Author's Story

Hello, my name is Dasha, and I'm from Volnovakha.

The first time I thought about my own business was last spring during lockdown. I came to visit my friend Polina, and she suggested working on some cool shoppers using my prints, because I used to do tattoos, paintings and cooperated with one brand. My family also supported this idea and already started to make orders 🤗

In February, when the war started, I lost my house in Volnovaha. The feeling of "déjà vu'' that it’s happening again, that all my achievements of 8 years in Kyiv are lost, and again the feeling that me and my loved ones are in danger. Even at work, I was told that the company stopped activity for an uncertain period of time...

It was very bad...

But my friend supported me, didn't let me give up, I need to act, help and motivate people!

I took the stylus in my hands again and started to draw patriotic pictures.

We made cool and bright socks, stickers, and painted cups.

We transfer 15% of the profit to aid the Ukrainian Army and humanitarian needs 💛

I want to say that in the dark times, there is always a ray of light, and I know that every small step is bringing us towards victory 💙💛
