7 buttles - a place of history, magic and a TON of candles.

Deep in the heart of the Short North District in Columbus, Ohio, a small studio reflects the essence of one man. Once, 7 Buttles Ave was just a place to be, to experiment, to paint, to enjoy life; it evolved into much more.

Paul Robinett, with a heart of abandon called reckless by some, turned this small space into an incubator for his paintings, candle making, photography and art. This special space evolved into what we know today as the Paul Robinett Aromatherapy Candle Shop.

Even though Paul continues to amass skills and passions for new things every day, his candles stand strong as a mainstay for thousands of people. And, as always, every single candle is hand-poured, one at a time. Each wick is hand-centered in the bottom of every jar to ensure an even burn, one at a time. All of the fragranced oils are measured and poured into each candle, one at a time. And of course, every candle is whispered a promise, sealed with vow and welcomed into the world, one at a time.

"This candle is personal to me. The way it looks, the way its made and what that stands for. To all of the people who buy them and burn them: thank you for understanding what that means." - Paul Robinett
