Where are the other pix?

Thanks! The rug is actually olive and charcoal in color. Also has some pink/dark salmon. Yes, the dresser is the one that is in the last picture. It would go below the mirror, but I am totally open to removing that mirror to make it look. Would it be bizarre having the dresser partly over the corner of the rug?

Thanks for the suggestions and replies! Also thank you, Ida, for your kind comments. It really is a beautiful house and we do already have a great client base. I'd just like to make it feel that much more like a beautiful, peaceful, comfortable home. Since it's a beautiful house, too, in such a beautiful area of the world, I want to give it the justice it deserves! (If you are interested, the website is www.accommodation-in-todra-gorges-morocco.com We're in the Todra Gorge, one of the most beautiful areas of Morocco and absolutely spectacular for rock climbing and hiking. The guest house is actually just one business of ours -- we also run a rock climbing/mountaineering/hiking/horse riding guiding company!). I do love the colourful walls, and I'm especially partial to blue as well! As I mentioned, though, when he built the house my husband decided to keep the walls as plain plaster so as to avoid unnecessary chemicals. I do agree though that colourful walls definitely add a lot to a room. I think part of the reason I'm struggling is because of the white. However I have found some stunning minimalist ideas that still manage to keep the Moroccan vibe. For the red room with the colourful sofa, I'm having a hard time envisioning what to do as a colour scheme on the bed. It seems like I have to stay with a plain white quilt cover, but I'd like to have some fun Moroccan pillows. I'm really not a fan of the red colour on the sofa so I'd prefer not to go MORE red, but perhaps there's a way to use it in a beneficial way without clashing? I think I'd like to bring in some plants as well. Spikey cactuses and things like this. The guest house is called A Secret Garden and we have a beautiful garden as you would hope for a house with this name.. so to bring plants into the house would be lovely, I think. The added bonus is I can use fun colourful pots!

If you want to stay away from green, then just ignore it in the headboard. It's neutral enough that it won't matter. Put some shams up against it and it will just become background. If you want a print or pattern in the bedding, then I'd start with that. If you are happy with a solid then you don't need to start with that. You can start with something else. For me, that would be art or a vase a pillow or some other inspiration. (IIRC, Candace Olson did a bedroom inspired by a sweater she owned...) Especially in bedrooms, I think about mood. Do you want it to be cheerful? Bright? Moody? Cozy? Relaxing? Sunny? Warm? My bedroom was initially designed around that "Ah" feeling from relaxing and gentle colors...but I've since added a little more vibrancy which came from a Wm Morris wallpaper I fell in love with and used as an accent wall. I don't usually start with rugs only because there are so many to choose from that I always seem to be able to find one that works and it's not the most standout thing I want in the room...I prefer them in supporting roles.
