Let’s get to know the duo a bit better:
Where do you find such a unique collection of items?
The two girls are always looking and searching for special merchandise. We feel strongly that good style does not necessarily need much money but creativity and fantasy. Having said that, the sky is the limit when trying to find products.
In what ways do you both work together as one team?
We are a classic example of opposites attracts: our up bringing, backgrounds, styles and personalities are very different. Yet we manage to have one vision, one concept for our store. We embrace the differences, respect and enjoy each other and feel the store is a great gift to each other.
What are your ultimate goals for the future of two girls shop?
The ultimate goal is to meet the customers’ needs and evolve with them and try to stay current with product and our philosophy in the store. And of course continue to always have fun with our store!!!
What are your most popular products or services?
Vibrant colored tubtrugs, hot pink snail watering can, porn for women books, recycled overnight totes, kitchen whimsys.
How do you spend your free time?
What free time??
What business mistake have you made that you will not repeat?
Not realizing from the get go that everyone does not share our same positive outlook, that healthy competition is not something to be threatened by but embraced and used as a source of growth.
