Dining Room Paint Colors Brown and Green

by Painter Lady

Have you considered painting your dining room 2 tone? What about Brown and Green as your paint color choices?

I always get your e-mail newsletters and enjoy them very much..now I finally have something to send you back.

I painted my dining room today..I picked out the chocolate brown paint color and let my 8 year old son pick the green paint color..I think he did a great job.

Thanks for all your inspiration to start doing thing’s to our house.

We moved to Cumming, Ga 18 months ago from Las Vegas. We bought a 10 yr old home..going from tons of upgrades..to none.

We are finally starting to make this our own.

Take care, Amy

We didn’t have a lot of money to spend..so we went to Ikea..bought butcher block countertops, new farm sink & faucet..$800.00..then to Lowes and bought the Roma Stone (for floors) with a little liquid nails we used it for a backslash..I’m really happy with how it turned out..mini kitchen remodel on a budget..

Do you have any ideas for the kitchen cabinets?..I really do not like the white..Thanks Debra! Amy
