Antique Gold

How do I make a light blue carpet and brown and gold furniture work?

I am moving into a house with a pale blue carpet. But my couch is chocolate brown, my curtains are brown and gold and I have an antique gold mirror and pictures frames on the walls. How do I tie these colors in together? Like what color throw pillows should I use for the couch. Should I buy a big area rug to cover up as much carpet as possible?

Keep what you've got, the way you've got it.
Add some light blue, gold, or brown throw pillows, or combos of these, and some lt. blue candles, vases, and other small accessories.
Gold goes with everything, and brown is pretty versatile too.
