Mar S on Apr 12, 2015My kitchen is dark too, I went with Benjamin Moore HC-80 bleeker beige it is a great color and it isn't dark. I hate my oak cabinets they have turned really orange tinted as they age. Painting them might be the next project!Helpful Reply

Your Organized Friend on Apr 12, 2015Depends on if you would like you cabinets to pop or fade away. If you go with a blue shade your cabinets will pop out at you, if you want them to fade into the walls go with a yellow or orange shade.Helpful Reply

Carol Skaggs on Apr 12, 2015I would choose a soft yellow or pale gold. It would make the kitchen warm and inviting and wouldn't call attention to your cabinets as much.Helpful Reply

Carol Tanner on Apr 12, 2015Walls in my kitchen are white, so it really sets off the honey oak cabinets. I have had the oak since 2004 and it has yet to turn orange. I use accents of red in the lighting and accessories, so there is a contrast to the dark granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. I think it came together well!Helpful Reply

Cynthia H on Apr 13, 2015I have a very light peach color in my kitchen. The wall leading into our small dining/2nd living room is a darker shade with the arch framed in white. I've been thinking about repainting, but, still like the color.Helpful Reply
