Here are some words from Apurva :
-What made you want to start creating?-
“I had been working back in Mumbai comfortably. Never thought of myself as a workaholic but after shifting to a completely new place with no known souls there, I realized how much I needed to work. So there was a lot of frustration of Covid leading to job hiring freeze, and art was the only outlet I had. Once I started making it there was no stop to it. Being a crazy accessories freak myself I wanted to create more and more.”
-Would you like to share any family info? Pets?-
“No pets yet.”
-What is your MOST FAVORITE item you have created?-
“This would be very difficult but I am a chandelier kinda person. Anything with lots of layers is my kind of accessory.”
-What makes your shop unique? What is your specialty?-
“Variety. I think it’s my pro and my con. I have to create different things. Doing more colors in one piece is a possibility but only on custom orders. So if statement pieces and tons of variety is your thing, I might fit in it.”
-What is the story behind your business name?-
“Since my college days I have been someone who would dress up okay-ish but always accessorized with Quirky stuff. And that made me more myself. So I wanted to make Quirky stuff that will bring joy to the people and to the outfits. And that’s how I came to Quirk it up.”
