When I was researching some interesting color tools (that let you experiment with various paint colors and ultimately pick the right colors before painting each of your rooms) I came across this:
Glidden’s Online Color Test
Yeah, it seems there’s a “test” for practically everything under the sun these days.
What’s interesting is the way they try “read” into your personality and lifestyle based on…
- …the way you decorate your home
- …your gardening style
- or in this case… the colors you prefer!
What this test revealed about me: (pretty accurate, too)
I have a strong desire for rewarding relationships.
Willing to work hard and meet whatever goals I’ve set for myself.
Enjoy others complementing my progress & feel threatened when they don’t.
Like to turn challenging situations into personally rewarding experiences.
Peace is my motto… avoiding disagreement and controversy at all times.
Pssst… I did the test again, trying to “fudge” the results. I was wondering if I’d happen to get some generic results that would still apply. Nope. The answers I got this time did not at all match my personality. So maybe it’s more accurate than I initially thought!
I like to help people find unique ways to do things that will save time & money — so I write about “outside the box” Household Tips and Life Hacks that most wouldn’t think of. I’m super-organized. And I LOVE to clean! I even enjoy doing laundry (but not ironing). I’m also a lifelong dog owner — so I often share my favorite tips for living with dogs inside your home (like smart home design choices and dog-friendly cleaning & decorating ideas). Career-wise, I’ve been sharing my best ideas with others by blogging full-time since 1998 (the same year that Google started… and before the days of Facebook and YouTube). Prior to that, I worked in Higher Ed over 10 years before switching gears to pursue activities that I’m truly passionate about instead. For example, I’ve worked at a vet, in a photo lab, and at a zoo — to name a few. I enjoy the outdoors via bicycle, motorcycle, Jeep, or RV. When I’m not cleaning, organizing, decorating, or fixing something… you’ll find me at the corner of Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites). To date, I’ve personally written over 200 articles about cleaning, organization, DIY repairs, and household hacks on this site! A few have over 2M shares; many others have over 100K shares.
