Need help choosing wall colour
12 years ago
Honey oak floors, new cream kitchen cabinets, tile with peach undertone, grey and beige. Help me to choose a wall colour that will help tone down the 'orangey' look of the honey oak floors.

12 years agolast modified: 12 years agoThe orange tones in your panelling are very hard to camouflage. I'd suggest painting the panelling in SW classic ivory, which will work with the tiled floors and with the oak floors as well. It should tone down the floor color. I painted the walls in SW Aleutian (blue) and also SW artichoke (green) notice the huge difference with painted and unpainted panels.
