I need help. I'm trying to come up with a color to paint the walls in
our livingroom. We plan to purchase a wine colored sofa and ottaman. We
have a dark walnut entertainment center as well. I suggested olive green
to my wife but she thinks it will look like christmas all year round.
Could someone recommend some colors and accessory colors.

thanks

My SIL just painted her living room a deep pumpkin color, I thought it
would look awful but it was gorgeous. Some furnature is wine (assuming you
mean wine to be a rich burgandy color) and some accessories are black
wrought iron....curtain rods, scones etc... It looks wonderful! Good luck!
