WHY WE MADE THIS: HANG DRY
To say that we like to collaborate would be an understatement, we LOVE it. In 2018 we met Holly Singer, founder of Milk Jar Candle Company. Milk Jar is an amazing brand that creates handcrafted, wood-wick, soy-based candles in Calgary.
Not only does Milk Jar donate $1 from every candle sold to a non-profit organization supporting children with disabilities, but customers can return their empty milk jars to be reused. We can’t say enough good things about Holly Singer and the team that makes up Milk Jar Candle Co. We like Milk Jar so much we often refer to them as our ‘sister company’.

When we met Holly back in 2018 we collaborated on our first candle, Sweater Weather, that was comprised of a scent good enough to eat - maple butter! From cozying up beside the fireplace to wrapping yourself in a blanket enjoying a good book, Sweater Weather created a maple-infused space celebrating everything about Canadian winters.
Since the success of Sweater Weather, mainly witnessed by the obsession our team took on, we figured might as well come out with a summer candle...enter, Hang Dry. Hang Dry is a ticket to your summer scent. Comprised of juicy watermelon and fresh notes of mint, this subtly sweet, yet empowering scent encompasses endless summer days, backyard cocktails and picnic lunches.
Milk Jar explains the name Hang Dry came from the nostalgia of summer linens drying the yard, giving each garment a distinct warmth and smell from the summer sun. These elements were combined in hopes of encompassing relaxation mixed with lackadaisical energy we all feel as the days [finally] get warmer.
