Jeremy and I have remodeled much of our home. We’ve redone our kitchen, the bath; even refinished hardwood flooring that was once covered by carpet. Steff often tells me that the term "Blood Sweat and Tears" applies perfectly in our situation! Anyone who knows us knows that we’ve also painted some rooms in our house 2 and 3 times. This is no joke! Part of this stems from loving the look of new paint. And part of it stems from trial and error. Oh yeah, we've messed up a few paint jobs! And we’ve certainly learned a few lessons along the way.
This brings me to one of the websites that I love! Ever wondered what a color palette will look like in your space?? Sherwin Williams has something called a Color Visualizer. It allows you to pick from a large variety of room styles. You can then browse the palettes of colors (we’re talking every color they make!) and drag and drop them into the room. It helps you see trim colors together and gives ideas for accent pieces you could use in the room.
I love this website and totally recommend you check it out before you paint! The best part? I don’t buy all my paint from Sherwin Williams. I simply find similar colors at Home Depot or Wal-Mart. Below you’ll find some links to some places I love to browse before tackling any project. There are great tips and tricks out there!
If you have a site you love, let us know! We’d love for you to share your favorite spaces on the web with us!
Happy Surfing!!
