When did you start selling on Etsy and Why Etsy?

We started selling on Etsy since May 2011, it’s sounds a bit late because we started Littledate since 2008. In the first 3 years, managing a retail shop and doing design at the same time took most of our time + energy and we couldn’t even kick off an online platform to showcase~ nevertheless we have been active Etsy users for a long time ~ searching for unique handmade and especially vintage treasure rarely found over the market, wonderful experiences like this really made us decide to join the Etsy community as sellers after quitting the retail this year.

Is this a full time gig for you and what do you love about it.?

We definitely love the freedom to totally dedicate to the one thing we love ~ that is priceless. 

In the mean time, no one takes away our enjoyment and responsibility, it’s all ours. 

If I could only buy one thing from your shop right now, which would you recommend?

Black Wood Yellow Quartz Necklace definitely suits you, bold and chic for a night out~

What was first piece you ever made/sold?

As far as I can remember, my first handmade piece was a necklace ... we found a batch of nicely glazed wood tube beads, mixed them with transparent olive color beads and gold-plated finding, finished with a chocolate woven thread in between each segments. It’s fun to recall the moment of first piece.

What are your plans for the future?

Future plan ... keep the free spirit, maintain a steady growth, try more technique and style, create more product on different categories...afterall no matter what kind of platform we choose to be, we still want to be true to ourselves to design things that we love.

Do you have a workspace? If so, can you share what it looks like?

Yes~ we have a studio / showroom located in a post factory district in Hong Kong. Nowadays, most of these factory buildings are occupied by bands, designers and artists like us~ interesting community. 

Where else can we find your goodies?

Except Etsy, mostly you can find our products on Facebook (Littledate Handmade Accessory) and our blog (mylittledate.blogspot.com) and sooner our website,www.mylittledate.com, will be renewed.

For fun, some fill in the blanks:

I can’t get through the day without ......grabbing a cup of coffee in the morning and coddling my cats before bedtime

I’m currently reading ......Wallpaper the Handmade issue....i guess it is from last month~

My favorite song is ......Damien Rice’s Dogs currently

My dream vacation would be ......Barcelona, Spain

Our brunch recommendation would be ......Frying Pan over Old Bailey st, the Central district. Vicki' loves their Ham and Egg Benedict while Dave loves their All Day Breakfast. It is a 24 hours breakfast restaurant, you can have it any time you want.
