Choosing a paint color seems like such a simple task, however, if like me, you spend hours on the paint isle pondering over colors that are almost exactly alike. How does such a simple task become so overwhelming.
Sherwin-Williams is doing their part to help narrow down your options. One of their newest features allows you to chose a paint color based on their personality. It's called ColorSnap Color ID, and it features eight personality-based color palettes carefully designed to make the process of picking the perfect color easy.
To try this new feature you can visit your local store, or take a quiz online. The quiz will have you indicate your choice when it come to design preferences and even how you might handle a scuff on the floor. Based on your answers, Color ID determines which of the eight new palettes is the best fit for you.
The palettes include the following: Creative, Dreamer, Enthusiast, Free Spirit, Minimalist, Naturalist, Nurturer, and Trendsetter. Each palette contains 16 colors. With numerous possible color combinations, the palettes allow you to express your individual personality through your paint color.
