Here is the room:

This room, despite the two large windows, is still really dark. And the couches are a darker brown than appears here. Walls are beige. So I need to lighten it up. I'm going to get an off-white blanket or two. But I need help with the throw pillows.

The rug & drapes are both a shade of light blue that borders on grey, with some yellow. I'm new to decorating and was thinking of sticking with pillows in the blue/yellow/creme colors, while mixing up large prints, small prints, and solids. Some ideas I had are here: http://pinterest.com/samanthariegels/for-our-monterey-colonial/

Is this too boring?

What would an interior decorator do to jazz it up?
