Q: Hello. I am your follower on Instagram and I need your help with my living room. I need an idea on how to decorate the wall behind my navy sofa and beside the fireplace as well. What color do you suggest for pillows?

A: This is a great room, but you need to add a bit a lot more personality. A few ideas to finish it off: place the plant in the corner on a high table, or get a tall tree like a Ficus and put it in a big woven basket so the plant fills the corner. You can also use the space for a tall open shelving unit for books or a display. hire an electrician to bury those wires under the TV. You will just need to do a little patching and painting afterwards.

You are probably trying to find the ideal coffee table. We suggest a round one, drum style, as you have alot of square angles in the room. The round shape will add interest.

Your accent throw pillows can be any colors that go well with the dark blue and smoky grey tones that we see in your carpet. Saffron, Mustard, burnt orange, dark russet, or claret, would all look terrific on your sofa.

The wall behind the sofa is best for either one large piece of art, or a pair of tall vertical works that are indicated to go together. If you are ready to take the time, hunt down a terrific collection of photos and small pieces of art by young artists that are not expensive. get frames from IKEA, Crate and Barrel, Indigo, Pottery Barn, or West Elm to create a amazing gallery wall or beauty parlor wall.
