Color Bar Love


Today, I spent time playing  around in Photoshop elements and reading tutorials on The Coffee Shop blog.   I figured out how take colors from a picture and put them on the side in a bar.  Guess what?  It's called a color bar!  Who knew?  Until today I had never seen one before, and when I did, I fell in love with color bars!

Right after I finished my picture, I jumped over to pintrest and my sister-in-law, Katie, had just pinned this...

WHAT!?  Beautiful!

And this...

Lovely!

After I clicked on her pin, I was taken here, and I was intorduced to a whole new world full of beautiful and lovely color bars. 
 It's fabulous!
So, I tried some more myself. 


And, I love them, and I'm going to make a ton of them.
I don't know what I'll do with them, seeing as I am not a decorator or designer, but, that's not going to keep me from making them, and loving everyone of them.

If you would like to make your own, you can make them in photoshop or photoshop elements.  The tutorial is here.  Or if you have a favorite picture that you would like me to turn into a color bar for you,  let me know in the comments.  You can email it to me and I will color bar it for you!  

Oh, can you say screensavers, and screen backgrounds!  Have I mentioned that I love these?
