Customized Paint Deck For All the Colors in Your Home

A while back I saw a great idea on Pinterest to create a customized paint deck on stirsticks, but I wanted something a bit more compact, so I created my own using regular sized craft sticks {aka, popsicle sticks}.
I started by painting the front of the craft sticks with each of the colors of paint that we've used in the rooms of our house.


We then drilled a small hole in the top of each craft stick...
It took us a while to find the best method of drilling the holes without cracking the craft sticks {see my full blog post - link below - for my best tips to prevent cracking}.


If I had this project to do again, I would have drilled the holes before painting the sticks. This would have prevented me from having to repaint the ones that cracked. Learn from my mistake!
I also labeled the back of each craft stick with the brand and name/number of the paint color, as well as noting the room(s) in which we've used each color.
The finished custom paint deck hangs from a nail in our utility room along side all of our paint and paint supplies, making it easy to consult when selecting paint or matching colors.
