Samily

Samily is a great shop on etsy formed by two good friends sam and emily! I have had the great fortune to be able to do a short interview for your enjoyment.

Q. What do you love about etsy?Beyond getting to sell our stuff to a specific audience, the amazing people we've met! There are so many unique and friendly people on Etsy that we feel so blessed to have met. Also, etsy provides us with an alternate source of supplies - most of the yarn we use in our products is straight from another etsyian, so really it's just one big circle! The yarn we get from etsy is one of a kind, and we love to use it!

Q. Is this a business or a hobby?Both. Crocheting started as a hobby for both of us, but when we realized the potential, it grew into its own. While we both are full-time students and have another job (or three) we consider our etsy store a business that we hope to see grow in the future! But of course, we always remember to keep it a hobby too - if we're not having fun, we won't do it!

Q. What inspired you to start working with your medium?Each of us learned to crochet at a young age, but we really started crocheting a lot more when we became closer friends. We just started crocheting together when each of us found out that the other did it too, and it just grew. We're constantly inspired still, learning more and more!

Q. What is an intersting or funny fact about yourself?Well Emily was once a Disney's Magic Kingdom Jungle Cruise Skipper, and Sam is related to Lizzie Borden! But don't let that scare you... Disney folks are much less annoyingly happy in person!

Q: Where else can your products be found? Currently, we only sell on Etsy, but hope to make a move into craft shows this year! Keep an eye out for us in both th Rochester NY and Wallingford CT area. :D
