers.

Your coworkers have seen enough conference rooms.

Take the group somewhere FUN after work.

Come pour candles, grab drinks, laugh about everything that definitely wasn’t in the meeting agenda, and actually spend time together outside the office.

And with Happy Hour from 2–7PM, weekday afternoons and evenings are basically begging to become your next team outing.

Planning ahead for holiday parties? Even better. Book your group now — or ask us about bringing our offsite candle making experience directly to YOU.

For the person who somehow brings their zodiac sign into EVERY conversation… we found their gift. 😂

Our Zodiac Gift Boxes are only $20 and packed with fun little surprises, including a candle, stickers, a scent astrology card and more.

It’s cute, personal, easy to gift and way more interesting than grabbing another generic gift card.

Birthday coming up? Host gift? Just-because surprise? Or maybe you’re a Leo buying yourself a present because… obviously.

Stop in and find their sign!

Don’t you… forget about this one. 😉

THE BREAKFAST CLUB Movie Night is coming August 22nd!

Make a candle, settle in for a classic, and spend the night doing something a little more fun than scrolling through streaming apps for 45 minutes trying to decide what to watch.

Bring a date, your friends, your family, or whoever appreciates a good throwback movie night.

Our movie nights are some of our most popular events and spots are limited — so this is your sign to get those tickets BEFORE the “sold out” post.

August 22nd. Be there.

Happy Hour at Romney Brown runs from 2–7PM, and we’ve got a little something happening Tuesday through Thursday:

Tuesday: $5 candle refills
Wednesday: $10 DIY wax melts
Thursday: 10% off wine by the glass OR bottle

Come after work, bring a friend, make it a date, bring the kids, or come by yourself and enjoy having absolutely nobody else's opinion on your scent blend.

Weekdays deserve plans too.

Candle making + cannolis = the Friday night plan you didn’t know you needed.

Candles & Cannolis is back Friday, September 4th!
