The Sedona Center is a paid advertiser of Sonoran Living.

The Sedona Center, located in the heart of Uptown Sedona, is a one-stop-shop for a trip to Sedona. A 90-minute drive from Phoenix and Scottsdale, with four restaurants and 39 shops, the Sedona Center allows visitors an itinerary that can include sight-seeing, shopping in unique boutiques, and delicious food for dining in a charming atmosphere.

Set in a stunning location, the Sedona Center allows visitors to experience the pleasant weather (270+ days of sunshine!) with open air corridors and seating to enjoy the scenery. One of the favorite shops is Sedona Candle Magic, with doors open from floor to ceiling, inviting guests to experience their artistic creations. The flagship store is located on the North side of the plaza featuring a wealth of available candle styles, as well as their Activity Station, where kids of all ages can dip their own brightly colored candles. A second location is also open daily, inside of Canyon Breeze, showcasing many of the more complex and intricate candle designs.

The Sedona Candle Magic company was founded upon the notion of "Building Community Through the Art of Gift Giving." The founder and artists alike believe that while their candles make unique items for display, they also make fantastic, one-of-a-kind gifts that people can give to friends and family.

Each candle is 100% pure paraffin wax and hand carved by a local artisan. The artisan dips a paraffin cores into dyed layers of paraffin wax. The cores are dipped in special sequences to ensure a bright, impeccable glow effect. The artists, trained in candle specific color theory, utilize translucent shades and a variety of dipping techniques create color gradients, rainbow spectrum's, and color changes--all with simple wax. After building up the layers of hot wax, the candle is immediately carved before losing essential temperate pliability. It is not possible to reheat the layers, and depending on the size of the candle, the artist will have anywhere from 5-15 minutes to cut and sculpt the entire design.

The Sedona Candle Magic special connection with Sedona also means that the candles are more than just souvenirs of your visit. Souvenir, in French and Latin, refers to memory, or to "recur to the mind." Thus the Sedona Candle Magic team feels the same way about their candles. When you find the perfect candle, their hope is that you will take it home as a good reminder of your visit to Sedona, and as a keepsake with a real emotional attachment to it.
