Brooklyn Candle Studio
Brooklyn Candle Studio by Tamara Mayne
Get To Know The Maker
Where are you from/where did you grow up?
I grew up in Northern Virginia, right outside of Washington, D.C. I've wanted to move to NYC since I was 14, inspired by stories of designers and creatives I'd read about in Vogue magazine. I moved to the city right after finishing college at UVA on a greyhound bus. The rest is history!
Why did you start your business?
I started it as a bit of an experiment and a fun project concepting and designing a line of candles, I thought best case scenario I'd make a little money on the side to fund my travel habit. I never imagined it would be where it is today.
How does your work connect to Brooklyn?
I started the candle business in Brooklyn, in the studio apartment I was living in with my now-husband. I was melting wax on the stove, wicking on the floor, every surface covered in candles. We have produced out of different studios in Brooklyn, mostly in Industry City ever since.
