Vendor Spotlight

Down The Rabbit Hole made it to vendor spotlight!

Because we're full of awesome.

And cupcakes.

But mostly awesome.

At the bottom is the official interview, but it's not all we had to say. Here's the full story! It's a bit lengthy... Hence the cuts made, haha:

"Q: Who is Down the Rabbit Hole?
A: Down The Rabbit Hole consists of myself, Stephani Schuchart and Heather Lawson. We love all things crafty and strange.

Q: What is your favorite thing to craft/make?
A: We both have taken on a love for crochet since we started this business. We both pine over yarn and daydream about what we can turn it into. We make everything from scarves and hats to one of a kind amigurumi. We have cozies that are made for everything from your phone to your coffee cup, we even make them big enough for your laptop. We also have handmade jewelry and love to do custom orders! We love being able to take something as simple as a yarn and hook and turn in into a piece of useable art.

Q: Tell us about Down the Rabbit Hole; what inspired your shop, where do you get your ideas from, how do you all work together, what brought you to the Cape Riverfront Market?
A: We both have a love for creating strange and lovable things, which makes it easier to bounce ideas off one another. Stephani had heard about the market and thought it would be a fun way to get it all out there. I like to think that Down the Rabbit hole is an extension of ourselves. We're eclectic in what we like and a little bit macabre and we try to bring that to our booth. You never know what you’ll find or what we’ll be making next. Our talents are constantly evolving and changing so it’s hard to narrow it down to what we’ll have available.

Q: Why do you love the Cape Riverfront Market?
A: The experience. We came to the cape Riverfront market in hopes to surround ourselves with other venders who want to bring a local shopping experience to Cape. We want to shop local, and we hope that all of our customers know that when they shop with us they are getting something that is 100% handmade in our community. We get to create what we love by hand and meet other people who like it too.
And the corgis.
Bring me all the corgis."

Seriously though. ALL the corgis.

After we sent our interviewer our rough draft, she replied with a dozen corgi memes. I was in heaven!
