ArtEffectPrints

Jordi: "As a child I was always drawing something and I was very interested to take this further. But there was no Art-school nearby, so when I was 14 years old I switched over to electronics. After that I went to College to study electronics and home automation and got a job in the sector (and I'm still working there now). Recently I've picked up my pencil again and started drawing more and more."

Jordi: "When I met My girlfriend (Karolien from korneliaShop) in 2012, I also met a real Etsy-fanatic. That way I got interested in Etsy too.
Thanks to my love for cool T-shirt prints, I started an Etsy shop. My dream is to see people walking down the street with my T-shirt designs. I love to make something that's hip and fun for other people."

Karolien: "I'm very happy to support Jordi's creativity. Because he has a day-job and we have baby-twins he often couldn't find enough time for Art Effect Prints, so I'm helping out with all the selling / shipping / photo's / marketing / ..., so he can focus on drawing."

Jordi & Karolien: "A lot of the designs are printed on T-shirts for men, women, babies and kids, that 's why a lot of people bought these as a matching set of outfits for everyone in their family. Since we became (twin)parents ourselves (in jan.2017), we like it even more to make 'familiy outfits'!

Jordi & Karolien: "We are against exploiting humans for mass production of clothing. It's way more fun when you know who made it and that you know it is made in a fair way. That's what we like about Etsy, you known who made it and you buy from real people.
Besides our etsy-shops we have a brick-and-mortar shop in our house, in the city centre of Mechelen, a small but lovely city in Belgium, Europe. Because we live upstairs and because we only sell our own products, it is very personal and customers love that!"
