About Us

Design Finds is a home goods store located at 8292 Middle Essex Cove in Memphis, Tennessee, United States. Since 1995, DFI Designs has been specializing in creating beautiful keepsake hurricane candles using flowers from special events or personal gardens. These candles can be lit, but they will not burn away, making them perfect heirloom pieces to cherish for years to come.
Their mission is to capture special memories in these unique candles for families and friends to enjoy. They offer two versions of their candles: a fuel cell version with a replaceable fuel cell, and an electric version that includes a custom wooden base, cord, and bulb. They also provide non-electric custom wooden bases for the fuel cell version in all sizes.
Design Finds accepts flowers from weddings, funerals, anniversaries, or any memorable occasion to create personalized candles. Customers can drop off their flowers, which will be dried and arranged into candles of their choice. The turnaround time is typically 4-5 weeks to allow the flowers to dry properly.
To drop off flowers, customers need to notify Design Finds beforehand, include a completed order form, and clip the flower heads from their stems (leaving 1/2" - 1" of stem on each). Vases or containers should not be left in the DropBox.
For more information or to schedule a drop-off, customers can contact Design Finds via email at [email protected] or by phone at 901-309-3777. Design Finds is open on Tuesdays from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM.

"I’ve used DFI off and on for 15 years. I was always happy with the candles I have had made but this last time was very unpleasant. I ordered 5 candles to me made from my mother in-law’s funeral. I called them three times before I was able to reach someone to place my order. I then paid my deposit. Weeks later I noticed a second payment on my charge. They never called me or emailed me that my order was ready. I was finally able to get them to respond to an email to confirm my order was ready. I gave them at time and date that I would like to pick up my order, again no response. I called their phone and left a message for when I would be by there to pick up my candles. Their phone message states they open at 8:00 but again they don’t answer their phone or return emails. Finally someone pulled up in the driveway and gave me my order after I sat in the driveway 45 minutes. Bottom line their don’t answer their phone, their don’t return calls, they don’t answer their door and if your lucky they might return your emails. They not customer friendly and not very business like. It’s unfortunate because they have very nice products."
"Absolutely perfect. 100% worth it. Very friendly and professional. The time it took to have the candles made was faster than I expected."
"I've had the honor of doing business with Donna in the past and have enjoyed the candle lamp she made for me. Today I dropped off my daughter in laws bouquet and I'm sure it will be just as beautiful when completed."
"Donna.. Wanted to tell you how very pleased we were with our candles... More beautiful than I could have ever imagined and show you my girls... I waited on them so we could all be together and when we opened them... Thank you... Everyone that has seen this post on Facebook loves them... We will definitely recommend you to anyone who asks..

"We sent flowers from my mother-in-law’s funeral for candles in January 2014 For various reasons we put them away. Fast forward to June 2019 and we found them in a closet. They were in perfect condition and smelled wonderful. However, after the passage of time and the loss of other immediate family members, I couldn’t remember whose funeral they were from. Fortunately there was a sticker on the bottom of the candles so I looked up the website and reached out to see if they had records back that far. The very next morning I received the good news that Donna had found the records. Thank you, not only for the lovely candles, but for going above and beyond to help us. The candles are beautiful and I highly recommend using Design Finds. We are located in the Tulsa Oklahoma area and couldn’t find anything close to this special to preserve the memories."
