Being that it's Amazon Prime Day, I think many of us have been keeping an eye on the deals out there. It reminded me that I wanted to put together a list of gifts for people who are color obsessed! It may even be for yourself, no shame. #treatyourself 

On my travels, I've been finding really great gifts that I've been taking photos of for this purpose, and I wanted to share them with you! These were found mostly in museums, gift shops, and quirky pop-up shops across through the world.

The Secret Lives of Colour tells the unusual stories of the 75 most fascinating shades, dyes and hues.

In this book Kassia St Clair has turned her lifelong obsession with colours and where they come from (whether Van Gogh's chrome yellow sunflowers or punk's fluorescent pink) into a unique study of human civilisation.
