I don't care about the pics I can only says that you made in successfully and it really looks good. I would to see some pics of your interior designs if you have.
Its up to you which color that you want but I suggest that choose color that is compatible with your flooring and furniture so that they looks good and also a prefect combination of colors are better.
I guess with this situation it is better to remodel or improve your home so that it can take a long time. You can contact a contractors to help you work on this.
I like the idea or you may contact a moving company for much better because they offer a free furniture storage for their services this will ensure that your stuff are good and safe.
Since this is your fist time to work in your new home as a beginner it is better to consult for a contractors so that the improving become successful. And if you are going to move your stuff and furniture I can help you.
Thanks for sharing this actually I'm also decorating my living room on my new house and I want to make it gorgeous so I do my best to work for this but since I have no idea about decorating maybe or it can help me.
