Instead of camo lamps, they should be rhinestone-encrusted.

Those that do not want advice should not ask for it.

I DO want advice, but I don't care if you think it looks stupid. I've made my intention quite clear. If you think it looks tacky then do me a favor and keep your mouth shut.

...With gold lame shades, the shades should have 8" fuschia fringe.

Then you should listen to what the talented people on this forum are telling you, instead of being combative.
I've done fuschia rooms before, and quite well, but with your attitude, I do believe I will keep any advice I have to myself.

I love the modern coffee and end tables--I don't like them mixed with the console table--I also like the first sofa and chair--I'd do white walls, black sofa, chairs, pink chaise, and use the modern tables--add some sheepskin and leather pillows like the ones at scan design.

You are right-
If everything is fuchsia--fuchsia will not pop, it will just overwhelm.

If you want it to pop, only use the fuchsia on the pieces that you want to stand out.
