Choosing your color palette made easy

     Choosing colors to paint your walls is a big decision.  We all have our favorite colors, but maybe painting your walls orange just isn't a livable option!  No matter how much you like the color.

     So how do you decide on a color palette that you can live with?  Painting can be fun, but not if you need to redo it because it turned out a disaster and not at all like you saw it in your mind.

     I have a fun solution to picking your a color palette.  While doing some surfing I found this fun tool at My Color Topia.  There is a quiz that in the end will give you colors based on your personality.  And who doesn't love a fun internet quiz?  The link is to their page that has several color picking tools that you will find useful as you decorate.  This personality based one is called My Life, My Colors Quiz.  

     The site is full of fun, helpful tools that will help you to really see what your room would look in your chosen color palette.  All before you go out and buy the paint.  Since is is powered by Glidden Paint you will get their paint color names, which is nice when you go to by the paint.

     I hope you find this site not only fun but useful.  I love that one of my colors is called Shaded Fern.  Makes me think of being out in the woods on a summer day, which is my number one happy place.
