Answers:
This is just my opinion, BUT if you are looking to add blue and white better go and buy a new sofa and accessories OR get a new husband who likes blue and white...actually, you can warm up buy bringing in darker colors of greens and oranges and golds. Every thing from pillows in the darker colors (using either solid or prints even plaids with rich trim) throws in the darker colors with lots of texture, antiqued gold framed prints with green or rust matts, then any accessories using the same colors. Anything can be added or mixed as long as you use the same colors. It can sound scary but try bringing some things home and see how they look, you can always return what you don't like. I always like to go to some expensive furniture stores and just walk around looking at everything getting different ideas and seeing how different things are arranged or grouped together. Then shope places like Kohls, Target, Hobby Lobby even Wal-Mart and Big Lots. Depending on the look you are going for yard sales and thrift shops are a good source also. You would be amazed if you knew where a lot of the top designers shopped. NOT always at the most expensive places because a lot of the time they are on budgets also and the look they can achieve are usually astounding! Another good place for ideas is catalogs and decorating magazines. If you don't want the expense of buying a magazine do like a lot of people and go through them at the stores. A LOT of people do. Can't think of much else so good luck

You are suffering so much! I don't know how you stand it! Try living in a box in the winter and then complain about the color of your couch!
I painted my living room a nice dark shade of orange. Everyone loves it. Try getting some different color shades from the paint store. Take em home and hold them up to your couch. Pick a bunch of different colors. Ones you would normally not get included. I thought my hub would of fell out of his chair when I came home with the orange, but he really ended up liking it.
burn the couch, heck burn the house start fresh or leave it as is for that "charbroiled" motiVe
