DragonsNDust Origin Story

Welcome to DragonsNDust, where whimsy meets creativity and a sprinkle of magic! We’re not your average crafting crew; we’re a bunch of dragon-loving, resin-pouring, glitter-slinging enthusiasts who believe that life is too short for boring decor (and we definitely have the dragons to prove it!).

My journey began in a rather unexpected way—grief can be a sneaky little beast, and when I lost my father, I turned to crafting like a moth to a flame (or a dragon to a hoard of shiny things). From polymer clay to soap making, and even knitting, I tried it all until I discovered my true love: resin. It was like finding the last piece of a jigsaw puzzle, but with more sparkles!

Now, you might be wondering about the dragons. Well, my husband (affectionately referred to as Mohu) had a *slight* issue with the number of dragons taking over our home (we’re talking a full-on dragon invasion). So, he suggested I either part ways with them or open an Etsy shop. Spoiler alert: I chose the latter! And thus, DragonsNDust was born in 2018, right here in Pittsburgh, where every piece is crafted with love, laughter, lots of swearing, and a dash of dragon magic.

With a bigger workshop and a TikTok account (thanks to THE HOARD—definitely not a cult, we promise!), we’ve built a community of fellow creatives who inspire us daily. Our whimsical collection includes adorable display pieces like the Cutethuluh and the Hoarding Dragons with customizable options (because who wouldn’t want eyelashes on their dragon?).

So, whether you’re here to add a touch of magic to your space or just to admire our dragon army, we’re thrilled to have you! Remember, our treasures are purely for display and not for consumption—unless you’re a dragon, in which case, we can’t help you.....just kidding DO NOT EAT THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
