The Corner Candleshop is locally owned, operated and loved. We are a local Kansas City company that has been handcrafting unique, high quality fragranced candles for two decades. You might even say we are one of KC’s best-kept secrets.

We are located in the Heart of Brookside, just five minutes south of the Country Club Plaza in Kansas City. For two decades, owner Lori Block has been hand pouring candles on site in the back of her quaint Brookside shop and has even named a candle, Brookside Bungalow, after the beloved neighborhood.

As a specialty store, we offer a variety of pillar, taper, tea light, wax melt, votive, container candles, seasonal decor and home decor. With over 175 different scents to choose from, we are sure you will find the perfect one for your home, special occasion or gift. We have mastered candles that smell like freshly cut grass, dirt, tomato vines, baby lotion, leather, whiskey, fresh baked bread, popcorn and many, many, more. With quirky, charming names like Clean Sheet Night, Man’s Best Friend, and It’s Totally Fine you are sure to find a one-of-a-kind fragrance made with a sophisticated palate. We dare you to leave our store without discovering a new candle scent.

Candle making is an art and we take it seriously. By using the best oils, lead-free cotton wicks and clean burning soy-blended wax, and handcrafting our candles in small batches, we ensure that every product meets our high standards. We do not cut costs where oils are concerned because we want our fragrances to be as authentic as possible with no artificial undertone. We also blend several of our own scents so you will not find our exclusive candles sold by other brands or manufacturers.

The Corner Candleshop provides a special service to customers. Once they have burned through their container candles, they can return the used, clean container and our candlemakers will refill it for $2 per ounce. Or, if you have your own heirloom cup or vessel, simply bring it in and fill with your favorite Corner Candleshop scent and take home a gift completely unique that comes straight from the heart. The candles are ready for pickup in about one week and it’s a great way to reuse and recycle.
