About drooz…. inspired accents for your child's room

how drooz studio was born ?…
It was the answer to a decorating dilemma!
The perfect alternative to a traditional wall mural.
In 1998 when my husband and I were waiting the arrival or our first baby we were inspired to create a magical mural for the nursery. However, living in Chicago’s hip Wicker Park, we found ourselves unable to paint the nursery walls our rented flat. Instead, we chose a large canvas, painted a whimsical design and hung in our daughter’s room – this was the first of many inspired ideas! The original “drooz studio” painting has traveled with our family thru many moves and now hangs in our current home… after almost 9 years it is still a treasured favorite!

drooz studio is proud to claim that WE created the “ original hand-painted wallhanging for children”.In 1998 there was very little (if any) handpainted wall art for children offered to decorate a nursery.We filled a need for a new product idea and unusual designs – and our customers have faithfully followed us.

What is “Drooz”?
Drooz is a word that my daughter used as a toddler.
She would use her “word” to describe her finger paints, playdough, crayons, a plain piece of paper or newly finished masterpiece! “Drooz” was her word for creation & color, expression & enchantment … the perfect word for what we love at drooz studio!

The studio….
After years of painting on dining room tables and cold basement floors…in 2004 drooz moved into a wonderful new studio (well, kinda new)! Our 1830's farmhouse is nestled into the rolling hills of Central New York's gorgeous Finger Lakes area. The quaint country-pink studio has recently undergone a complete renovation and now looks as good as new to house our offices, studio space, gallery and our growing staff of talented artists. We continue to dream and doodle… Our sketch books are filling up fast with wonderful new ideas and designs we can't wait to share with you!

Get inspired by drooz! Our goal is to provide quality workmanship and timeless designs that excite the parents as much as the children! We focus on current yet classic elements that are full of hand-detail, attention, quality, color and character. Insuring your child …and your child’s child…will also cherish their heirloom as much as you!

Wall hangings
The Original Hand-painted Wallhangings
Drooz Studio hand-painted wallhangings are heirloom quality pieces of artwork. Simply choose from any design in our collection and we will paint your canvas to order. Each painting is designed by Shelly Kennedy, lovingly hand painted at Drooz Studio then signed and dated by the artist. No two paintings are exactly alike because each is created just for you! Their strong visual impact and unique custom feel makes them a wonderful addition to a new nursery, a child’s bedroom, or the family play area. Enjoy!

These large canvases are easy to hang and can easily be moved, room to room, house to house, generation to generation. Each has a folded sleeve at the top and can be hung using the provided dowel and satin ribbon or your own hardware making them the perfect alternative to a mural painted directly onto the wall.
The wallhangings come in two sizes, 4 x5feet and 2x3feet.
Most wallhangings can be personalized with a name or an initial.
