We recently moved and have been painting and painting and painting some more, ever since. I wanted to do something handy with my swatches, and have wished a couple times that I had them with me when shopping. And so I present to you, the color swatch ring:
I cut the paint color cards to the same size, made divider cards for each room in the house, laminated and hole punched them, and stuck them on a ring. And now I can flip right to living room and see both colors used in that room, or bedroom and see the colors used in that room. I even laminated a swatch of each fabric I used to sew bedding items and curtains, which was handy when choosing my paint colors.
Now if I'm shopping for something for the house I can take my colors with me, which is rather handy!
Did I mention that I love my laminator?
AMAZING IDEA!!! That is wonderful! You will be surprised at how handy this will be in the future to have ~ I've gone back and pulled out old color swatch cards from 5 yrs ago for reference!
