{the Davisburg Candle Factory in Davisburg, Michigan}
Tucked away in the small town of Davisburg is a candlefactory with a whole lot of tradition. The Davisburg Candle Factory offers
custom made, hand-decorated candles that have been made in the same factory the
same way since 1960. Tapers are
dipped in a unique automated line that is made up of old roller skate wheels,
bike chains, wheels and rims. This is my go to place when it comes to gifts. I
always have some on hand for emergency purposes, and love to give them at
Christmas. Or birthdays. Since the candles are each created by hand they all
have a unique aspect to them.
