What color to paint my kitchen?
I would like to paint my kitchen and need some color suggestions. I live in an older house built in the 20's, the kitchen is small and the not all the cabinets match perfectly. I don't know what kind of wood they are but none are very dark. All are large appliances are white. We also have hardwood floors and crown molding. I don't want to go to crazy with color and also do not want anything too dark. The colors of the connecting rooms are a "butter cream" and a "spiced apple". Any suggestions?

Cleaning Oriental Rugs Properly and Keep Them Looking Great
When you buy a wool carpet or area rug, you know that they have a beauty that cannot be compared. They are expensive but they are the finest carpets available. For many people wool carpets are a status symbol and they can maintain the stylishness and beauty of every room in your house. Taking proper care and cleaning your wool carpet regularly will make sure that you get your money's worth from the carpet. With frequent cleaning your expensive oriental rugs can easily outlive you and become a treasure that future family members will enjoy.
Wool carpets and oriental rugs should be vacuumed regularly two to three times a week to prevent them from getting too soiled. If you allow the dirt to get ground into the rugs before you vacuum you might find that you get irreversible traffic patterns that form. Even by vacuuming your wool carpets on a regular basis they need to be cleaned every year by a professional carpet cleaner so that they last a long time and maintain their beauty. When you get the carpet cleaning company to clean your carpet you should make sure they use a cleaning system that uses very little water. The rugs will dry much faster and you will prevent your wool carpets from developing mold or mildew because of the quantity of water that they hold.
Wool has many qualities that do not exist in synthetic carpets and because of this wool is very popular when decorating your home. Wool resists being crushed or flattened even when they are in areas that get a lot of traffic in your home. Many synthetic carpets are made with olefin or polyester. This type of carpet can crush or flatten in no time when it is used in high traffic situations. Using carpet underpadding below your carpet will stop uneven wear on your wool carpets and it is important to rotate your carpet every few months so that it wears evenly on all sides. This will help to prevent unsightly traffic patterns as quickly.
Wool has an amazing natural quality of stain resistance. There are natural oils in wool that repel spots and stains. This helps the wool be stain resistant but not stain proof. When you get a spill occurs you have to remove it as quickly as you can to prevent any stains becoming permanent. Use a soft paper towel or white cloth to blot away as much of the spill as possible making sure not to rub it in, because this might lead to permanent staining.
After you blot up the spill, use a carpet cleaner that is designed to work well with wool carpets. You can buy wool carpet cleaners for all kinds of spills online if you do not have the right kind of carpet cleaner with you at hand. Remember that many spills contain different oils (e.g. shoe polish, creams, cosmetics, butter, salad dressings etc.). They can be cleaned with dry cleaning solvent whereas food items and other non-oily spills can be cleaned with a solution of mild liquid detergent in water. Brush the nap in the correct direction after cleaning and dry your carpet using a cool hair dryer.
Wool rugs can actually hold 30% of their weight in moisture by absorbing moisture into the rug from the air in the room. This lowers the humidity in a room and reduces the static electricity in the carpet.
Using wall-to-wall wool carpets give you more comfort underfoot because they are soft, plush and warm. There is a very comfortable feeling of luxury as it squishes between your toes underfoot. They make wood floors warmer and stone floors more comfortable and are great over carpets to add that feeling of luxury.
