About Me

Why Color it Purple?

The name Color It Purple probably doesn't do a very good job of telling what my store is all about, but it does tell a lot about what we love to celebrate in our children, and that's their uniqueness! When my oldest daughter was 3 and 4, she loved to paint and she spent a lot of time at her easel. She ALWAYS chose purple paint and she always painted a solid purple painting. The shades varied, but it was always solid purple! At first I worried why she didn't use other colors or draw trees or flowers, but I soon realized that she had her own way of doing things . . . she was unique in her own way . . . all of my children are. She reminded me that there is not always a "set" way of doing things and that it's okay to be different. In such a simple way, her solid purple paintings celebrated her uniqueness . . . and so I introduce coloritpurple.com!
