Color Style Studio
If you want to change the exterior paint color scheme of your house, try out different combinations on paper or better yet, using your computer, before investing in paint. I’ve come across a program called Color Style Studio.
This impressive software enables you to select color schemes using photos of real objects such as a house, an interior, an exterior and more from about 85 different sets, more then 45000 various colors. It also offers a free trial download version as well.
Paint Color Cheat Sheets
Does this sound like you?* You get easily overwhelmed by thousands of paint color choices out there and don’t know where to start * You can’t make up your mind, because a lot of the colors look the same to you, and you don’t know which one is right * You don’t understand why you have to go through all that agony and overwhelm when all you need is a "simple" beige/gold/green/blue/etc - shouldn’t there be an easier way? * You feel like you spend more time choosing and stressing out over the paint colors than actually enjoying them * You want a beautiful, tasteful home, but can’t afford to hire a color consultant * You hate it when the color that looked perfect on a swatch turns out totally different and all wrong on the walls * You are tired of buying paint color samples by the dozen and all that endless sampling that leads nowhere * You would like to try something new, but afraid to make a mistake - so you keep living with the same wall colors all your life ...then you are going to LOVE the Paint Color Cheat Sheets
It's a shortcut to the "right answers" in a paint color deck - the best thing since sliced bread!
Teds Woodworking
One of my other favorite hobbies is Woodworking.
"Teds Woodworking" is one of the most popular woodworking plans and projects packages online today.
What Exactly Is This Package?
Created by Ted McGrath, a professional woodworker, educator and AWI member, Teds Woodworking is a massive collection of more than 16,000 woodworking projects and blueprints which you can easily follow to build your own home furniture, garden chairs, dog houses, bird feeders, shed and many more. Ted McGrath spent the last 2 years putting together his woodworking package and according to him this package is the most comprehensive online today.
However, with so many woodworking packages out on the market and on the internet today, Is Teds Woodworking really worth the money?
To answer this question and to find if this package is really for you lets talk about some of the pros and cons of Ted McGrath's woodworking package.
The Pros
Suitable For Different Levels
There is no doubt that many woodworkers can benefit from this package. Beginners will find these woodworking plans' clear and concise nature gives them a solid foundation to build their first projects as they build their confidence to move on to more complex carpentry projects and increase their skill level. Advanced and professional woodworkers will appreciate the huge variety of different projects and the time saving value of having a high quality set of plans waiting for virtually any challenge.
Very Useful Bonuses
When you order Teds woodworking package you will also receive these 3 bonuses: 1. Free drawing and CAD plan viewer 2. 150 premium woodworking videos 3. The Complete Woodworking Carpentry Guide
The complete woodworking carpentry guide (a 200 pages guide with carpentry tips and tricks) is very useful for beginners and the premium videos can help any woodworker to hone his carpentry skills.
Surprisingly Organized
With 16,000 plans, you'd expect Teds Woodworking to be pretty disorganized. However I found it pretty easy to find the exact project I wanted.
Money Back Guarantee
The product comes with 60 days money back guarantee and if you are not completely satisfied with what you get, you will receive your money back.
The Cons
It May Take Time To Download The Package
The size of this download package is not small and if you have slow internet connection it may take you a couple of hours to download all the blueprints.
In this case it may be a good idea to upgrade to the DVD edition (you can do it at the members' area).
May Be A Little Overwhelming At First
Just because there are so many different woodworking projects and plans, the members' area can be a little overwhelming at first. However the plans are organized by category and once you get started, you will find it is not difficult to find what you are looking for.
Teds Woodworking Review - The Bottom Line
Overall, there is no doubt that Teds Woodworking is a very comprehensive and detailed woodworking package that comes with a great amount of solutions for any kind of woodworking project you might think of.
There are other great woodworking packages online and some of them are cheaper than this one, but I seriously doubt that you will find any package that is so comprehensive as this one with its thousands of detailed instructions for all kinds of projects, great bonuses and very good customer support.
I hope that you found this Teds Woodworking review to be helpful for you, all the best!
