✨Your Nice Things lights up the New Year’s Eve Gala Dinner at Palacio de los Duques – Gran Meliá in Madrid✨

Handcrafted and personalized candles that turn every moment into a unique experience✨

Some news fills us with special joy—and this is one of those moments.

A few weeks ago, we had the opportunity to create hundreds of personalized soy candles for the Hotel Fénix Gran Meliá in Madrid.
A carefully crafted project, designed as an exclusive gift for its guests, combining the hotel’s elegant aesthetic with the warmth and scent that define Your Nice Things.

What we didn’t expect was that this project would lead to something even more extraordinary.
Marina, a team member who discovered the candles we made for the Fénix, wanted them to be part of the Palacio de los Duques Gran Meliá —another of the group’s most iconic hotels in Madrid— to celebrate the New Year.

For this occasion, we created a large collection of "Snowflake" and "Birds" soy candles with a porcelain-like finish in red and green tones, to be offered as a special gift to guests attending the New Year’s Eve Gala Dinner.

Each candle will become part of a unique experience: a soft flame, a thoughtful design, and that gentle light that turns fleeting moments into lasting memories.

Located in the historic heart of Madrid, in the Austrias district, this beautiful hotel occupies a 19th-century palace and a 13th-century convent.
Inspired by the work of Velázquez, the Palacio de los Duques Gran Meliá blends art, history, and sophistication in every corner. Its interiors reflect timeless luxury and refined detail—from its secret gardens to the rooftop overlooking the Royal Palace.

An environment where design, elegance, and excellence come together, and where our candles will bring warmth and emotion to an unforgettable night.

That two hotels from the same group —Fénix Gran Meliá and Palacio de los Duques Gran Meliá— have trusted Your Nice Things fills us with pride.
It is no coincidence… it’s the result of dedication, attention to detail, and the passion we put into each and every one of our creations.

This new project reinforces our belief that handcrafted and personalized details have the power to transform any experience—whether in a hotel, a brand, an event, or a retail space—by adding emotional value that goes far beyond aesthetics.

We believe in the power of small gestures, in things made with care, in objects that express identity, and in that unique feeling that only arises when something is created with soul.

And so, we close this year with deep emotion and gratitude—for all we’ve experienced and for everything we’ve achieved thanks to those who have trusted us.

It has been a year of change, courage, and enthusiasm; a journey where every project, every order, and every collaboration has meant much more than just work—it has been a confirmation that believing in what we do is always worth it.

In 2026, we will continue to be inspired by what drives us most: creating soulful objects that convey warmth, beauty, and emotion, and we look forward to illuminating many more special moments alongside all those who have been part of our story.

Thank you to the Gran Meliá team for your trust, and of course to all the people, brands and projects who have accompanied us this year.

Each one has added their light to our path, and that makes it truly beautiful. 🕯️✨
