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.

Manvisudan, choosing a rug more along the lines of what I showed will afford you the opportunity to add some fun and interesting pillows to your silver ones. Its easy to change your pillows when you want a different look. The rug, on the other hand, is a bit more of an investment. Let me know if you would like pillow and art recommendations :)

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.

Definitely bring the tapestry down closer to the sofa. If you are keeping that above the sofa, your rug should be less busy. pick a color from it and use that on your rug. You've got a lot of pretty patterns in that room already, keep the rug less busy.
