In my True Colour Expert Training last month a participant asked a really good question.
“Okay, so now I can see the undertones and I get it, now what?”

I recently met with a homeowner who was building two duplexes. She hired me specifically because she wanted to make sure all her finishes and undertones worked together. She said, “I have been in so many show homes where I know something is wrong but I can’t put my finger on exactly what it is. I want to make sure all the colours and undertones in my house are correct.”
My system of distinguishing undertones breaks it down in such a way that you can take any fabric or tile and say, “This is yellow-beige, or pink-beige, or green-beige,” etc. So, now that you can distinguish it, what are the “guidelines” to getting the undertones in your fixed finishes right?

Maria,
I have been subscribing to your newsletter for a few months now. Unfortunately due to difficulties beyond your control and mine, I am unable to access the content of your newsletter. It’s complicated and has nothing to do with you–except–you could help me by providing the url address of the main article you feature in the newsletter instead of just the link. That way I could copy and paste the url into a web browser which I can use –and read your wonderful articles. If you could manage this for me, I would greatly appreciate it. Who knows: it could help others who may have browser issues with links in their e-mail, too.
Thanks.
Alana
Would really appreciate if you would actually post a full article sometime.
To Alana in Canada, a suggestion to get around links that don’t work, is to hover mouse over link, right click, choose copy shortcut, then open a new window or tab, and paste the shortcut into the url address space and press enter.
I am having the same problem (I think) as people above. I am a subscriber already – but you often post articles that say “subscribe to my newsletter to read the rest”. I’d like to read the rest but can’t see how. If I click the link it points out I’m already a subscriber. Could it be that I use Safari as a browser? Love your blog, but this bit is maddening. I had hoped it would go away with the new site, but it doesn’t seem so.
I have the exact same problem as Wendy Nekson…it says I’m a subscriber, but I’ve never seen even one newsletter. I read everything that comes to email and Facebook. What are we doing wrong? P.S. Good problem: your readers are clamouring for more!
Same here. I’ve subscribed but don’t receive any newsletters.
I am also a subscriber and was a little confused by this at first because when I would try to read the past articles the links would always be broken. It thankfully is working fine for me now, I open up the newsletter, there is the beginning of the article and it then says “click this link to read the full article”, I click the link and it loads the article just fine. I was having problems reading articles at first too though…
I do not have browser issues, but I have subscribed to your newletter 4 times. I never comes to my inbox. HELP!!! publish the url.
I use to get the monthly newsletter emails but now I only get the daily ones. I keep looking for an email with the monthly info but can never find it.
same problem here. i’m a subscriber but can’t read the articles.
Look in your junk mail; that’s where mine went. And we use Safari.
Just wanted to say I’ve been getting your newsletter with no problems, both on your old site and on this one. And I use safari too.
