Room Paint colors
Is there a site that lets you experiment with colors before painting a room, like you click yellow and it shows you how it would look, etc. I dont want a software program just want to get an idea of room colors.

Yes, I've seen something like that. Better Homes & Gardens, I think.

Interactive design tools
Better Homes & Gardens has several tools: www.bhg.com
Waverly fabric has a great one using paint, carpet & fabric: www.waverly.com
Behr paints: www.behr.com
Benjamin Moore & Sherwin Williams have one, too, I think.
Have fun! |

I painted my home (interior) not too liong ago and went to www.behr.com - great site, but depending on your monitor you might not get a true color, so go to Home Depot or Lowes and stock up on color swatches.
Also, I needed to match certain paint colors to fabric -- it worked!! They scanned the fabric and I got a perfect match. There are so many things that can be done. Have fun!!! |

I've been using one from Sherwin Williams. I've tried the Behr, Valspar, and Glidden ones also. However, I do like the Sherwin Williams one the best, although the rooms are much fancier and bigger than what will be in my starter home. Try it at http://sherlink.sherwin.com/swapp/co...izer/index.jsp.
Have fun! |

Choosing Paint Colors
I just found this new site which is pretty awesome! It's a photo gallery where people can upload photos of their painted rooms and are required to list the paint brand and color used in each room. I think it's a great reference tool that I have already used. Hope it helps you too!
