3. Why bookmarks? Why not something else? What made you decide what you wanted to make?
Hopefully this question was answered well enough in question 1. We also felt that by making fun bookmarks, we could promote the fun of physical books again! We love the touch, the smell and crisp feel of books!
4. Tell us about your life story? How has it changed since opening your company!
Since opening craftedvan, we have become hermits! We love staying at home designing and cutting bookmarks!! All of our free time is spent working on "craft'ed" and we LOVE it! I doesn't feel like work at all.
5. What has been your proudest moment since opening your company?
Our proudest moment... that's a tough one. Probably our very first sale at a craft fair during the Christmas season!!! It felt so wonderful that others like our product! Most of our favorite times are during craft fairs, where we can feet people in person and talk to fellow crafters!
6. Did you already have the background knowledge on your product or did you just pick it up as a hobby?
We just picked our bookmarks as a hobby at first and it transformed into a business!
7. What do you love most about making your product?
Erica definitely loves the cutting of the bookmarks the best! Diana likes to organize the bookmarks in our "store" aka the upstairs room of one of our houses! ahha!
8. Why did you name your company the name it is?
Craft'ed came up a long time ago. Craft - because we love to craft and ED because of the first letters of our names (Erica and Diana). We also use craftedvan because we live in Vancouver!
1. What made you start your company?
I always wanted to be my own boss. I consider important for me to make my own schedule! And with this job I don't need to set up the alarm clock to wake up, I can work in the comfort of my home even in my slippers! I can say when to take a break or keep working!
2. Where are you from? I'm from Athens Greece.
3. Why did you choose to make the products you make? Why not something else? What made you decide what you wanted to make?
Aluminium as a material is ideal for making such items because it is easy to work with, it is resistant to corrosion and water in general, and is very lightweight.
And with the specific process can be look like silver but with costing significantly less. And the most important aluminium is easy to work without expensive tools.
4. Tell us about your life story? how has it changed since opening your company!
My previous job before opening my etsy shop meant working for 10-12 hours a day, staying away from my wife and home and not having any time to do something I liked!
Now I can spend the whole day with my wife, we work together and enjoy plenty of quality time. We now own our lives!
5. What has been your proudest moment since opening your company?
My proudest moment was when through my Etsy Shop we were able to rent a new house and pay our bills!
6. Did you already have the background knowledge on your product or did you just pick it up as a hobby?
I studied aircraft engineering at a technical school and there we used a lot of Aluminium. So I was familiar with it and its properties. After graduating I crafter various items out of Aluminium. So I was familiar with it and its properties. After graduating I crafted various items out of aluminum and about seven years ago I used to make several items for friends (mostly keychains) as gifts.
7. What do you love most about making your product?
I like to make new items and try new shapes. But mostly I've very proud about my Spartan Collection. I like the fact that those Greek Items travel around the globe and people have one small piece of the Greek History is their hands.
8. Why did you name your company the name it is?
I want it to keep the Greek name of Aluminium that is Aluminio because the history of this elements starts from here in Greece.
Passion is a familiar characteristic of all Greeks. I'm Passionate about what I do.
