Our Story

The Spark

CandleBouquet.com was sparked by the idea and desire to create truly unique gifts which express gratitude for the people in our lives. Taking the time to say a few important words that often go unspoken, such as 'I'm sorry,' 'I love you,' and 'I'm thinking about you' can make such a difference. You'll find we have special art from the heart bouquets perfect for every occasion from birthdays to new home blessings to friendship and more.

The Light

CandleBouquet.com is an extension of Pure Light in Laguna Beach and Irvine, our create-your-own candle studio, retail boutique and gathering space. We opened Pure Light there three years ago after the very sad loss of our son Tyeson. The space was created to honor his artistic, loving spirit and help bring people together. CandleBouquet.com takes that essence of creativity, peace, kindness and the art of candlemaking one step further with these heartfelt, life-embracing arrangements. Send Light to someone you love and care for with a Candle Bouquet. We hope they'll bring light and love to you.

The Promise

From the tragic loss of our son's death came the unexpected bright light of our beautiful grandbaby, Tyeson Lhyric Collester, who sadly would never come to know his father. A new foundation, The Lhyric Foundation, was also born that we created to help artists take back their lives before addiction takes over. Tyeson died at the young age of just 25 after a naive temptation with drugs and alcohol turned into an addiction from which he couldn't escape. He was a creative, charasmatic spirit that squeezed every drop out of life, but his fearless spirit led him in the wrong direction. The Lhyric Foundation hopes to refocus artist's energies in a natural setting with positive encouragement. We'll provide more information about the Lhyric Foundation soon.

Thank you very much for visiting and blessings to you.
