It's beautiful. I would also go with an orange-y deep red.

Take the orange-y red color out of the paisley pillow.

On the curtain question, neutral is usually best, which brown would be fine for that (but not toooo dark). A picture on the wall and a throw rug could be your accent color. And you can keep ALL the pillows on the couch you get to check!

I would do blue as an accent color. Too much nuetral and brown would be darkening the room more. You could always get blinds for now and forgo the curtains. Bring a rug with more color and depending on taste Lowes has a lot and look online also. As for the pillows you can always take one off the sectional and put it on an occasional chair off to the side. For right now I would do the blinds and go with with shutters/2" plantation blinds or if wanting something different you could alway go with matchstick blinds. Color would depend on if you want to darken the room or want something to blend in with trim on windows. I would not do any other throw pillow til you found the occasional chair. Buy a plant and some blinds with maybe toppers or curtains for insulation check JC Penney online for curtains and toppers. Then relax and enjoy your hard work it looks great.

Sorry for late reply. The flooring is SwiftLock and it was on sale for 1.39 / square foot. I did have it installed by someone, just because I didn't have the time.

I think I'm going to go with a red for the other color.

Thanks to everyone for the help, as I am not very good at this sort of thing.
