I want to add a glass tile backsplash to my kitchen but what color paint should I use on my walls?


Question:I want to add a glass tile mosaic backsplash to my kitchen something like this color but hopefully with a little more greens and reds...

I painted my walls a gold but now hate it and am trying to find a good color to replace it. I have painted two test spots with Benjamin Moore paints Nantucket Gray and Olive Branch. Neither of them is making me go "Oh thats it". My whole living and dining room area is painted Bassett Hall Gold from Porter Paints (which is a deep kahaki color) so I am trying to stay away from beiges. I am eventually going to get dark cabinets and a beigey countertop if this helps. Any suggestions would be great!

Answers:
How about a shade of green! It would compliment the copper color in the tiles, is a soothing color and would work well with your khaki color. I have glass tiles back splash with a green, yellow and light brown mosaic design and the sage green paint color looks great!


Go with a burnt orange, or deep red not candyapple more of a burgendy try test strips first
try a milk chocolate brown..or a pale yellow :)
Go different colors of green and perhaps one wall yellow. Go get some color charts and that would help you plan alot better!
if you are quite set on green and like those two colours but want it a little darker, look at
Benjamin moore;
gettysburg gray HC-107
providence olive HC-98

but I would also like to suggest a totally different route, look at
Benjamin moore;
ginger root CC-274
I think it would look nice with your tile/cabinet selection.

I think that your green choices are on the right track too.
