So my fiance and I have black leather love seat and chair and we'll be buying the couch to match once we're in the new house.
What color should we paint our walls...we're having THE hardest time trying to figure out this lol |

Do you want a warm, cool, or neutral color? That narrows it down a bit.

I think you should do them like I painted mine - I think you saw it

There was a picture of a home for sale's living room, they had black leather furniture and light, bright green walls. It looked really nice, but I love
green

do you want one full color top to bottom or do you want accents? One full color is much easier.

How dark do you want your room? I, personally, would pick something lighter, but I prefer an airy room. I think there are some shades of olive green that could
work well. Maybe a medium shade with a bit more yellow in it?

I hate yellow....any kind of yellow
that's the color of the WHOLE house right now.
I want something dark, but not super dark. Dan suggested a "light brown" color but I don't think brown and black should go together

Camel-colored walls could be gorgeous with the black furniture--especially if you got pillows for the couch with those colors in them. Of course, the accents
you get for the room should have those colors (there can be other colors in there, too).

Forest green? royal blue?
You and Dan need to go to home depot and play around with the samples then post them and we'll tell you which to go for. |
