It’s exciting to decorate and once you decide on a color for the walls it is natural to want to get it done right away. Just keep in mind that there can be a big difference between how a color looks on a 2″ x 2″ square and how it looks on an entire wall.
If you’ve read my “Sample Your Way to Paint Color Success” report you know that I advocate painting a sample board of the color you select for any room prior to buying all of your paint. Painting a sample board allows you to get a much better idea of how your color will look and you will be able to see how it is effected by the light at different times of the day.
The problem with taking the time to do this is taking the time to do this and making a mess before your ready to start painting the entire room. So regardless of how much sense it makes when it comes time to paint some people get impatient and skip this step.
One company that identified this problem and offers a great solution is C2 Paint Company. In addition to the small paint chips they offer an 18″ x 24″ poster-sized paint chip perfect for trying that new color without grabbing a brush or opening a jar of paint.
The C2 Collection Ultimate Paint Chips are only $6.00 each which is comparable to the cost of the sample jars of paint offered by other companies and best of all no mess, no waiting! Wouldn’t it be great if all paint companies made it this easy?
