Love Colour Campaign Finds Autumn Shade Inspirations

Oct. 28, 2010 - PRLog -- Autumn is strongly associated with colour – and a campaign from the Painting and Decorating Association and Crown Paints is setting out to find what shades best sum up the season.
Love Colour has been created to find the nation’s favourite colour for the home.

To get involved log on to http://www.crown-pda-lovecolour.co.uk/, and take part in the online poll, with just five short questions to answer - the favourite shade for the inside and exterior of a home, as well as doors and windows, together with the voter’s home county and their age.

Those completing the poll will have the chance of winning one of 30 iPod shuffle in a prize draw.
Neil Ogilvie, National President of the PDA, said: “Autumn is a great season to be inspired by colour.
“In the last few weeks, neutrals and creams have been proving popular with voters on the Love Colour poll, but perhaps as the temperatures drop, rich warm colours will start to register.”
