Great TV show to help you color plan your hooked rugs

While huddled under a quilt on the couch I found a great color TV show, Colour Confidential, on HGTV. A show with this same concept (and the same host) was on years before under a different name but I can’t remember what it was called.

I like it for color planning ideas because the host, Jane Lockhart, uses a color wheel and starts the room color plan the same way I help a student color plan a rug.  Start with your favorite color.  Each choice narrows your options for the next choice.  I like she explains how each color will impact the room.  As you watch it, think about how your color choices affect your rug.

Color planning is an essential part of creating a successful rug hooking project, helping to bring your design to life with harmony and balance. The color planning for rug hooking section offers a great starting point, providing tips and resources for beginners and seasoned hookers alike.

If you’re finding it challenging to get the right mix, the adjustments in color planning guide can help you refine your choices and make sure everything blends seamlessly. It’s a valuable resource for making tweaks along the way.

For those who like to experiment, the easy color planning tool allows you to play with color combinations and see what fits your design. It’s a handy tool to build confidence in your selections and refine your palette.

2024 Update: I had a link above but it no longer went to the show.  Probably off the air.  I did find one episode on Youtube.
