Little Giraffes
Small, sweet, impossible not to love
Some gifts you choose with your head and others you choose the moment you see them. Little Giraffes are the second kind: small giraffe-shaped candles, with long necks and tender little faces, in pastel tones. Made by hand, one at a time, in soy wax. They’re that event favor that earns an “aww, how cute” the moment your guests spot them — and that they then take home with affection.
How each Little Giraffe is made
Each Little Giraffe is made by hand, one at a time. We start with natural soy wax, which we melt with care and pour into the mold that gives the figure its silhouette: the body, the long neck, the little ears, the spots. The wax needs time to rest and set properly, and only then do we unmold the piece by hand and refine it patiently, so every detail comes out clean and beautiful. No two are exactly alike: it’s the small variations of handcrafting that make each Little Giraffe unique.
A little piece of Mallorca
Little Giraffes are born in Mallorca, made by hand on the island with the same Mediterranean calm we put into everything we do. When you hand them to your guests, you’re not just giving a favor: you’re giving a little piece of Mallorca, from a workshop where every piece is cared for one by one. For anyone dreaming of a celebration with soul, or who wants their guests to take home something with origin and care, that detail makes all the difference.
Perfect for christenings, baby showers and children’s celebrations
Their tender little faces and soft tones make Little Giraffes a perfect fit for christenings, baby showers, first birthdays and communions. They work both as a favor for guests —one at each table setting, ready to take home— and as part of the decoration, gathered in a bowl or scattered across the tables to create a charming little corner. They go with any pastel palette and bring that sweet touch that suits the most heartfelt celebrations so well.
Tones to combine
We make them in a range of pastel tones —ivory, dusty pink, sage green, beige, cream— that you can combine to dress the table, or choose in the tone that best fits your event. Baby girl? Pinks and creams. Baby boy? Soft greens, beige, off-white. A mix? That works too. Since we make them to order, we adapt to your palette so everything comes together.
A keepsake that’s remembered
They’re one of those favors guests happily accept and keep at home, lit or as a small piece of decor. Little Giraffes don’t wear out or end up forgotten in a drawer: you set them out, enjoy them and remember them. Every time someone sees one on a nursery shelf, the special day comes back. If you’re looking for a handmade event favor — tender and with presence — Little Giraffes are a safe bet.
Made to order, just the way you like
We make each Little Giraffe to order, so we can adapt it to what you need: the tone, the color combination and the quantity. For orders of several units —as is usual with event favors— we put together a special quote. One thing: since these are handmade, one-of-a-kind pieces, it’s best to order with some time to spare, especially in celebration season.
