Finally heard back about the desk. Hopefully picking it up on monday. It's bigger than what the pics look! 45" wide. Not looking so good for the chairs. Ah well, one will show up that's meant for me. maybe. :) I'll have to take pictures of everything once i get it. Not sure where i'm going to put the spindle table if the buffet goes the foyer. A lot of wood real close together on the same wall. I could maybe put it in the LR on the other side of the couch near the lamp everyone says i should get rid of. Check out this. CL $50. buffet is 50" this is 40 something.. too much wood? I know i'm all over the place with my thread(s). Sorry, i'm just excited!

As apple pie said, your rug is the focal point, so for window treatments I would do a border drape…off white and preferably brown border if you can find the right tone. That will bring a darker color down to meet the rug…you find better than this…but it is the idea.. Maybe just two small lumbars on the sofa, but at the arms not the back were there is already lumbar support. Off white and brown chairs…from Anthropologie. Last a chunky fab throw for the sofa. ..

I recently purchased two accent chairs......the couch that I would like to get is a few inches shorter than the chairs........will it look goofy to have accent chairs that are taller than the couch?

Thanks for your comments, I'll address them individually below: decoenthusiaste: Every day it's just me and my husband. TBH, we don't use the LR a lot on weekdays because we're really busy. I use the side part by the bookcases or catlandia for yoga at night. Sometimes we watch a little TV at night. We entertain a little, but usually no more than than 6-8 people total. Most often when we entertain it's another couple over with us. The fireplace is wood burning, and requires work and tending, and you really can't get super close to it because it gets very hot. We love it though, but only use it about 6 months per year. I suppose the tv is more of the focus than the fireplace in some ways. I don't love the bookcases either, and we plan to replace them at some point. We set the room up the way we did because I feel like having a sofa that's parallel to the closets creates a hallway of sorts, and sets the room up better than this big space that needs more anchoring. I'm not sure if that makes sense, but the previous owners had it set up the way you described and I really hated the way it looked and felt. it made that left side of the room feel scrunched up against like that 1/3 of the room and made the rest of the space feel weird. because of where the fireplace is, almost in front of the front door, it makes it an awkward space to gather in front of. but I could be completely wrong here and I want to keep an open mind before we purchase anything, which is why I'm here! Also, side note, my husband is extremely particular about leather and only wants a leather sofa, and very specific kinds of leather, but is willing to compromise on side chairs with fabric.
