ABOUT ME

Hi! I’m Xiomara the owner and designer behind Ninel Studio. I was born and raised in the beautiful and historical city of Boston, Massachusetts – where winters are long and summers are short (but, that’s what keeps things interesting!). I received my undergraduate degree from Boston College in 2010 and my master’s degree from Simmons College in 2014.

ABOUT NINEL STUDIO

While, my professional background is in Business and Communications Management, since I can remember, I have been drawn to anything crafty and authentically handmade. Combine that with my love for home décor, comfort and color and that is how Ninel Studio went from a dream to a reality. Thank you for stopping by my little shop!


the candle process

THE CREATIVE PROCESS

Coming up with the perfect candle scent is like a chemistry experiment. There is a lot of mixing of scents and different ratios and many, many different combinations that are tried before the perfect recipe is found.

THE TESTING PROCESS

Once we've landed on the scent we love we take our time to test. We test using a few different ratios until we figure out the perfect combination. We test the temperature of the wax - from the max temperature, to the mixing temperature to the pour temperature. 

THE MAKING PROCESS

We lovingly make each candle with the utmost care. Our candles are made in very small batches and each candle receives the level of attention it deserves. We then let each candle cure for at least three days to allow for a strong and decadent throw.
