The Battle of Cream VS. White

I just put a post on facebook asking for opinions on the color of the crown molding in my dining room.  I plan to paint everything else in the room white, but hadn't decided about keeping the historical green that is on the crown molding.  I got a bunch of comments that I needed to paint the walls cream and not white---they are so wrong, but I hate facebook fights, so will just make snide comments here where hardly any one ever looks.  Case in point:


        The living room before was cream, it was ok.

Now that it is white, it is kind of amazing, I think.

So, despite the advice, the dining room is going to be white.  I always know what I want! (well, I still haven't completely decided about the green)

Here is the dining room today, a complete mess and the exact color of a salmon fillet.  We'll talk about the hideous giant built-in buffet later--it is going far away the minute I get my kitchen done.
