CREATIVE SESSIONS
Meet Karolina
the heart behind Driftlove
Artist, maker and creative host based in Chania, Crete.
Through Driftlove
I invite travelers to slow down, create something with their own hands and take home a meaningful memory of their journey.
My story
I was born and raised in Czech republic, where my creative path began.
Over the years I explored many forms of art - from beadwork, lampwork to fashion and exhibitions.
In 2007 I moved to the island of Crete. The sea, the light and the slower pace of life inspired a new chapter in my journey and Driftlove was born.
Today I combine my artistic backround with my love for nature and travel, creating workshops and handmade creations that carry the spirit of the slow life in Crete.
A Creative Journey
More than 15 years of creative exploration through beadwork, exhibitions, collaborative projects and life on the island of Crete.

Why Crete
Living in Crete changed the way I create.
The sea, driftwood, light and slow island life became a natural part of my work and the heart of Driftlove.
Why Driftlove
Driftlove was created from simple idea:
Every travel changes us, like the driftwood is changed by its journey from the tree to the seashore.
The most valuable souvenirs are not something we buy, but something we create and connect with ourselves.
Each piece you make in a workshop carries a memory, a feeling and a part of your journey.
Today
I host small creative workshops in Chania Old Town where you can design your own suncatcher, key chain, charm or jewelry using driftwood and natural materials.
Private sessions, small groups and a relaxed atmosphere - this is what is Driftlove about.
One day
Driftlove continues to grow. Alongside workshops, I am gradually developing my glass art practice, with the long-term vision of creating a dedicated glass art studio on Crete.
