Saving Record of Paint Color

When my husband paints a room, he removes the light switch plate. Write the brand of paint and the color under the light switch plate. When he is done painting, I cover the writing with the light switch plate. If you ever need to get any more of the paint for that room, just remove the switch plate cover and you have all the information you will need. I can't rely on my memory anymore, so this really works for us.

What a great idea! When I am not living an a "rental cream" apt., I put the stir stick in the closet when I am done painting and the number from the can. Both work really well.
