What color would you paint your walls in the living room if you had chocolate brown leather furniture?

I am thinking of a marigold or butterscoth. What about a lighter burgundy color?

If you got a photo of the room, post it in the Makeover Gallery at roomvues.com and get more suggestions from the roomvues community. It is hard to give you any real good advice without seeing what the room and furniture look like.

Reply:either a deep red/maroon, or a light cream... depending on your personality
Reply:Beige, Then any rugs or other accessories will be fine.
Reply:off white or cream maybe a yellowish color
Reply:Sherwin Williams has an awesome color called hemp and then you can do the trim (baseboards %26amp; crown molding) in satchel. Burgundy would be pretty as an accent wall but you will enjoy having lighter walls if you have dark furniture. Good luck!
Reply:Nice-or sage or tans too

Reply:With dark furniture lighter walls look better. You don't want the room to be too dark. The butterscotch sounds nice or maybe a cafe au lait shade of beige. Nice and warm
Reply:personally, I like warm and cozy, so would go with a forest green
Reply:Any Earth Color
Reply:butterscotch sounds nice.


a golden-yellowish. even a beige.


or a dusty green-grey.





anything really would match!





what you can do is go on yahoo image search and look up 'brown living room furniture' and you will get pictures of brown living room sets and you can look at the color of the walls to get an idea of what you think looks good.
Reply:any of the muted jewel tones or earth tones would work - just depends on how adventerous you are
Reply:any type of off-white that is cream colored with a hint of beige in it.
Reply:Butterscotch or a light butter color would look beautiful. It would really set off your furniture. You could use a deep burgundy for curtains or else perhaps chocolate colored curtains -- either would fit in and really make the room "designer" looking.
Reply:Brown is considered a neutral color so you can use any color you like. Any of the colors you suggested are fine however, if you choose a darker color like the burgundy you might want to do it on one accent wall and tie it into the other walls through your rug and accessories and accents.

Reply:Love the marigold and butterscotch! My formal living room has a brown leather sofa, mahogany piano and other dark wood pieces. I painted the walls Glidden Manila Tan (though I didn't use the Glidden paint, just the color) and the trim is a creamy white (Bher Swiss Coffee). Check out this web site, it will help you visualize the colors for your room. http://sherlink.sherwin.com/swapp/color_...
