I'm going to paint my living room which is all neutrals, dark leather furniture and modern cream accents. We have celery green curtains and I'm looking for a color scheme I can use as a tool to finish painting and introducing more color to the room.
I used to have a designers handbook in college like this, full of color combinations that work. Where can I find examples of colors online?

I love their colors.. and it gives the names so if you visit the store you can let them know the color name and they can look it up. :)

Your living room sounds beautiful~Love those colors. I really don't know online where you could browse, though I would suggest looking at online catalogs, such as Pottery Barn, Restoration Hardware or Pier One. My living rooms sounds a lot like yours, though my walls are a moss green, with dark leather furniture, and cream accents. I chose a bright coral color to brighten things up. I used coral pillows, a large clear vase in the corner with coral and cream flowers/foliage, and a large framed print of coral foliage on the wall. With your colors, I think a cool teal blue would be beautiful. You could also go to a paint store and browse paint swatches to get some ideas. It's free and you can take them with you. Anyway, good luck!~

Sounds like you have some 'pottery barn' style. I love this look! Here is a good site that helped me...
http://www.sherwin-williams.com/do_it_yourself/paint_colors/
you can look at the color swatches etc.
If you have a certain kind of paint you can try their website also...like Martha Stewart, or paint store of your choice.
A really much lighter celery color on the walls would be really nice...
