I love this app! I can’t wait to see which photo you use for inspiration. My guess is #3 of the baby’s room.
Very good guess. 🙂 You must have seen my chair makeover post!
Anna
I am guessing you are going to use the nursery pic as your color inspiration. I would. And I’m really smart.
This is so cool! I’m excited to see how many more options I will have as I decorate. LOVE IT! I’m going with #1.
i say # 2
I would go with number 2 but I think number 3 works best for your style and the items you already have.
That’s a good guess! Thank you Amanda. 🙂
Anna
Amazing!! no more hours in the paint store ( well less hours anyhow) Where have you been all my life! Cant wait to get started! My guess in number 1 , so colourful, very inspiring!
I know,that’s what I was thinking! It’s going to make picking paint so much easier now! 🙂
Anna
Very cool app – thanks for bringing it to our attention!. I wish I could sign up for a ChipIt account without Facebook though. I like the colors in photo #1 the best 🙂
This is GREAT! And perfect timing my boyfriend and I are buying our first home so lots of design projects yay! I think you chose #1 beautiful and exciting colors!
Thank you. Have fun “chipping”! 🙂
Anna
I say #1 because that teal table would look the best against one of those colors! 🙂 Although, #3 does seem to be more of what you would regularly lean towards from what I can tell.
Well you’re kind of right with both. 🙂
Anna
I love pic #1. It would go with everything you have especially bringing out that orange color. Im going with that one and on my way to start chip it ing. so fun
Have fun, it’s addicting! 🙂
Anna
i’m betting the abstract painting- it has lots of fun colors, and it will match the painting you have and the table!

What an amazing new tool to use! I love that you share all of your wonderful finds. I’m going to guess number 2 – Enough colors to contrast and not something you’ve already done. Can’t wait to see!!
I think you will use the baby room as a chip it inspriration. The colors are light and calming and with the right inspirational pieces you will be great!
What a cool app. I love it how it simplifies things. You kinda gave away the answer of #3 being correct.
Haha, well it’s sort of the right answer. 🙂
Anna
That’s an awesome tool!! I’ll definitely be using it from now on!! I think you’ll pick #2.
Thanks Megan. 🙂
Anna
That is the neatest thing since Pinterest! The two of them combined is like a great dream where you wake up refreshed and inspired!!!
I would think the third, but who knows what other inspirational pictures and colors you might find between now & then? The desk is AMAZING!!!
I know, that’s what I thought. I think the two of them together are so fun but very dangerous for the budget. 🙂
Anna
I think you will pick the one the picture of the blue basket with the objects inside. I chipped it, and really love the SW 6482 Cape Verde color.
I love that color too. It’s so fun discovering all these new colors!
Anna
How fun! I think you are going to use image #2
Thank you Connie! 🙂
Anna
I’m going with #3. This is a seriously cool thing!
I know! I love it!
Anna
I think you’ll use the nursery pic for your inspiration! Such a fun app- and very useful as we’re going to be buying a new home soon and the previous owners LOVED wallpaper, so we’ll be removing it and painting most of the house!
Taking down the wallpaper won’t be fun but you’ll have lots of fun picking out your new colors! 🙂
Anna
i love using chip it! and i love the colors that can up for picture #1!!
Thank you! 🙂

Hi Anna!
I love this new app! This will be fun to use! Thanks for sharing it!
I think that considering your painting and the colors of that, that the #1 photo would be the best one to go with. Although, i love the pastel-like colors of the third picture.
Have fun painting!
It’s so fun, and addicting! You kind of read my mind with the paint choices, I think you’ll like what I ended up picking. 🙂
Anna
I think you will pick the ravishing coral or baize green from the second photo! Love this oh the projects running through my head!
I know, it’s an awesome and dangerously addicting tool. With Pinterest and Chip It I could look at paint ideas for hours. 🙂
Anna
I have used ‘Chip It’ several times in re-doing our family room – what a great tool! I think you will use the third photo inspiration (crib). Love the pop of yellow – it makes me happy!
It makes me happy too! I’m definitley using the yellow, did you see it on my chair makeover?
Anna 🙂
I am going to guess the picture of the items in the box. I am looking at using similar colors for my craft room/office!
I think you will use the 2nd picture. The colors have both the coral type and turquoise to match your two purchases. I love this new chip tool! Thanks!
I tweeted the giveaway here: https://twitter.com/ShutterBugSarah/status/217717905029214208
I would choose #2, Rice Paddy is a beautiful choice for walls. I love the Chip It tool … using it on pics of favorite foods for our kitchen redo.
I’m totally digging on #3. 🙂
Im going to guess number 3!! 🙂 What a cool app this is!! Im having fun with it already!
I know, it’s so fun and totally addicting! 🙂
Anna
I tweeted here: https://twitter.com/mariagridley/status/217719708416356353
I think you will choose the nursery picture. This is a really cool tool! 🙂
This is a great Sweepstakes and Wow I love the nursery. I am going to try the Chipit thing right now. Love all the Sherwin Williams colors.

I Tweeted! https://twitter.com/C48444/status/217722201124777984
Wow this is pretty awesome! I love all three chips but I’m going with number three for you 🙂
It does look a lot like me doesn’t it. 🙂
Anna
oooh.. the ravishing coral from the second photo or Goldenrod from the third image would look terrific with the desk and painting!!
I know, I love the ravishing coral! {I picked that as one of the colors}. 🙂
Anna
What an awesome tool – I LOVE it!!! I say #2
Very cool tool! I love Sherwin Williams paints & have used them exclusively – they have some great 30% off coupons they send out if you sign up for their preferred customer list. My guess is image #1 – so cool the way the Chip It tool worked with the image to select paint colors!
Woo-hoo, I’ll have to keep my eye out for the coupons!
Anna 🙂
I would like to see you use the nursery photo for inspiration! What a useful app! This could really tear into my daily productivity! Thanks Anna!
I know, it is definitley addicting!
Anna 🙂
I think you’re going to pick #3, it has very modern, fresh colors!
I know, isn’t it beautiful!?
Anna 🙂
Love the app. Thanks for the giveaway!
You’re welcome! Good luck!
Anna
I would guess the babies room with the yellow crib. Very cool app!
Thank you Holly! 🙂
Anna
I’m guessing #3
I love this! I can’t wait to try it out! This will make picking the perfect color so much easier. I choose #3 , mostly because I love these colors.
what a terrific tool! I am always inspired by art and color, and this app is PERFECT for putting a room together! love it! I would guess the last picture the baby room….the colors seem to go with your already style 🙂
I am going to guess photo #2 since it most closely matches the desk and the photo. I love the desk! I really want to learn how to paint furniture. Thanks!
Yeah, me too! I’m still learning that skill. I didn’t paint the desk, it came that way. 🙂
Anna

Really awesome app! I like #3
so sorry didn’t mean to post twice it said there was an error the first time.
No worries, I can delete it. 🙂
Anna
I “chip”ed #2! Fun tool! Now I can add chips to my Pinterest, too! Thanks for sharing how to do it!
That’s what I do, I chip tons of stuff on Pinterest! {Warning: it’s kind of addicting} 🙂
Anna
I chose #2. The colors really just looked great!
I love this idea….thanks for enlightening us yet again!
I love number 3. I am going to use for my bedroom.
Also, I am using it for my daughters wedding.
I am scanning her fabric, and voila color names.
Then I will purchase cans of paint for this DIY wedding!
How original is that?
Take care – thanks for giveaway!
That’s awesome! I would never think about using it for a wedding, but it’s perfect!
Anna
I love this app! I’m not going to get much work done playing around with it. I think you’ll pick the nursery.
Yeah, it’s a BIG time waster but it’s so much fun!!!
Anna 🙂
This is going to come in handy since I’m going to be painting my new house over the next few months. I always love colors in pictures like these, but when it comes to choosing my own I get lost in all the paint chips and can’t make up my mind. I’m going with the 2nd picutre. I love all the colors in it!
Awesome, sounds like this post came just in time for you! 🙂
Anna
the baby room
I like the one with maxie teal and radish.
