Handmade by Kira: Creativity in the Heart of Los Angeles

PublishedNovember 13, 2023

Los Angeles, CA – Handmade by Kira has mastered the art of crafting luxury candles and they are now venturing into the world of skincare with the eagerly anticipated KiraSKIN collection.

Founded in 2017, by Ilena Ramsey, Handmade by Kira took a brief hiatus to allow its founder to focus on education, and emerged stronger than ever with a relaunch in October 2021.

The journey since then has been nothing short of remarkable, with the brand gaining momentum and capturing the hearts of local creatives and candle enthusiasts.

At Handmade by Kira, they don’t just sell products, they offer an extension of your personal journey.

The strongly scented candles produced by the brand are more than just decorative items—they create an ambiance, infusing spaces with a sense of comfort and tranquility. Crafted with both men and women in mind, Handmade By Kira also has a collection dedicated to their male consumers.

These candles include more masculine scents that are a perfect gift for any man in your life.

Soon, the brand plans to roll out their anticipated KiraSKIN collection, taking the brand’s commitment to natural beauty a step further. Crafted with the essence of nature, this skincare line promises a gentle yet effective range, embodying the belief that beauty is about embracing one’s essence.

What sets Handmade by Kira apart is not just the quality of its products, but the creative spirit that fuels its entrepreneurship.

“With Kira I’m able to let my imagination thrive and bring whatever I can think of to life from maple pancake candles that captures both the essence and aroma of breakfast memories,” says Ramsey. “It’s the joy of creative candles like sneakers, cereal, and desserts that tell stories without words. Each creation is a conversation starter, a piece of art that you can touch, smell, and experience.”

The brand takes pride in its ability to tell stories without words through its creations. From candles inspired by sneakers to those reminiscent of cereals and desserts, each product is a conversation starter—a piece of art that engages multiple senses.

In a world dominated by mass-produced goods, Handmade by Kira’s dedication to creativity and individuality is not just a business strategy; it’s a testament to the transformative power of imagination in the entrepreneurial landscape.
