How we got started:

New Mexico Luminaria Company was founded by two friends who, although had full-time jobs, were always thinking of new business ideas, products or inventions. One Christmas holiday season as Albuquerque was decorated with traditional outdoor luminarias, the light bulb went on and they thought to themselves, "why not have luminarias that you can safely use inside the home?" There wasn't much on the market for indoor luminarias, and what they did find used real candles. Not wanting to burn down their houses they decided to make a luminaria using a battery operated light source. Thus the Little Luminaria was born.

Now luminarias can be enjoyed inside as well as outside the home by people all across the world.

"Our mission is to extend the tradition of luminarias beyond the borders of the Southwest. The luminaria is too charming and beautiful to only be enjoyed by a select few."
-Chris Pasek, Founder
