Thank you everyone for all of your input for my living room! I took a lot of advice into consideration and I decided to make new panels. My mom's really good friend Patty spent most of yesterday helping me learn how to sew! It was easier than I thought but it definitely takes a lot of time. She was so wonderful teaching me so patiently. Thank you so much Patty!
I also took my friend Christa and my sister Rachel's advice to add a sheep skin rug (which I already had) under the coffee table. I also decided to keep the coffee table. People were kinda split on whether I should keep it or not but I just love it way too much. It's a fun table because the top spins and I could see our kids someday playing games on it. But who knows I may change my mind someday. : )
My friend Jerushah gave me an amazing idea to paint the chairs white and do a black and white stripe on the chairs. My husband liked it so much that he said that would be "Bad Ass"! I still can't believe he got that excited about something to do with decorating let alone cuss! I will show you the chairs when they are all done!
I added some blue bottles and books to our tea cart.
This is a closer look at the panel fabric.

Love the seating and all the colours! Great job on the drapes.
It looks absolutely fantastic! Love all of the colors.
ok, i love your house. and the framed antlers are awesome. can't wait to see the chairs painted.
SO cute. really ties the room all together
You could also do zebra print on the chairs, to tie the run in. I love the bowl and vase on the coffee table, and also the blue bottles that you added.
The fabric is perfect I think!
