About Us

Hi there! So glad you found your way here.

I'm Heli – the founder, designer, maker, packer, customer service person, and constant printer-fixer behind Hidastaja Art.

Hidastaja Art was born in the summer of 2019 as a small side project, but it quickly grew into a full-blown business. In February 2020, I made a big decision: I left my hectic day job and jumped headfirst into entrepreneurship. Just two weeks later, the world turned upside down – but my very first jewelry design, Fuck This Shit, hit the moment perfectly. It reminded me that I was exactly where I was supposed to be.

At the heart of this business is the courage to do things differently. The selection includes jewelry, paper goods, clothing, and home decor – pieces born from everyday life, thoughts, and feelings. I design everything myself, and some of the products are also made here in Kartanonkoski, Vantaa.

Inspiration comes from daily life, the world around me, people – and the idea that not everything needs to be taken so seriously. I hope my products carry a sense of joy, strength, hope, and just the right amount of sarcasm. And maybe, sometimes, a gentle middle finger to the things that deserve it.

When I'm not working, you’ll most likely find me:

  • with a coffee cup (usually on the third refill)
  • walking in the forest
  • immersed in music, books, or a really good series
  • and quite often by the edge of an ice hockey rink

If you have any questions, ideas or just want to say hi, the best way to reach me is on Instagram @hidastajaart or by email at info@hidastajaart.fi.

So happy you’re here – I hope you enjoy the visit.
