With the second wave of COVID-19 upon us, I have decided to bring back Small Business Sundays! Small businesses are the backbone of our economy and we need to support them however we can.
As a mom, I know how difficult it has can be to keep your children entertained, especially when we are in the winter months and aren’t allowed to go anywhere or do anything. Play in Colour makes amazing crayons in many different shapes from the alphabet to unicorns! If your kid is anything like mine, crayons can provide hours of fun.
Play in Colour was started in Edmonton in the fall of 2020, Tanja – the Chief Crayon Maker was looking for crayon gifts for the little kids in her wedding. After not being able to find exactly what she was looking for, she decided to create her own. She got together hand me down crayons and voila! Play in Colour was born.
What is Unique About Your Business or What Made You Choose This Type of Business?
Play in Colour is all about FUN! It centres on the thrill of new crayons that are personalized, and favourite characters including Lego, dinosaurs, and unicorns!
What is Your Favourite Small Business (Aside From Your Own)?
BeautyMarkspayeg. My favourite eyebrow gal Tamara! I love Wyld Rust signs. So pretty.
If You Had One Piece of Advice to Someone Just Starting Out, What Would It Be?
Just go for it! Research, plan, and have fun!
What Are Your Long-Term Business Goals?
A line of clothing and craft crayon supplies.
What Is Your Funniest/Weirdest/Most Memorable Experience With A Customer or Client?
I dropped a crayon set at the wrong house and luckily the lovely customer knew the other owners!
