Yea, putting pictures on CD can be difficult. For me, anyway. Take your picture and save it to your computer. Before you start composing your response, go to the bottom of the 'block' and click on 'go advanced.' That will bring up additional options in the tool bar. I used the 'paper clip' for attachment. This will bring up a window and give you an option to 'choose file.' Double click on that - this opens a file window where you've saved images.
You have to double click on the photo you want and that will put it in the 'choose file' box for you to upload. It really is a hassle.

I edited this after I did a practice run. The above should work

I had to laugh at this.
Have a friend who bought an expensive brown sofa. I think it's all in the shade of brown and whether it works with all the other elements in the room. Hers doesn't, IMO, and it's not even very comfortable. The back and arms are very low and your head isn't supported if you lean back. On the plus side, it's a sectional and she can move the components around but now we're off topic.

Maybe we'll be a pick from the OP since we are all decorating experts LOL. .

It’s chocolate brown and it’s leather, we love it
I’ve decided sage green and beige pillows would look nice, just want one more color maybe
Thinking light gray

We have a brown couch against beige walls. I ordered button tab off white throw pillows for it. It's going to need something more - maybe some smaller throw pillows with a pop of color in them. But I haven't decided on anything, yet.

A friend of mine said light beige light gray and maybe a little bit of green decorative pillows would look nice. Does anyone know what a chocolate brown couch against a red brick wall throw pillows should look like? I also need an idea for a color of lampshade that is also going to be next to the couch up against a brick wall. Any advice would be greatly appreciated !!
I think since you have the red brick wall, it doesn't lend itself to a beachy style. I would think maybe a more boho style, or maybe a cottage style.

If it were me, I'd use pillows more like these...

Regarding lamps...would you consider floor lamps? Maybe stained glass?

I like these ideas. I picked up beige and light green pillows with a little design
They aren’t beachy at all but I think they look really good !
