Painting Kitchen With Cherry Cabinets

We have installed a light tan tile on the kitchen floor. Our cabinets are cherry oak. What would be a nice color (pastel) to paint the walls?

What about a very pale pink or aqua? (06/03/2010)

I like the idea of the aqua. Certain greens would work. It all depends on the proportions. With the tile and cabinet colors, the aqua or related blues, or a green could work. You need a small amount of a strong color, deep cherry, dark brown, or an intense version of the wall color. Picture frames, picture mats, curtains, floor mats, etc. that add an accent. (06/05/2010)
