During the last 2 years we’ve passed countless challenges. We’ve left our hometown because of non-stopping shelling after one of the ballistic missiles fell next to our home. We learned to live without lighting because our power plants were shelled and we had no electricity for several weeks, but orders had to be made and sent worldwide! Now we are happy every time we have electricity and water at home! We continue to go down to bomb shelters almost everyday and get up at 3 AM because of new massive missile attacks. Then we continue working to make someone’s room cozier and life a bit brighter! Our dedication to our work remains unwavering. We strive to bring comfort and joy into people's lives through our creations.
WOODRABOO is a couple of young Ukrainian artists, their cat and a very small workshop, which is now based in Kyiv. For the past 5 years we have been making and selling our handcrafted light up houses to more than 400 cities around the globe : from L.A. California to Tokyo Japan! Today miniature building lamps and toy car garages, made by our hands are already decorating interiors and delight their users in more than 700 homes in 50 countries around the world!
The whole story started with the only idea of a personificated birthday gift. When we made this very first house and it turned out beautiful - We made more and then opened a store (this very first house you can see in the photos of the store description).
Since then until this day, we design, saw, paint and glue little houses, trying to make them aesthetic & beautiful, creating comfort and coziness in any interior, wherever you place them. My main idea is to make them both cute and petite as well as realistic and “truthful”.
We constantly improve assembly techniques to ensure the houses are as reliable and easy to assemble as possible. All the painted houses are covered with paint in at least 3 layers - so that after years of serving they continue to delight the eyes of our customers. To simplify the assembly process and increase the reliability of the design we left the light bulb and batteries built into the house - now we just make special holes in the bottom where electric candles can fit - this is as simple as possible and it will never break and can last forever.
In all these years of work, we haven't received a single complaint, not a single parcel has gone missing and all our products delight their owners in all parts of the world!
The purpose of our work is to create pleasant moments, coziness and a sense of comfort in people's homes. No matter on what continents they are located - tiny light houses are a universal decorative element that arouses interest and creates comfort.
Today the list of what we do is quite wide: Night Light Houses and other small shelf Decor accessories of different architecture styles, Christmas Village Mini Cottages, huge soviet Apartment Building Lamps floating shelves with lights and coziness, minimalist Scandinavian souvenir houses... Wooden Trees and Letters as personalized gifts for her and for him, DIY kits, 3D puzzles for adults and children!
Despite the difficult situation in Ukraine We continue working here to show people from all over the world that this country is home to talented people who do wonderful things!
