I am excited to share a new paint color selection tool today! Believe it or not, there is actually a tool out there that makes choosing paint colors fun and easy! Don’t believe me? Take a look for yourself and prepare to be amazed.
The awesome people at Glidden Paints have come up with a tool called My Image Inspiration which lets you upload a photo of your choice, and they will recommend paint colors for you based on the colors from your image. How cool is that!
I tried it for myself by uploading this photo I took in Bermuda. As you may know, Bermuda is pretty much my favorite place on Earth!
I think Bermuda is gorgeous, so how great would it be to choose a paint color inspired by my very favorite place! I uploaded this photo into the My Image Inspiration tool on the MyColortopia website and selected the area of the photo I wanted to draw color inspiration from. The tool gave me five paint colors based on my photo and from there was able to click on each color for a suggested color pallet.
And you know how I can tell the tool works well? I uploaded a photo of Bermuda, and one of the paint colors the tool suggested was called “Bermuda Bay!” It was right on the money!
The tool was so much fun, I tried it with another photo too. You know how much I love to travel, so I chose a photo from our vacation to Europe last year. I got a kick out of this old woman doll/statue that was outside of a little shop in Corsica.
I uploaded the photo to the My Image Inspiration tool and let it do its magic.
This image gave me a selection of warm colors to choose from. I selected “Sweet Tea” and the tool recommended three different color pallets. I especially like the middle one. How cool would it be to show people that your home’s paint colors where inspired by your favorite place.
You can check out the My Image Inspiration tool for yourself on Glidden’s MyColortopia website. The website actually has a lot of great other features too, like the fun color quiz I shared recently, as well as lots of really great articles from some amazing bloggers who are even answering questions submitted by readers! Check out the MyColortopia site for that great info.
