Hello Wendy. Do you have a lot of natural light in your dining room? If you do then I would suggest a darker shade like Benjamin Moore Naples Blue 2057-30. For smaller rooms without a lot natural light a lighter colour like Benjamin Moore Teal Ocean 2049-30 would be better. If you're looking to add pops of color I would try accessories like a table cloth, plate chargers or napkins in a rich coral or soft orange. Hope this helps!
