Keep This Holiday Season Lit With a Visit to Wisdom Candles and More

There are few holiday gifts as simple and effective as a candle. Loved by moms, friends, roommates and cravers of a cozy home, it’s an impulse buy that still offers lots of room for personalization. It’s also highly useful, as some of us who remember the 2003 NYC blackout can attest! 

While you’re going through our gift guide and picking out items for Cousin Mildred, go ahead and add Wisdom Candles and More to the list. The shop recently opened at 220 Front Street and has a wide selection of candles, handmade soaps, art, florals and jewelry. Wisdom stocks a unique selection of candle types, too, including a collection celebrating the human form, from pregnant bodies to sculpted abs. 

The store also offers all sorts of activities that make great gifts on their own: kids’ events and cocktail-friendly classes, with yoga and wellness workshops coming soon.
