About us

Hi! We're Alin & Silvia and together we are Des Candles Studio 💖!

We started this project with more hope than experience, and little by little, as we hit the small goals we set for ourselves, that became the fuel to keep learning and to share what we were learning in the sparkling world of eco-friendly handmade candles 🌱.

You're probably wondering how, where and why — and honestly, we're not sure we have the answers either. The only sure thing is that we moved from La Terreta 🌴 to Barcelona, and after going through a series of huge changes in a short amount of time, we've reached the point where we want to be, and above all, grateful for where life is taking us.

We're simple, easygoing people who love travelling and sharing experiences with the people around us, and we firmly believe we can help build a more sustainable world, step by step, with everyone's little contribution.

That's why, and because of the luck of getting to meet you at markets, workshops, online, reading your reviews, or simply seeing how happy you are smelling our candles and being taken back to your memories… for all of that and much more, all our effort, resources and time REALLY IS WORTH IT 💕.

Thank you, truly, for the warm welcome we've had, for your kind words and constructive feedback that help us improve, and above all, for making it this far with us, and reading our story 🌟. In a world where we rarely stop to appreciate the small everyday gifts, thank you again for being here.

We hope our workshops, candles and decorative pieces help you as much as they help us, that they make you smile and feel something, and that they're there with you in your good moments and your not-so-good ones too.

Because that's what life is: living and sharing 💖.
