The Dining Room is On My Mind

Our Dining room has been popping up in my long list of " to-do's" I still feel like we have for our house. I think I want to paint it soon..as in by the end of the summer. At first I was thinking I wanted a dark chocolate brown and although I have not ruled it out, I found this picture and I am LOVING it. It is a taupey- grayish color. We already have the crown molding and mark promises adding the additional pieces on the bottom half will be easy...

Here is our Dining Room currently...

Here is my inspiration...What do you think???
