Tools like the ColorSmart are great. They have replaced the good old colorwheel.

I would recommend that after you choose a color, buy a small sample and put it on your wall. Look at it in your own home. Paint looks different in every environment. Artificial lighting, sun exposure, and surrounding colors will all affect the way paint looks in your particular space.

Purple and green…just add gold and you’ll be ready for Mardi Gras

That colour scheme reminds me of a child’s playroom.

Hey, I rather like the purple and green – my daughter-in-law has those colours in her gym and her clients seem to like it too.

I love this tool. As a matter of fact I use it to build websites as well. I use a web color tool called ColorPic and use it to find out the hex color code. Many of the colors within ColorSmart looks great as colors on your webpages.

I am not Thai, but I like Thai food. Does that count? :-)

I used this Behr ColorSmart tool at Home Depot. It was awesome, although I wish there were more style/design choices. It was hard to visualize MY house in the colors I chose, even though A house was pictured in those colors.

Unfortunately, the printer was out of paper or something, and when I went to print my beautiful samples, I only received an error message. :-(

I would recommend this tool to anyone who really wants to see how Color A goes with Color B. And it's just fun to hang out in someone else's kitchen and paint the door red, then blue, then white.

Very kewl, Chanpory. Nice to make your acquaintance and bask in such luxurious style on your blog! (That fading tag cloud is just too cool!)

Hi Torley, you’re right… my name is of Thai origin. My mom is also Thai, and I believe Chanpory is an Anglicization of Thon Buri.

Haha yes, that would be a lot of fun, and help with theming. I know I've seen some general color-coordinators before, but not specifically for blogs.

On a serious note, keep up the great work on LifeClever, it's a delight to read.

BTW, are you of Thai heritage? Your name sounds that way to me... my name is an Anglicization of "Thorranit", and my Mom is Thai. :)
