In a cluttered room without curtains

First, let me start with an apology for the condition of these pictures.  My camera is on its last leg.  I'm not sure what's happened, but it refuses to focus.  Also, apparently, I have smut all over the lens.  I have no idea how that happened either.

It has been two weeks since I last posted, but many posts have been running through my head.  Few were fit for public consumption, but even if they were, I was too busy.  

Here is a part of what we've been doing:

Furniture out, carpets gone, clutter disappearing.  

Since this picture, we have textured the walls.  Today, we paint.  We haven't picked the exact shade, but it will be something similar to this:

I'm seriously considering bringing a stick of butter with me to the paint store.  Creamy yellow, not too bright, not too pale.  

Once we've painted, we start installing the flooring.

Here is our living room two weeks ago:

The kids studied the Tabernacle and designed it with couch cushions and sheets.  Poor Doyle, the sheep, was an impromptu sacrifice.

So far, the only pieces of furniture going back in this room are these couches and the coffee table.  I would like to incorporate some red here somewhere.  Ideas?
