Every piece is special — handcrafted with care by incredible grandmothers.
GUDZYK is more than a store of eco-felt accessories. We bring together skills, knowledge, and life experience across generations, proving that age is not a barrier but a value.
Every item is handcrafted by women aged 60–75, so you always know who made your piece and why it matters. Our mission is to connect older and younger generations through meaningful design and craftsmanship.
The project began with the international student organization Enactus and the phrase: “Grandma, I want a bag!”
We noticed an opportunity: grandmothers often love sewing, have valuable skills, time, and a desire to improve their financial situation. We combined these three elements into a sustainable model.
It started with the founder’s own grandmother — after making the first bags together, we realized this model could work for many other women across Ukraine.
