Sometimes, we know we want to make changes in the home, but we're not quite sure how it will look. Do you ever wish you could paint a room a certain colour just for a few hours, to see if you like it? Or perhaps you'd like to get a feel for your garden ideas, before you spend the money?

We understand it can be tricky to make those homemaking decisions, so we've pulled together a few websites to help you. They include a tool for checking out paint colours, and another to plan a garden.

Let us know what you think. Add your comments below.

Good luck!
