So, you're sitting in your favorite easy chair and the home decorating bug bites you. It's time to stop procrastinating and paint that room or hang that picture.
But, as soon as the bug bites, you begin to feel its sting, because now you have to leave that cushy comfy easy chair and hit the hardware store to get the supplies you need.
So you want to paint the room but the paint swatch wall just makes your eyes go blurry. If you have a cell phone that supports internet applications then snuggle back in and find your color through that fabulous phone!
Yes, there is an amazing App that will take you from general colors to the specific color hues, so you end up with just the right color combination for that home decorating paint project.
To get started of course you must first download the App (it's only $1.99) and then start by creating a file for the room you want to paint. Touch the screen to trigger the color scroller as it displays pallets of related hues and colors that compliment each other.
Touch the colors you like and drag them to a work area to manipulate them to see how they look together. Once the choice has been made, the App will identify color names and the manufactures (from the top 6 in the industry) and you're done.
It's difficult to pick the right colors with so many options displayed at the home improvement store.
Need a plumb line, ruler or level to hang that accent shelf. No more excuses because "There's an App For That"!
This App is the home decorators choice (only $1.99). It contains 5 handy home decorating tools: plumb bob, bubble level, steel protractor, ruler and a surface level. Inaccurate, eyeball measurements is a thing of the past. These tools can be summed up in one word: Handy. You'll be looking for things to do now, just so you can play with them.
The ball moves, the plumb bobs and when you get it "just right" it will beep with smug satisfaction. It's amazing just how real these tools look and feel. It leaves you feeling like you are not using your phone at all - You gotta try it.
