I want to share with you a few colour creation tools that I think are pretty crafty. I have not used all of them, but I have read some reviews and after checking them out, I am looking forward to making a comparison. With some of these web tools you can upload or link to an image and generate a colour scheme or palette, while others require you to enter a colour and it will generate complimentary colours for you.

Here is an example using the image above on the DeGraeve website:

Example using Sherwin-Williams (paint colours) website:


The possible uses for these tools are wonderful and are really great time savers. They are great web design and graphic tools and can even be used as a decorator's tool. Some of you may already be aware of these websites and may even have a few that you can suggest.
