I would not do painted furniture in that space why not look at glass topped end tables for a bit of a lighter feel and also bigger top .You also need a bigger rug so that the chairs both have rug in front of them. I think the lamps are a bit off for the other things in the space and for sure the art needs to be bigger and lighter colors for sure . The bottom pillow way too big for the sofa in fact I would not do pillows at all on that very small sofa. How about a throw across the back on one side if you want some color , choose a color from the new rug.

Thanks so much for your ideas I plan on making changes after Christmas

Your photo is very dark so it's difficult to see the exact colours however I suggest light coloured accent pillows and a throw for your sofa and perhaps a glass coffee table with black base and I glass side table with marble shelf. I also suggest white lamp shades to brighten the room.

Maybe a bigger brighter rug that at least the front legs of your furniture are on will help?

You're trying to fix the room with your focus on the wrong issue.

The rug is too small for this seating area & the art is nonexistent.

Your rug should be no less than 6x9

It'd help to see the whole space. I see two chairs on the same side without a large enough rug. But, you need separation from the dining group. A large enough rug for those chairs can't work with the dining table. Is there room for the second chair opposite?

Thank you All for your help Incredible information
My second chair is normally on the other side of the room but that’s where the Christmas tree currently is I never even thought about the rug but will look into that as well in the new year

I would paint them an Indigo Blue or even Navy Blue and also the coffee table. Get some color in there.
