🌟 About Mai Darling Designs

More than art. More than stories.

A whole world to step into.

Mai Darling Designs is a handcrafted universe where every creation is filled with meaning, wonder, and a spark of joy. From tiny sculptures to immersive storybooks and seasonal collections — everything invites you to slow down, look closer, and reconnect with your inner magic and the wonders around us. 

This is not a trend. It’s a feeling.
A tiny nudge from your inner child saying:
"The world is still full of magic — come play."

 

✨ What makes Mai Darling Designs different?

Every piece is created by hand with intention, care, and love.
But what truly sets MDD apart is the story, a whole universe.
Each character lives in Ghostie World — a gentle, symbolic realm where curiosity is cherished, joy and whimsy is sacred, and personal growth blossoms quietly.

MDD is for grown-ups who still believe in wonder.

For those who are ready to take their inner child by the hand and embark on a whimsical journey. 

 

💫 Ghostie World 

Ghostie World is the whimsical core of Mai Darling Designs. It’s where little spirits like Ghosties, Ghostlings, Mosslings, The Moon Kitty and many others live  — each with their own meaning, message, magic. 

These stories aren’t just fantasy — they’re mirrors.
They help us reflect, grow, and dream a little bigger.

Whether it’s a moss-covered spirit whispering patience, or a crystal dino reminding you how rare you are — Ghostie World exists to bring out the joy that already lives inside you.

Ghostie World is another realm but it exists a lot closer than you’d think…

 

🌈 Who is behind all this magic?

Hi, I’m Maikki, your friendly Ghostie maker, the artist and storyteller behind Mai Darling Designs.

I sculpt, paint, photograph and write and create every part of this world by hand — from miniature sculptures to dioramas and storybooks.

With a background in art, performing arts, education and storytelling — from years of performing and teaching to sculpting and writing — I’ve spent my life shaping stories that invite wonder, play and joy.

Mai Darling Designs has grown from that journey into both an artistic practice and a heartfelt mission:

To bring more joy, imagination, and meaning into everyday life – to evoke the sparkle within.
