Help with pillows, rug, curtains for living room... *UPDATED* with things I found on jcpenney.com PG.2

We just got the metal wall hanging and candle sconces... now I need help with what color pillows, curtains and rug to get. I'm thinking maybe an ivory? But I also maybe want to add an accent color...

We will have white crown moulding (next week!) and most of our furniture is black.

Don't mind the mess... and sorry the pics are so bad.

The pillows on the couch now are just temporary.

Are your walls a light sage green?
Maybe some light sage colored pillows to go with your brown striped pillows?

Those pillows aren't staying...

Yes, the walls are a light sage.

Re: Help with pillows, rug, curtains for living room...

You could do dark sage pillows and maybe a lighter sage curtains or sheers. or if you like Burnt Orange, that would be a nice accent color. Or like my bathroom when I did the medium sage walls with the lighter sage & light slate blue towels. So the light slate blue could be your accent. Pics in my album of the bathroom.

And I love how your LR is turning out. Beautiful! The the stuff on the walls.Chat Icon

I would bring the paint sample to the store and compare it to different shades of colors. You don't have to stay with green you may be able to use an accent color . A red or a blue might work but it depends on the shade. Fire Engine red may not work. But you may decide you want to stay with the creams and greens pallate. It's totally up to you! I would defintately bring the paint sample with me shopping.

This is the hardest part... figuring out all the decor.

I'm not even sure I like the metal wall hanging... DH does but I guess I have to get used to it, I don't know.

Re: Help with pillows, rug, curtains for living room...

How about any of these color combos.

The Shaker Beige is sort of your couch color, the black you said is most of your furniture, the Nantucket Gray is your walls and the 4th color is the accent color. The Burnet Orange was the best one I could find, you get the idea. I really like the slate blue, but that is JMO.

Exactly what I was going to reccommend. You can do sage greens and ivory. For the accent rug i would so something contemporary since your couch is so modern looking.

Thanks! I love the copper color.
Now i'm starting to rethink the decor on the wall.
I have a really nice painting from Chile that has the copper and blues in it that would be great there instead of the metal thing.

Hmm..
