Bringing Creativity to Life through Design, Digital Media, and Innovation

Hi, I’m Maelyn—a designer, creator, and digital problem-solver. This site showcases a range of my work, from custom video game accessories and freelance website design to social media content and personal creative projects. Whether through my small business on Etsy or collaborative client work, I focus on crafting thoughtful, visually engaging experiences that help ideas come to life.

At Candied Electronics, I blend the worlds of gaming and design to create custom accessories that elevate both your gaming experience and living space. From personalized Joy-Cons and retro wall art to planners and guides designed for gamers, I offer unique, one-of-a-kind items for every style-savvy gamer. I manage every aspect of the shop, including content creation and social media, to keep the experience fun and engaging for my community.

Web Development & HTML

I designed and built the following websites as freelance and personal projects, showcasing my skills in custom coding, visual design, content creation, and working with both code-based and no-code web development tools. These sites reflect my versatility in adapting to different brand voices, aesthetics, and user needs.

A bold, vintage-inspired website with black walls, gold accents, and ornate frame imagery—designed to feel like a luxurious yet edgy salon experience. The layout and aesthetic are reminiscent of modern glam, perfectly aligning with the brand's high-end but accessible positioning.

A clean, modern site with a stylish edge, built to showcase a contemporary grooming studio. With sharp visuals, confident branding, and user-friendly navigation, the design highlights precision services and personality while staying sleek and professional.

Flight is the official website for Flight, a tribute band to The Eagles. Designed by me, the site showcases the band's music, events, and story. Built using the Yola editor, the site reflects the band's classic rock vibe with a clean, user-friendly design. Check out their upcoming shows, events, and more as Flight takes you on a musical journey through The Eagles' greatest hits!

Welcome to MaeSpace, my personal HTML-based website in progress. Inspired by Y2K design and early web aesthetics, it features retro, Flash-style games and nostalgic visuals. I’m continuously coding and updating it, so stay tuned for new additions and a trip back to the good old days of the internet!
