Which color for my dining room (pics included)

We're finally going to paint! Yay! But, I can't decide what color. DH took a picture of the room and then used photoshop to "paint" the walls. Now help me choose a color! TIA!!External Image

i like them both..

what color is your kitchen and what color is your china?

maybe the second, b/c I have been seeing a lot of the darker color for the dining room, this would be a little different

but they are both nice choices

I like them both but I would have to say the first color looks better...

We have a dark red dining room and we love it.

I like them both.

What are the colors for the rest of your house? Orange is warmer and will be better if you have Earth tones. Blue is cool but calming.

I think I prefer the orange.

I really like them both. However, the blue gets my vote. It's so different and looks great with the white.

I like the blue - with the dark furniture I think the orange is too dark. The blue brightens it up.

Blue curbs the appetite, it's generally not the best color for a dining area. But it is pretty.
I looove the orange.

I love the blue. I think the room pops more and looks larger and airy. And this comes from someone who painted their blue dining room red!! Chat Icon

I really like that color!

Re: Which color for my dining room (pics included)

They both look great -- so I don't think I can really pick, but I just have to say what a great job with PhotoShop -- I never thought of doing that to pick a color.

Did you have to do anything special to get the right color???

I love the orange

I think a nice area rug under the table could really make a difference also- to tie it all together!

Re: Which color for my dining room (pics included)

I love both colors but I'm partial to orange in a dining room and/or kitchen. The blue is beautiful (especially for a bedroom or bathroom) but the orange really makes your moulding and furniture pop.

Blue is on the other side of the spectrum from orange/red so the blue vase in your cabinet really pops against the orange. I love it.

I agree with Beth - an area rug will really tie it all together.
