WHAT I LOVE AND WHAT I DO:
ABOUT:
Hi, I’m Rayna. I am a designer-stylist-creative director-curator … a multi-hyphen creative based in Toronto, Canada. I am an award winning prop stylist with over ten years of professional experience working on commercial and editorial sets. I spent the first half of my career focused on editorial design with work published in many magazines including Chatelaine Magazine, HGTV Magazine, and Today’s Parent Magazine. While I continue to style, I am also pursuing my love for design and patterns creating unique, playful, simple, yet stunning pattern designs available to license.
I am a proud mama of two boys, Benson + Oliver, who inspire everything I do. I curate the blog The Mom Lists - a design centered lifestyle brand featuring makers, creatives, and companies pushing boundaries and doing awesome things. I am a connector and love helping others. I am always cheering on other designers and small businesses - I truly believe in community over competition. I love juxtapositions that just work. I love layers. I love textures. I love patterns. I love muted and calm colours with a pop of excitement. I love curated chaos and timeless traits with a side of something new and fresh. I love nature walks with the fam and flowers, always flowers. Childrens artwork and doodles are just the best!
My versatile background in design and education is reflected in everything I do. I navigate each project with an open mind, endless curiosity, and great enthusiasm. I love collaborating and meeting new people, please say hello, at rayna.marlee@gmail.com - I’d love to connect.
