swipe through for the hills we’ll gladly die on.

Small-batch isn’t just a cute buzz word.

It means we can be picky about what leaves our studio. Every candle is tested, poured, labelled, packed & quality-checked by us because we genuinely care about the little things.

We’d rather make fewer candles really well, than pump out hundreds just for the sake of it.

So yes, you’re paying for wax and fragrance. But you’re also paying for a whole lot of time, testing, attention to detail, and two slightly sleep deprived candle makers who care way to much about your candle.

A good candle deserves a great personality.

We’ve renamed candles more times than we can count because we’ve learned firsthand just how much a name can change the way a scent is received.

Sometimes the fragrance itself stays exactly the same, but suddenly the right name makes you need to smell it, gives you an idea of what it feels like, and turns it from “that smells nice” into “I NEED THAT”

We’re firm believers that the name is part of the experience

And truthfully, coming up with them might be on of our favourite parts!

We know it can be hard to burn the pretty candle but we promise it was made to be lit.

Not admired from across the room while you “save it for a special occasion”

Light it while you’re making dinner.
Burn it during your bath.
Put it on while you’re reading, cleaning, working, or doing absolutely nothing.

Candles are meant to be enjoyed, not saved forever.
So stop waiting for the perfect moment and burn. the. candle.

You bought it for a reason. 😉

One of the things we admire so much about the small business community is how often people show up for one another.

We’ve been lucky enough to meet so many incredible makers, artists, entrepreneurs, and local businesses who have supported us, celebrated our wins, shared our posts, sent customers our way, and reminded us that we’re never really doing this alone.

There’s room for all of us at the table.

We don’t believe someone else’s success takes away from ours, and we’d much rather cheer each other on, collaborate, share what we’ve learned, and grow together than arrive at the top alone.

Fall has officially entered the chat 🍂☕️

And this year, we’re taking you straight to Stars Hollow.

Meet our brand new fall collection,
Three candles inspired by the cozy little moments we all wish we could bottle up.

☕️Luke’s Flannel - warm, woodsy & effortlessly broody
🥧More Pie, Please - pumpkin & all the fall spices
🍎The Dragonfly Kitchen - baked apple pie perfection

Were extra excited to be teaming up with a local Calgary artist Kaitlin Friesen Art | Artist to bring these little pieces of Stars Hollow to life.

Her artwork + our candles = your official invitation to curl up, light a candle, and pretend you’ve moved to Connecticut.

The fall collection official launched August 15th (pre-order now!)

Welcome to Stars Hollow besties. We saved you a spot.

We have titles. We have responsibilities. We have absolutely no idea what we’re doing. 😂

Just a little ✨wax garnish✨on literally everything we own.

Local businesses supporting local businesses will always be our fav collab

Happy? Light a candle. Sad? Light a candle.
Avoiding responsibilities? You already know.

Proof that “we should totally start a business” is sometimes a very dangerous sentence.

“It’s not clutter. It’s inventory.
There’s a difference.”

A conversation we have with Shandras brother weekly.

Buying local looks good on you, just saying 🩶

We’ve heard the rumours that markets have continued without us… but we’re choosing not to believe it. 🤷‍♀️😂

Truthfully though, we’ve missed you all so much.

We didn’t expect to miss our market chats, all the familiar faces, and the doggos that stop by our booth quite this much.

Good news though, the countdown to our return is officially on!

We’ll be back at our favourite event of the summer ; the Inglewood Night Market on August 14!

Come stock up on candles, tell us what we’ve missed, and let’s make up for a month of lost yapping. 🫶

In the meantime, give your dogs a boop for us!

And yes… we take turns 🤝

Some moments Shandra is keeping us on track while Kaitlen has mentally left the chat, other times it’s the opposite.

We call it ✨balance✨

After a busy spring of markets, we’re taking the next month off from pop-ups to recharge, create, and soak up a little summer.

While you won’t find us at any markets for a few weeks, our online shop is still open 24/7 and June’s birthday sale is still going strong!

🎂 29% OFF all candles online in celebration of Shandra turning 29.

If you’ve had your eye on a scent (or three 😉), now’s the time to stock up cause we’ll be rolling out a brand new sale next month.

If you’re not one of our newsletter besties yet, this might be your sign to join the club. 💌

Every month, you’ll receive a special discount code that’s exclusive to our email community, plus shop updates, new products & upcoming events.

See you online for now, and we’ll be back at the markets before you know it. 🤍

Evidence suggests otherwise. 💃

Which scent has you dancing like this?

All ☀️ and 🌈 around here!

Someone asked us recently how we’ve managed to run a business together without killing each other.

& the truth is we’re wildly different people😅

Shandra is the “what if this happens?” person
Kaitlen is the “we’ll figure it out” person

& while that sounds cute now there are absolutely times we drive eachother nuts.

Over the years we’ve learned that neither approach is wrong, they’re just different.

So now, when Shandra start spiralling over every possible outcome, Kaitlen gives her the space to work through it.

& when Kaitlen takes the scenic route to the finish line, Shandra breaths knowing Kaitlen always pulls through.

Kaitlen knows that when Shandra gets a little neurotic, it’s usually because she cares deeply & wants everything to go well.

& Shandra knows that when Kaitlen is taking her time to smell the flowers, that inspiration is sure to follow.

Giving eachother grace has been the biggest thing that’s helped us.

Grace on the stressful days.
Grace when we communicate poorly.
Grace when one of us needs a little more patience than usual.

Has it always been easy? Absolutely not.
Has it taken years of figuring each other out? 100%.

But that’s kinda the beauty of it.

We’ve stopped expecting eachother to think the same way & started appreciating what the other person brings to the table.

Turns out that’s been one of the best things for our business & our friendship. ☯️
