Reviews for DIY Candle Making Experience by Relume

Had the most cutest time at Relume today. Took my girls to this cute little shop for some charm bracelet making- and since the moment we entered we were greeted and helped by Madison (I believe that’s her name! I’m sorry if I remembered wrongly) She was the most helpful, sweetest person who helped us every step of the way. She answered all our questions and was clear about everything! Checkout was a breeze and I appreciated her kind personality. People like her make going out less anxious for those of us who struggle with anxiety greatly. I am grateful for her sweet demeanor since we arrived. We will definitely be back soon! Absolutely loved every moment spent with my girls there making core memories and my girls truly enjoyed the store as much as I did!

Such a sweet local spot. I’ve been lots of times — to make charm bracelets with friends, to buy fun treats and gifts, to take a class on making suncatchers. Today, I went there because they were offering free watercolor painting and beading sessions in light of the election. I first learned about Relume when they donated quilts to the mutual aid group I do supply distribution for — the quilts went to residents in a local tent encampment. I’ve always had a lovely experience at Relume.

I booked a candle making session for my bachelorette party. They accommodated 9 people, booking was easy, Liv was very responsive and communicative. She walked me through all the craft workshop options with great detail. The table was set with some beautiful flowers, we all appreciated that attention to detail! She lead a wonderful event and the shop was just so cute to sit in and explore while our candles set!

Had such a great time at this craft cafe! My sister brought me here to make charm bracelets and it was a great experience. The girl running everything by herself in the morning was prepped, knew what she was talking about and very nice. It was $25 to reserve the ticket and that money goes towards the chain and charms. Additional charms cost extra, but theres enough variety where you wouldn't have to pay too much more. I would definitely recommend coming on time or a little earlier to get a good seat at the tables if you are planning to go at a busier weekend time. The place is small and has tables with chairs and if you have a big group you might need to split up or squeeze in. You will be sharing tables with someone otherwise (which was fine for us)! I do wish the gold chain selections were better, I made a charm bracelet and the chain feels a little weak/cheap, but so far it's held up.

Such a cute store, with so many reasonably priced workshops!! Went there for the opening of their Charm Bar to make a charm necklace and it was so much fun ☺️ Definitely recommend! Paid a little extra to make a charm bracelet since there were sooo many cute charms

Super cute shop with lots of Knick knacks, candles, jewelry, and presents! My friends and I visited for the charm bar event that happened on the weekend and all made charm bracelets out of the many different choices they had for us. The class was $25, though you need to pay for any additional charms that go over the charm budget. The instructions from staff were easy to follow and making the bracelets were easy and engaging and it was the perfect girls day craft to do with my friends! I’d love to come back again to try out the other craft classes they have or pick up some stickers in the future!

What a neighborhood gem!!! Cute store with great dyi activities like charm bracelet making and candle classes. The staff was super friendly. Great place for unique gifts.

I follow Relume on Instagram and I’ve been wanting to try the craft cafe for a long time! Went here with a friend and made charm necklaces. The staff gave clear instructions on the activity and were very nice. I thought it was a great price with a wide selection compared to other charm bars in DC. The shop had a lot of cute products too!

Ummmm this place is SO CUTE! Such a cute shop with unique gifts and great service. There’s a DIY jewelry making area (make an appointment). There’s cute “blind date books” by genre. Fun stickers and trinkets. Love this spot! Definitely pricey, but worth it!

My daughter has been talking about this place for some time now. We did the bracelet/necklace charms. Was so much fun. Had a great time. The young lady was so helpful even with a full shop. Will definitely be back.
