By donating to the UAE’s Al Jalila Foundation with every purchase, this brand embodies the essence of 'feel-good'.
During the pandemic, as many struggled with mental health challenges, Myrna Majed chose to transform her passion into purpose. She founded Hayalma, a UAE-based home décor brand and decided to channel her love for candle-making and home styling into something transformative. The name Hayalma carries a deep personal significance to Myrna, as it is derived from her daughters’ names—Haya, meaning “Living/Natural,” and Alma, meaning “Kind Soul.” Together, they form the essence of her brand: a blend of warmth, care, and soulful living. Myrna’s daughters are her greatest inspiration, driving her mission to show that any mother can follow her dreams and create something impactful.
Hayalma is a decor brand that not only creates beautiful, sustainable products but also promotes mental well-being. Using wood, rattan and bamboo that are not only inherently sustainable, but eco-friendly as well, the brand’s ethos are in line with HH Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum’s vision to make Dubai the world’s most sustainable city. These materials not only elevate the aesthetic of any home but also align with Myrna’s goal of promoting a sustainable lifestyle. With the festive season around the corner, Myrna recommends products like the Round Wood Serving Board and Eggshell Ceramic Vase as gifting options perfect for anyone seeking decor that brings a sense of calm and beauty into their space.

Myrna’s commitment to making a difference doesn’t stop with her products. With every purchase, Hayalma donates AED 10 to the UAE’s Al Jalila Foundation, a leading healthcare organisation founded by HH Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum. The foundation supports medical treatments, scholarships, and research on critical health issues such as cancer, diabetes, and mental health. With every purchase, customers are not only investing in their homes but also contributing to a worthy cause.
