Thank you for your suggestions everyone. I am going to layer it with another solid rug and use it in the living room. My living room neds a bit of colour and I thought this would be perfect. Breaks my heart to think that I may have to put it elsewhere.

Hi Ni, I just thought of something....did you say you planned to do the stencil motifs on the window wall? If so, I am thinking they will be mostly hidden by the curtains. I wonder if it might be better to stencil the long wall that is on the right side of the room when looking toward the window. I could see this being a pretty backdrop to the prayer box (I think that’s what you called it?) and your wood cuttings. Then maybe the opposite wall (the one with the kitchen doorway) could hold a large piece of art?

we do in guest bedroom,, but not sure will go with colors I have picked out, and the great room is a vaulted ceiling ....I guess we will just have to see...our house is being built and will be very open..not alot of wall space.

Basics first, please get rid of any plastic furniture like that chair. secondly all table tops need to be cleared of little mirrors, table clocks etc. just place three most loved items of your choice ! Arrangement can also be improved the table could come on the side and bed could be centred a bit better (along the window behind it). Walls can be painted a neutral shade like light beige with a rug of your choice on the floor (contrasting- like red so that the pink curtains could go with it)If you could change the curtains then the best option would be to pick a solid colour of your choice and a matching rug (blue, red etc whichever is your fav colour but please avoid printed cutrains)
