    I know that a lot of people have issues picking out colour schemes, or they find one colour they like but can't choose a complementary one to go with it. I just wanted to share with you all the wonderful idea my H2B came up with yesterday... and it made working out my trio of colours so easy.

    Head to a DIY store, anywhere that has a decent paint selection, like Homebase or B&Q. Pick up the paint strips. 6 different shades per strip, a whole spectrum of strips to choose from. Then just start matching up strips or individual shades until you find a combination your'e happy with!

    It also makes showing your colour scheme to prospective florists/decorators etc really really easy!
    I hope this helps everyone!
