Color ideas in an emergency!

I'm a color consultant and I deal in color emergencies everyday.
great combination
  Often the emergency is the painter is hired and will be on site in just a few hours and colors have not been selected. Sometimes the emergency is just that one can not decide or that one just doesn't have a sense of what colors are right or needed to complete the look.



  Other times the emergency is that clients just don't want to pick, they want someone else to do their work.

Many people seeking color advice don't seem to know that good ideas known as color schemes, are not created by magic. There is a  process in developing them, it is a skill that can be learned, taught and practiced, and, like a muscle, gets stronger the more it is used.

 Chip it! is a new Sherwin -Williams color tool that can generate a palette from any online computer image. Pretty useful tool to start the search for your perfect color. But, I did say the key word- "start".

another beautiful gray
is another tool to use in the case of a color emergency or just for inspiration. Check it out here.  BTW there are 8 palettes- one is sure to work in a last minute color emergency.


 Getting your best wall color is a process. Again there is no real magic, just good developed color sense and how to apply it. This is what I do...help people with their color emergencies. If you need help establishing your own color palette, contact me to help you create flow in your home. Admitting you need help is the first step in transforming your home and life!
