This little shop was a delightful find for us. You can find one-of-a-kind jewelry, glassware, paper light shades etc. The more we looked, the more we discovered. Along with her considerable talent, the artist must have a good sense of humor and is a champion of 'upcycling' It's a light, happy, unpretentious place. We hope Tillett Gardens gets its restaurant... More

We love searching out unique items to take home with us while travelling. Water Candy has many wonderful things to choose from. We even called to order more from Barbara after returning home. We were a bit disappointed in Tillet Gardens, expecting to see more shops open, but Water Candy made the visit there well worth it. More

Sadly, St. Thomas does not recycle glass bottles. Happily, Water Candy does. Wonderful bottles of various shapes and shades have been cut and sanded to create lovely treasures like etched glasses, candle holders, wind chimes, jewelry, and magnificant lamps. Also lovely are the intricate hand cut paper lanterns. The artist creates and sells these treasures in her little studio at... More

For some reason, my initial reveiw of this shop didnt post here. At any rate, one of the coolest shops in st. thomas. The artist is relentlessly inventive with her glass work, adorned bottles, jewelry, and super cool paper art lamps. The shop is bursting with creativity and style. A refreshingly laid back browsing experience. More

Shopping at Water Candy, found in Tillet Gardens, is worth the venture in finding on St. Thomas. This is a unique art studio where the owner, Barbara, actually makes the items there to share her love of the island. This is the shop to find wonderful, one of a kind gifts and decorating surprises. We found ourselves wondering who else... More
