About Us
Where it all began
Starting off as a hobby in 2002, Janet and Eric Sparrow began making candles in their home kitchen, using canning jars bought at local auctions. They shared their creations with friends, family, and co-workers, and suddenly they started getting more requests for candles.
Beginning of an Era
Eric and Janet have strong ties to agricultural America. It’s their Midwest upbringing that inspired the creation of a cleaner, healthier candle experience.
Before long, interest in their clean-burning candles skyrocketed, and their hobby quickly transformed into a full-time job.
Rapidly Growing Nationwide
Years after the original candles were produced, Milkhouse has grown into a thriving company that continues to craft quality home fragrance products, with more than 32 million candles produced and counting!
At the heart of our candles is our signature soy-based wax blend, thoughtfully crafted using soy sourced from American-grown soybeans. We use no artificial dyes, and our candles are made with lead-free cotton wicks.
We've always believed in doing things the right way, creating thoughtfully crafted candles that deliver authentic fragrance and clean-burning performance you can feel good about bringing into your home.
