Decorating Help

OK, so we got these great new couches for our living room.
I am paralyzed with fear...
I really want to make this living room freaking shine, so I need some help in the decorating dept, if anyone has any suggestions.
I don't know what kind of coffee/endtables to get, since I am not keen on glass, and I don't want to put too much brown in the room. I am looking to make a strong statement with this room.

Help!

UPDATE: I've already gotten a few comments about the room. Great ones. I love the idea of an apple green accent color. I am currently in love with green. But, I should clarify, thats not a picture of my living room; thats the shot from the website of the store that we bought them from.
The commenters were very kind, in only saying that rug was too small for the space. That rug is ugg. Yes, I am letting that punny rhyme stay.
I think that I will find a fabric for the curtains, and see where I can go from there with color.
We have an olivey green color in the kitchen, which is just off of the living room, so I want something that won't clash with that color, but is still completely different.
I like the idea of a red, but I think that color might be overdone, and its time might be past.
Decorating is so much fun, but pretty difficult as well.
