[Sponsored Post] Finding your interior design style

July 10, 2015 by Vikram Goyal

Everyone wants their home to reflect who they are. But designing a room to reflect your personality is more difficult than you might think. The brand-new TEC® Skill Set™ Color Selector Tool, a mobile-friendly online application, helps you define your personal style and create rooms that show it off. The Color Selector Tool helps with big-picture design decisions – like color scheme -– and small details – like tile type and grout color recommendations.

Check out the tool here.

The Color Selector Tool will lead you through an image-based quiz to get a sense of your lifestyle and personality. The web application uses your favorite photos to identify your design style. Then, it generates a mood board that shows how you can highlight your style in your kitchen or bathroom.

For example, for those who value “a life of simplicity”, the Color Selector Tool recommends a mood board with “gray natural stone tile” and grouts in gray and brown tones for the kitchen.

In contrast, it suggests that those who enjoy entertaining combine porcelain or ceramic tile floor with a glass tile backsplash – accented with white grouts – for a sleek, modern look.

You can save your mood board to your smartphone, share it on social media, email it to a friend and even send it to a local Lowe’s® designer to set up a free design consultation.

Watch this video of how easy it is:

Book Review: The Festival of Lights

As if Diwali weren’t colorful and fun enough, The Festival of Lights: A Lift-the-flap Diwali Celebration by Namita Moolani Mehra, illustrated by Darshika Varm, makes it even more fun to read about with flaps and things to lift and pull to see more information or details in the illustrations. 

The book is a story about a family getting ready for Diwali and what happens on the different days of the five-day celebration. There’s cleaning, shopping, crafting, food preparation and getting the home altar ready for the big day. 

It covers decorating the outside of the house with rangoli, diyas and lanterns, buying sweets to share with family and friends, the sights and scents of the mandir (home temple), getting dressed up in new fancy clothes, the story of Diwali and celebrations with relatives.  

Flaps (there are more than 140 in all) give you vocabulary words for different foods and definitions, as well as fun things like what’s inside the shopping basket or where the cat is hanging out. They also help illuminate the story of Diwali, which is the triumph of good over evil as Lord Ram defeated the demon Ravana to save his wife, Sita. 

This pretty and colorful book helps kids understand what Diwali is and how it is celebrated, regardless of whether they practice it at home. This would be a nice book to keep in a classroom (it’s rated for kids ages 3-7) or to have at home to teach kids about Diwali even if it’s not something you celebrate. Where I live there are a lot of people from India so we are probably exposed to Diwali more than some other regions of America, but it’s a nice holiday to know about wherever you live. 

Combine with the book Diwali and check out some fun lantern crafts and printables for kids to round out your experience. 

About the book: 24 pages, hardcover, published 2025 by Wide Eyed Editions. Suggested retail prices $22.99.
