Our custom Pet memorial & celebration collections:
Inspired by one dog, for the love of all pets
Grief hits no two people the same. But it grips the heart with such immense pain and a sense loneliness, it feels impossible to move on.
We know this pain. NelliDesigns was born out of the need to create a way for pet owners to honor and celebrate their bonds in a personal, meaningful way.
When we lost Maggie in 2008, we felt shattered with deep cracks of brokeness in our hearts.
It was this loss that inspired us to create a candle in Maggie's honor to heal our broken hearts. As we made a few of these candles for friends, word spread and a business was born with Maggie's Light Memorial Candles.
The name, NelliDesigns came to be after we rescued Nelli who inspired further growth with additional products until her passing in 2020. Maggie & Nelli left behind a legacy we are proud to carry on.
In 2008, there was not an understanding of the deep loss and grief around losing a pet. And just like you, we needed our grief to be seen and understood. It is your stories shared over the years that have offered just the recognition of loss and grief we envisioned when we started this business.
You built this business.
And your ongoing support helps us aid Animal Folks of MN to continue their work for better protection of animals' rights.
So while this was inspired by one dog, and our deep sense of loss, please know you are contributing to the love and care of pets everywhere.
See what everyone's barking about ...
6 months ago I received a beautiful memorial candle made by NelliDesigns when my beloved Toby passed away. We love how it brings him to mind every time we light it, or when we see the personalized dog tag hanging on its collar, lit or not!

I ordered two of these candles for my brother and sister-in-law who lost both their rescue dogs in quick succession. I know this will be a comfort to them and will hopefully bring back all of the love and joy their sweet dogs brought to them. I am looking forward to giving them to them. I was so glad to find these perfect gifts
