A third-generation Florida native, Deejay grew up just north of Tampa, where summer days meant boating, fishing, and sun-drenched afternoons at the beach. Those memories still hold a special place in her heart—and eventually sparked the inspiration behind her brand.

After relocating to Key West with her husband, Captain Tyler, a beloved candle broke during their move. It may seem small, but that scent captured the essence of home. When she couldn’t find anything like it on the island, the idea hit her: what if she created it herself?

Driven by nostalgia and a passion for Southern charm, Deejay began hand-pouring candles that celebrate the spirit of coastal Florida. With entrepreneurial roots and an eye for detail, she spent months perfecting her craft—test batch after test batch—using only premium soy wax, high-quality wicks, and clean, unforgettable fragrances.

Each candle is a tribute to the places and moments she loves most—named after Florida landmarks, island memories, and the laid-back vibe that makes the Keys so special. Today, her creations are found in boutiques across the Florida Keys and shipped nationwide.

So go ahead—light one up, breathe it in, and let the scent take you somewhere sunny.
