THE STORY
A self-taught polymer clay artist with a passion for all things whimsical, Marifini has carved out a magical niche in the world of handmade collectibles.
Originally from El Salvador and now based in Ontario, Canada, she specializes in designing and sculpting miniature gnomes—each one a tiny, enchanting character brought to life with love and imagination.
Marifini lives with her two young daughters, who often inspire her creativity and remind her to see the world through a playful, wonder-filled lens.
What began as a creative hobby soon blossomed into a full-time artistic journey, fueled by her love for storytelling and the joy her creations bring to others.
With an eye for detail and a heart for storytelling, Marifini crafts each gnome by hand, infusing them with unique personalities inspired by the seasons, holidays, and a sprinkle of everyday wonder. From cozy autumn harvest keepers to sparkling winter guardians, playful summer beachgoers to sweet spring garden dwellers, her creations celebrate the charm of every season.
Driven by a deep love for crafting and the joy her work brings to collectors around the world, Marifini continues to expand her whimsical world—one delightful gnome at a time.
