I have reviewed about SkranchieZ in one of my recent post titled Trendy Hair Accessories – Skranchie. In this post, I conducted an email interview with the owner of the blogshop, Annie.

She had also shared in this interview an interesting online shopping tip when you make purchases online. You my readers can now find out more about Annie and her blogshop. =)

*Start of Interview*

1) Could you tell me more about yourself? How was your site created? Any other team member behind your blog shop’s success?

I am a 30 year-old homemaker and a mother of two girls who has a passion for sewing crafts. I am also a huge environment supporter and are trying my very best to help mother nature in whatever ways I can.

One of my mum’s friend, who is a dressmaker, decided to retire. She wanted to throw all the leftover materials away just like that. I told her I had this idea of buying them over and she was delighted. At the time, I had no time at all to put these materials to use as I had to juggle between my children, hubby and mum-in-law. After being put aside for 2 years, finally I can squeeze out some time to do this. I also bought some of the materials from tailor shops in Temerloh, Pahang.

I am a lone ranger in scrunchy making. No help from anyone at all. Sad but proud!

2) What is your blogshop or online shopping site offering? (Share at least 3.)
My blogshop concentrates only in handmade scrunchies. These are not just a normal scrunchies you get in shops. First of all they are handmade. And they are produced from leftover materials/fabrics bought from tailor shops.

Besides that, my blogshop also offers some personal experiences related to environment for my readers.

3) Which is your best selling item? And tell me more about it. (Preferably provide me a photo of at least 250 pixel in length)
Since my blog is quite new, I have not sold a lot of scrunchies yet, but my best seller is as attached.

It is priced at RM14.90. Three pastel colours strings (not ready made strings) made from polyester cloth are knotted into flower knots (chrysanthemum) and paired with polka dots materials for a little playfulness look. This is actually one of my favourite picks. I own one of them and received quite a number of positive feedback on it here in Temerloh.

4) Could you share one tip that your site have to ensure safe shopping online?

All payments are made either by Paypal (overseas customer) and Maybank Online transfer (local customers). Besides that, the photos taken on my scrunchies resembles the real one. I provide a close up view on my scrunchies to ensure customer will not regret later on.

5) One last online shopping tip you want to share with my readers.

Never trust the photos that are taken directly from catalogues (from Japan, Taiwan) for example like dresses. Photos taken by the blog owner on the product will resemble more of the real product than catalogues.  Ask for close up photos (normally taken with 7 megapixels cameras) before paying.
