Our Story
Inspired by the Moments
That Stay With Us.
Hi, I’m Tania
I’m a born-and-raised Manitoba girl, and I’ve always been a little sentimental. I love the way something as simple as a familiar scent can take you back to a place you love, a person you miss, or a moment you wish you could hold onto just a little longer.
That love of memories is at the heart of Small Town Gift Co. What began as Small Town Candle Co. grew from a simple love of creating hand-poured candles into something much more.
Arborg, Manitoba
Small Town Gift Co. is based in Arborg, Manitoba, and our candles are hand-poured in small batches using soy wax. Being a small-town business means community matters to us.
Over the years, our candles have made their way into local shops and markets, and some of our favorite days have been spent setting up a table, meeting customers, and seeing familiar faces stop by.
There’s something special about knowing the hands that made what you’re bringing into your home.
More Than a Candle
For us, a candle isn’t just something that smells good. It’s fresh baking in the kitchen. It’s autumn arriving in Manitoba. It’s Christmas at home. It’s a favorite place, a familiar memory, or an ordinary evening that somehow becomes one of the moments you remember.
That’s why you’ll find scents inspired by seasons, places, and the simple comforts of home. Because sometimes the smallest things are the ones that bring back the biggest memories.
Small Town Gift Co. has grown and changed over the years, but the heart behind it hasn’t. We’re still creating products meant to make home feel special, celebrating the seasons as they come, and finding inspiration in everyday moments.
Thank you for supporting a small Manitoba business and for allowing something we’ve made to become a small part of your home and your story.
