Help with accessorising my lounge?

February 24, 2011 · 0 comments

I have a small lounge with a victorian bay- not been decorated long but i want it to have a cosy cottage feel, without changing the carpet/sofa. its kind of dull pink at the minute with claret accessories- fed up with them
We have a chimney breast so could paper either recesses or just chimney or both? could i use say a patterned paper then a pin stripe etc in the recesses?
The sofa is cream
the carpet is beige/brown/pinky colour – depending whats on it but neutral enough.
I could paint, paper(prefer some paperto warm it up)
Its the colour i,m stuck with – i like laura ashley kind of decor- not sure how to make it look cottage style though – quite like the cable knit cushions too so any ideas would be helpful.
Oh its a 3 seater and 2 seater so how would i arrange the cushions? how many the sofa has 4 matching cushions also.

Thanks
