One life / But we're not the same

I would do light above and dark below. If you do that, you could do the whole room (leave the ceiling light (like white) though to keep the room from getting too dark) not just one wall.

Start with one wall and see how you like it.

Accent wall should be the whatever one you want. You can pick the one that gets the most light, gets seen the most, or the least.

I have two terracota walls, the fireplace one and one that's across it but not parallel to it. And I have one gold-green in my bedroom. Ohh and one soft orange in my kitchen...

I love color in the house, we dont use wallpaper at all and it's the only way to make it interesting...

I am doing orange on one wall of my kitchen! It's such a great bright color for a kitchen!

So at most, you would be painting 2 walls in the living room huh? Sounds like you should grab some soft mocha samples and do some testing!

You don't think the idea of making the accent wall opposite would work? Huuuummmm. thinking. I love my brown couch and my brown recliner. Then I have accent pillows that have green and brown. So maybe a color with more green? I think the mocha would allow me to shake it up. Maybe the accent wall should be like a chocolate...

It's so hard to tell w/o seeing. You know how that is.

Wonder if you could do brown below and green above?

[kat727]

Maybe a really light green. I have a green dining room with a sage above and avacado below and then the dark color swirled/ragged on top. Just really into earthy tones right now and of course I could always make them pop with accent pieces.

Behr suggests coordinating Melted Chocolate (250F-7) with Mythic Forest (500F-7)

Why does sound like we are talking about food? LOL

[MichelleLT]

LOL

Chocolate on the mind? Or avocado? Or sage (which I'll probably use in my spaghetti sauce tonight)?

Hmmm chocolate does sound good. There was also a color called Melted Fudge.

I want to get paid to name colors!

[kat727]

I would rather get paid for naming ice cream
