YOUR LIFE IS THE PALETTE

When my children were born and I painted a nursery for the first time, color became my path to self-actualization—not because I loved decorating, but because using paint to color my home in shades of belonging helped me belong, become, and welcome them into a world of my own. That’s how I came to understand that I was destined to have a colorful past, that everyone else has one too, and that life is the palette. That’s how I belonged, became, and learned to bear what I knew—then helped others do the same.

This is how I became a Color Baggage expert.

Feeling Whole

“Gretchen, what a great concept you have here. I just purchased a home and was seeking guidance on how to unify my new house with paint… No one else really attempts to help you with a whole house concept. I have followed your process…”

New Way of Seeing

“I finally decided to stop and use Gretchen’s advice!!!! I should have done this first… I am just stunned by this awakening in color choosing for my walls!! This was a completely new way for me of choosing color and the results are fabulous…”

Liberating Choices

“Dear Gretchen… I can not tell you how much you have inspired me to add color to our home rather than going with the flow and paint it all in neutral colors.”
