In celebration of the wonderful women in our TVM community, we sat down with Senga of A Colourful Life to learn more about her brand and her story.
How was A Colourful Life born?
A Colourful Life began in Lennox Head, initially we were A Colourful Life - Vintage and Retro, we progressed over many years to become A Colourful Life - Handmade Homewares.Way back in August 2013 we could be found at The Village Markets selling our vintage collectables and cushions.
What initially inspired you to start creating your range, and further create your business?
Byron Bay is such a beautiful beach and tropical area and that is reflected in our style. A move to Byron Bay area from Canberra, provided me with the opportunity to follow a new direction from the world of finance to being a creative.
How important is it for women to lift each other up and what does that mean to you?
The women I meet at the market become my community, I share whatever knowledge I can with those who are just starting out on their journey. I have found a wealth of knowledge over the years from my fellow stallholders and business owners.
The 2021 IWD Campaign theme is #ChooseToChallenge - what’s something you’re going to challenge over the next year?
My challenge is to continue to support other creatives on their journey.
