May have fucked up- warm cherry wood dining table and dark wood floors. Suggestions?

I’m trying to find a picture of anyone who has made dark brown floors work with a warm cherry huuuuuuge table. I can’t figure out what search terms to use to get google/pinterest to understand wtf I’m talking about.

Does anyone have search terms I can use or pictures of cherry wood not looking foolish next to dark floors?

They’re supposed to be cinnamon rolls. I may not have had live yeast either, but I did put what I thought was live yeast in. At this point I’m baking them for science, because it’s the middle of a snowstorm.

I spent hours on these poor bastards. Godspeed to the world’s saddest cinnamon rolls, see you in thirty minutes.

edit: I was posting these live in the thread as this was unfolding, but for the newcomers here are the results + further shenanigans https://imgur.com/a/qDeMWmr

The geniuses in this comment section have solved the mystery. I truly didnthaveeggs’d these poor bastards:

  1. I used iodized salt instead of kosher salt. u/CrashUser was the one to figure that out from the fact the results tasted salty. Apparently using too much salt (and idolized is more compact than kosher so more salt per scoop) kills the yeast. That poor yeast died a redditors death.
  2. I used salted butter instead of unsalted, compounding the problem (there is a compound butter joke to be made there somewhere)
  3. I didn’t adjust for elevation at all
  4. And of course, no corn starch
