SUZIE GARDNER- Owner/Designer Burgundy Blue.
Suzie Gardner left her career in the entertainment industry five years ago to stay at home with her children. But her creative energies still flowed and she started hand-painting frames to sell at fairs, boutiques and farmers markets. She then developed an innovative baby-sitter board that provides sitters with pertinent information in case of an emergency. Produced in both English and Spanish, the boards became an instant hit with parents and gift shops. They were so popular that store owners asked Suzie to come up with additional products. Suzie responded by designing her first line of vintage funky T-shirts for babies. In no time, Suzie had a showroom representing her works in three states. Thus was born Burgundy Blue, a designer and manufacturer of baby, toddler and children's funky, fashionable high-quality handmade clothes and accessories. Burgundy Blue has continued to expand and its product line has been sold to over 500 retail stores. Suzie is very proud to say everything is made in the USA, most things are made in Sherman Oaks.

Suzie moved to Los Angeles seven years ago from Chicago. She currently lives in the San Fernando Valley with her husband Pete , and their two sons, Matthew and Dexter.
