Yes, this room needs a lot of help, a total makeover really. We still call it the playroom even though it hasn't seen Legos, blocks or the Brio train tracks for ages. Since our daughter has moved back home we want to make it a pleasant place where she can work on projects at the big table (which you can't see here) and just hang out. We gathered up some pillows we already had to try out colors and patterns-- I like the bold patterns. Ebay has some great Marimekko fabric and pillow covers but first we have to decide on color. I happen to be a big fan of black and white with a bright splash of yellow or green.
In the spirit of "making do" and spending very little money, the old sofa will get a slipcover (I made a cover for the TV room ottoman, guess I can stitch together a sofa cover); IKEA has some over-worktable lights as well as good storage containers; and we saw a TV stand at Target yesterday for $29. So that's a start.
