WHO ARE YOU, WHERE ARE YOU FROM, & WHAT DO YOU DO?
We are Emma Statkus and Maycie Moore from Aiken, SC and we are the business partners of Crafting by Emma and Maycie

DESCRIBE YOUR PROCESS.
We research trends and theme ideas and then come up with our designs. We try to think what our customers would like to see, what is trending and what we can do different from other businesses that are like ours.

WHAT INSPIRES YOU?
We are inspired by shows, artists and other small businesses

FUN FACT ABOUT YOU.
We like creating art and running our business but besides that, a fun fact is that Emma rides horses and Maycie shoots archery.

FAVORITE THING ABOUT DOWNTOWN AUGUSTA.
My favorite thing about Downtown Augusta is visiting the marina and Two Dudes and a Boat Kayak and I love how supportive the art community is.

WHY DO YOU LOVE TO DESIGN, CREATE + MAKE?
We love taking a theme ex Taylor Swift, and seeing it come to life through our beads and the best part is seeing our customers wear our jewelry.

WHAT IS ONE PIECE OF ADVICE YOU WOULD SHARE WITH OTHER ARTISTS + MAKERS?
Keep going! It is hard as a kid or teen to start a business but don’t give up because there are a lot of people that will support and believe in you.
