She added, "The idea of my project began with making handicrafts for my family and friends, and in 2014 I created an online store under the title 'rozza designs', which currently includes large numbers of followers. In its beginnings, the project was based on bringing a small sewing machine and a computer into my home, and then I began implementing "Designing on the computer and applying it manually on clothes, bags, wall hangings, and other decorative supplies. My project developed, people accepted it very much, and I expanded my services and products, but unfortunately, after the spread of the Corona pandemic, orders began to decrease, so I had to focus on the services that I started in 2016, such as designs, media, advertising, and marketing."

When I opened the exhibition, many people bet on my loss without me paying attention to them, other than the siege and wars that the Strip is subjected to, but I do not see This is an obstacle to proving oneself and developing the project. A person can prepare an alternative plan to complete his work, and the high prices constitute another challenge, such as raw materials and the Internet.”

In 2018, Rozan Al-Khazandar announced the idea of a personal initiative for the first time called “Butterflies of Palestine” to enable women to create a source of income to support their families. The initiative passes through four phases lasting five months, or according to each woman’s acceptance and level of response. She explained, “My vision was that there must be a virtual space that brings together Palestinian women from different places in the field of design, by giving special training free of charge to some women, and funding them with a portion of the project.” Money so they can start their projects.”

And she sent a message to the young girls, in which she said, "If the academic specialization differs inclinations from skill, one must believe in himself, keep pace with the labor market and its requirements, and integrate his educational field with his hobby in order to obtain what he dreams of, even if the circumstances are opposite to the trend. It must be continuity. You deserve to be." In a better world."
