Paint that goes with cherry wood furniture
Hi,
We have cherry dining room furniture, but very warm wood floors. We tried painting the walls blue, but I don't think it's working. Any suggestions?
(Note: these pics only show first coat. Didn't paint a second coat yet, hoping to find a different color)

Just wanted to add one more thing: you'd be amazed at how much framing that opening between the dining room and the adjoining room would make. I'm thinking framing it with woodwork, you can look it up for ideas, and I'm thinking a medium-dark wood--it doesn't necessarily have to be match your cherry furniture--or even more of a blond wood to go with your floor. It would really dress up the dining room. Good luck!
Buy a few samples pots of paint. Use them to paint foam board then prop them a few feet apart around the room. Look at them for a few days at different times of day eliminating them as you go. You will narrow it down and find the right color before doing all that work again.
