		<description><![CDATA[The most difficult part about revamping your walls is not applying the paint, it’s choosing the colour! It’s a problem many of us share. Hardware retailers will tell you that the Number One cause for paint returns by customers is an incorrect colour choice. Lighting, and even the time of day, all affect how colour appears. The colour swatch might have looked good as a small block of colour, but when applied to the walls of YOUR home, the colour is suddenly too dark, or doesn’t quite match the furniture … &#160; Many of us know this scenario all too well – along with the expense, extra time, and bother involved in rectifying a “mistake”. Colour experts advise choosing a shade lighter than the one you have fallen in love with as it may appear darker over a larger expanse; they also advise using darker colours in rooms that are well lit by natural light. &#160; But there’s an easier way to help safeguard your choice: Plascon Tester Pots! Each pot is a dinky-sized dose of paint choice relief. You can purchase a small amount of paint and create one or a few larger swatch patches on your walls before [...]]]></description>
