colors to pick .. what colors should i pick

So i been lookin at the shades of the living room color and its really buggin me. You'd think i would know what colors to pick as Im lookin for a relaxed and comfortable look. I just cannot decide. I think its the lack of new patterns to work with. The couch is very dreary. The couches were from my mother in law and they were dreamy and flowery. The flowers are turnin a dingy brown due to cats and dogs and whatever else. Sand.  So Thats my 1st dilamma. The 2nd would be the lack of funds to purchase these extra patterns and couches.So i feell stuck. Im gonna use the cloth i got through kijiji theres a mix and match of colours. So the fall cleanup is starting. The house will be closed up soon enough. Im having my own purge of stuff. We have so much clutter its crazy. So thats today.
