I like the gray sofa and the painting. Cant a tv room be a bit dark? Whats happening so far feels cozy . If it was me, I'd be looking for pillows and artwork with the oranges from the art and purple from the rug. Maybe gray curtains, darker like the furniture or to match the walls with roller blind or woven blinds, so you can let the sunshine in or go full on cocoon.

it's a nice room

with 200$, I'd be looking for a light/s on Craigslist/Etsy..a floor one, a table one..you can score something really cool you'll love anywhere and always..and I might be hunting a pillow that will bring all the colors together..not sure your style, but for the sake of showing the colors:

(has your sofa, plaid, rug and even art inside..))

this one is simpler, but cheaper and maybe more user friendly being made from outdoor fabric. won't be as comfy I guess, but also has some nice color combo inside. I like it less because it's too obviously geometrical, next to your plaid, while I like more mix, but again, just to illustrate

that one's quite long..but the colors might work as well

(they have 20% during weekend if you become a member blablah, plus ship free. but obviously there are tons of pillows just about everywhere.)

or. I'd hunt a light..put up art ..and slowly worry about rest of the stuff later

you can start with a rug too, if yours seems off to you, it's just harder to do for 200$. but possible of course.

don't worry about what's over if you like the color. who cares.I like how purple brings out lilac, but then I love both purple and lilac, so..:)

I like the deep purple area rug, but it doesn't read as light and bright with your charcoal sofa. So, the biggest part of your budget right now will likely be an area rug. Because you have baseboard heaters, I'd recommend Roman blinds, which are a relatively easy DIY. The most expensive part will be the fabric, but if you shop around you can find some good deals. Don't forget Craigslist for some great deals on area rugs.

If you buy new, Cost Plus has some affordable area rugs. Here's a tribal style one in jute. It's got some colors to inform accessories but is light enough not to darken your room.

Chindi Safara Rug

A nice geometric option if you decide to do gray on gray. I think wood tones and green would look great with this one.

Morrison Area Rug

Another option with lots of colors to choose from.

Hi, ellenoir. I wanted to share a mock-up of the Morrison rug with
your artwork in your room. It may not be your style preference, but I
think you can see how its palette might work.

Happy birthday I hope you have a wonderful day.

I love purple so I would try to make it work with hints of purple in pillows and art and a throw. Good luck :-)

Good! Go see it in person and see if you like it. happy birthday to you!

Nice find on the curtains! It's always fun to go shopping in your own house.

I prefer the first rug. It's got nice texture and unobtrusive coloring. I think it will be more versatile in the long run, as well.

If you're interested, here's a good story on Houzz that discusses mixing patterns.
