the inaugural post

Welcome to my shiny new blog!

Your Favourite Colour Junkie is all about me and my life as a maker-mom.
I love bright colours. On my kids, my walls, the blankets on my bed.

After almost ten years as a designer and slave to the mass market textile industry I gave birth to a son. One year later we were lucky to be blessed with a daughter...Now that our family is complete I decided to start making again...only this time as a small business working into the wee hours of the night after the munchkins are sleeping (or not). Luckily I have a super supportive hubby (love ya babe) who helps me make it all happen.

So what do I make???
I design and screen print fabric which I then mix and match with store bought and vintage finds to make....
blankets
toys
pillows
ottomans
storage bins
basically fun and funky things for your home or for your baby!

With this blog I plan to:
share new designs I am working on....
show you some of the things that inspire me...
expose you to the world of crafty goodness out there!

So check back often!
Here's a peek at some of my wares:)

  1. And may I be the first client on your new blog? I *need* to have another kid so you can decorate the bare room. I cannot wait! ;-)
