What paint to match with green speckled countertops in a kitchen??

I want to paint my kitchen and i have these green countertops that I cannot afford to replace so I need to match them. I have trim along all of the walls and the top half is white the bottom is what I would like to paint and leave the top half white. My cabinets and appliances are stark white. Any suggestions? Also you can see the dining room and living room from the kitchen-both of those rooms have wainscotting with a light buttercup color on top and white on the bottom. I am trying to go for a tuscan/french bistro style. Also my table and chairs in the kitchen are cast iron with light tan cushions! Thanks

    How about the same color green that's on those counter tops? If it's too bold of a color, then go for a lighter green like sea green or light olive or something.

    I would suggest you use a neutral beige. Green, beige and white all coordinate together, and are appropriate for the theme you have in mind. Also any art work you put on the walls will go well with beige. Metal art is in right now and I think this could be an option for you, if you choose. It will look fantastic, and will mellow out the green.

    Check out Laura Ashley Sand 3, from Lowes. It's a warm neutral color that looks beautiful with greens and white, and it will complement the yellow from the DR. I have a similar color scheme in my home.

    You could then introduce a few dark red accessories to make everything POP!
