Looking for ideas to kick-start your next room redo? All the time, right?! At least that’s the case in this house. With a family room renovation next on our do-it-yourself list, it’s time to brainstorm and create a design plan. Walls are currently a boring builder white, 10+ years old and dingy. A blank slate!
My Colortopia has a fun quiz to get me started. My results were pretty spot on. I like soft colors and neutrals.
Take the quiz, let me know how accurate it is for you.
The My Colortopia tool gave me a selection of color palettes (one main color and two coordinating colors that I can use for trim or accents) to browse through, save, print, share and paint! It’s an awesome source for planning a room design!
Start by uploading an inspiration photo in the MyColortopia wizard. Don’t have a color inspiration photo? Browse the inspiration gallery for ideas and upload one from there. I chose a photo from my own files with colors I like.
If there is a specific color you are looking for, narrow in on a smaller area when using the selection tool to generate colors you wish to see. See how I shrunk the frame to fit blues and greens…
Once I clicked ‘show colors’, the magic starts. I selected teal lake and MyColortopia provided me with a custom color palette…
Click a color from the selection to reveal an inspired color palette:
The option is there to print, email or share the palette too!
There’s so much more information at My Colortopia to kick start inspiration for your next room makeover including a blog post full of ideas written by some of our favorite talented DIY bloggers. Check it out!
I have been sponsored by Glidden brand paint to write this post but the thoughts and opinions expressed are my own.
Next up on our DIY list is our family room renovation and the Comfort Works sofa slipcover review saved the day. It was just what we needed for motivation to get started. With so many do-it-yourself projects planned for this room, a new couch is not in the budget. Our hunter green striped La-Z-Boy is very outdated and not our style at all anymore but it’s definitely good quality and solid but not what we want for our family room. A custom slip cover is the perfect solution.
Our sofa before is outdated and not our style…
