I am a stay-at-home mom to a beautiful girl and baby boy. You may see her photobomb some of my pics. I also have two unruly dogs and a husband who helps me pick up furniture pieces at all hours of the day and transports my pieces to their new homes. I work in my studio to create innovative designs and unconventional styles. I have a special fondness for antique furniture. I love to modernize it a bit with creative products to give it a fresh new look so that it lives another life and story instead of being neglected or hauled to the dump. I also love upcycling old objects and making them beautiful again.

I am a professional furniture artist propelled by the urge to create furniture for creative expression and practical use. Furniture and decor are what make our homes inhabited while reflecting our personal aesthetic. It can create an atmosphere of warmth and comfort or dynamism. I want to create original pieces that only you own and aren’t mass-produced so that you can make your home truly unique. I believe in creating imaginative furniture that reflects passion, emotion, and feeling. Each piece is evocative and has its own unique
story.

My Name is Nadya Drozdova and I am a mixed media and scrapbooking lover from Estonia. I have been doing my hobby for 5 and a half years. For the last four of them I have been creating and teaching workshops and classes. I would call my own style tender and romantic, but sometimes I am happy to create something grungy or steampunk. I like to play with paints and mediums and to make beautiful compositions on my projects using embellishments and Prima flowers. The most interesting thing for me is to share my skills and knowledge with others. This is why I do my classes and YouTube videos with all my love and passion.
