Cushions, rugs, lamps, curtains?

It's Valspar Dragon Song.

Not cream as I have dogs!

I think these colours work well together- this is one of my saved Pinterest pins. Assuming your sofa is similar to the headboard colour and maybe the floor this colour scheme would work well. I do really like your choices though I have to be honest. I wouldn't have ever thought of the pink! Good call 💕

This has thrown me now cause I like this much more 😂

@Discalupe sorry! 😂 I am a sucker for earthy natural tones. In the past I've tried to mix things up and added hints of colour to accessories (easily removables) but always gone back to (impo) calming earthy neutrals. I am a serial Pinner too for inspiration. It's so exciting choosing these things isn't it but also very challenging on the mind! Good luck!

I love it @Infinitebows

@Aria999 ahh thank you 😊 I could talk interiors all day long but ultimately much of my inspiration is from my old friend Pinterest 🤭

Gold, mustard, ballet slipper pink, turquoise, a mixture

I think maybe this? With some gold and black accessories?

@Discalupe these are beautiful! Very classy and will complement your sofa and wood floor perfectly. Excited for you!

My living room is a similar colour! We have cranberry red-and-beige accents. We up the cranberry for Christmas.

I actually prefer your original choices as they seem less ubiquitous than these....just my opinion as a maximalist, obviously and you should get what you love!

Orange or pink

midsomermurderess · 04/03/2023 00:53

Burnt orange.

Celia24 · 04/03/2023 01:22

Orange or pale green

SkankingWombat · 04/03/2023 01:59

Our living room is this colour. Our scatter cushions are a slightly brighter green and burnt orange.

I like the graphic cushions a PP posted.

You need to match the couch, not the walls.

Dredel · 04/03/2023 07:22

I'd buy any cushions I liked. I just chuck everything I like together.
