True Colour Experts in Atlanta

Last weekend, 17 participants convened at Gregory’s Paint & Flooring in John’s Creek, Atlanta.  It was perfect being in a space right above a Benjamin Moore Dealer (way easier to do the homework each day) as well as having flooring samples conveniently in the same place to show how to choose the correct undertone to coordinate with tiles and carpet.

Roy and Rebecca (above) Dumas are the knowledgeable owners who are your local experts in colour & flooring.  If you live nearby and want to make sure the undertones in your flooring coordinate with your house, best to have Rebecca help you.

Here’s the whole group trying to squeeze into one picture!

The first day Kristie Barnett, below (who was the first to register for Atlanta) wrote this post about the day.

Everyone wanted to know exactly which colours work the best with Pink Beige so I ended up writing ‘In Praise of Pinky Beige’ right after the course ended.  A few of you were surprised by the headline and Kristie mentioned it again in her next post; What Colour are you Afraid of?

Patsy Overton wrote about her experience of my course in this post on her blog. And Stacy at Home Stretch Redesigns sent this email directly afterwards:

“I left straight from Saturday’s class to follow up with a client to check the progress of her living room flooring installation and select wall colours for multiple rooms with fixed, outdated elements.  Armed with what I learned in your class, I easily explained the WHY of each colour I specified and the WHY NOT of each colour she had tested on the walls.  We discussed undertones, clean vs. muddy, cool vs. warm, dark color in a small space, etc.  She gave me a big hug, and off I went to have dinner with my fellas.  Happy Ending”.


I am happy to announce that Rebecca & Roy will host us again this Spring, my next course in Atlanta is May 11-13, 2011, email me at info@mariakillam.com or call me at 604.318.9725 if you’d like to register or have any questions on whether it’s right for you. Since the highest number of my readers are in the US, this course will sell out again, and if you can’t wait until then, I still have space in Vancouver’s True Colour Expert Training coming up next weekend, February 17-19, 2011, click here for rates and details.

If you would like your home to fill you with happiness every time you walk in, contact me.
