Amelia,
the founder of Kamersvol Geskenke, tells the story of
humble beginnings
The story of Kamers is one of inspiration, support, belief and friendship.
It
all started 7 years ago, when Lise-marie and Mias vacated
their home and our new business moved in. In this beautiful
home, my dream was first realized; creating a platform
where creative people come together to inspire, encourage
and support one another. At the first Kamers in
Groeneweide 3, we worked with 40 suppliers and had 800
visitors. Humble beginnings indeed. And so, through the
years, I have been inspired, encouraged
and supported by my friends and family:
Lise Marie with her incredible flair for colour and design; Mias and Jan who
tirelessly supported us and picked up all the pieces we dropped; Corisa
with words, inspiration
and wisdom; Evette who challenged me to look at life through new eyes -
with her originality and conceptual gift she styled the show for 3 years.
She was truly responsible for that WOW when you first walk through the
door at Kamers. Wanda pushed me to take the business to new levels - introducing
the designers and concept stores. With her true understanding of
retail she has helped Kamers become a unique shopping experience. And of
course my wonderful husband, mother and kids: My goodness, how unbelievable
they have been.
They have done their fair share of delivering flyers, selling tickets, cooking
and nurturing my tired soul.
