Dan's of Central Florida, Inc. on Mar 31, 2011Hi Kathryn, There isn't really a certain color that is dominant beyond the general class of "earth tones." I would avoid something that is really dark. It might make the place look more like a cave than you want. An off brown or grey-green might go well with the stonework around your fireplace there.Helpful Reply
