colors chosen - opinions welcome (and an H AW!)

Met with the color consultant today.  Holy crap, I picked a lot of colors in an hour, and I am a little iffy on some (dining room in particular).  And oh yeah, H ran his first marathon on Sunday!  I'm proud and relieved, and he is already planning his second.  So haven't been around much lately, but maybe when things settle down after the move I can come back to the time suck I love so dearly. 

Dining room walls: 


Dining room ceiling, as well as main floor hallway and laundry room:


Foyer and up the front stairs into the upstairs hallway:


Kitchen:


Family room (which is open to the kitchen, and is mostly windows) as well as the cut out above the kitchen table:


Natalie's room:


Bathroom for the girls (attaches to Natalie's room):


Elizabeth's room:


Guest room is similar to Elizabeth's room, but you can't really see a difference on the computer screen.  looks different in person though with the bedding.

Any input is welcome before the painter orders an ass load of paint tonight!

so the dining room isn't too "harvest gold?" that's my concern as it connects to the foyer. It is a little risky, but I didn't want a burgundy dining room like errrybody else, even though that is kind of the color I was thinking of. the color lady suggested gold since we're thinking of leaning towards a sort of art deco meets arts and crafts vibe and are kind of loving tiffany glass light fixtures.

It was really effing hard to find a gold that works with that dark brown, the hallway, and the living room (which we aren't painting).

KA:  HA!!  Orange Cat was my palette inspiration.  ok not really, but now i can claim that she was.  H will love that, as he is not so fond of the cats.  *snort*

The only color I am questioning is the dining room ceiling color. Will it be too dark of a neutral or is it not supposed to be neutral?

Personally, I like white ceilings to lighten the space but that may not work with the vibe you are going for.  I don't know much about arts& crafts.

What is the kitchen color?

They are all pretty colors.

the dining room ceiling has a white medallion in the center from which a chandelier hangs (yes, another effing fugtastic chandelier). So that will eventually go, but I wanted to highlight the medallion, so picked something that would be light (is actually darker in person), but still let that pop.

fivechickens - the kitchen is benjamin moore spring meadow.

angelaa73 - I'm pretty sure our contractor would kill me if I told him I wanted to put up wall paper. Don't worry though, the entire basement is still a lovely grass textured wall paper. Including the ceiling of the stairs down to the basement. The wall paper will live on for a while longer until we stop hemorrhaging cash and our bank stops laughing at us.
