what color are you cabinets, countertops, floors and appliances?

we have cherry colored cabinets, black and tan speckled granite countertops and wood floors. we chose dessert tan by BM. great color to compliment the golden tones in the cabinets, countertops and floors.

hope this helps!

Behr Bone

Behr Taupe

We used Behr Taupe on the lower wall of our dining room and we used BEHR bone in the upstairs stairwell.....

They are both colors you wont get bored of. I forgot we also used the BEHR taupe in our back bedroom

Re: Need kitchen paint color help - FAST

If you're still undecided, take a picture of your kitchen and upload it into the Benjamin Moore site. It will allow you to 'paint' your own room! Or, if that's annoying (I haven't tried it with my own pic yet, so it may be), just select their 'kitchen' pics and play around with the colors so you can see it on walls instead of a sample.
