I have a brown/tan/bronze lamp set...?
Q. I'm trying to coordinate my bedroom and my "inspiration pieces" are my lamp set. They're brown/bronze and have suede tan shades on them. I don't have any pictures of them, but the ones on these pages somewhat resemble them.

The feeling I'm going for is comfortble luxury. I want my bedroom to be a sophisticated retreat that my boyfriend (as it is his room, too) and I can enjoy and relax in together. I have a cream/sage flower bedspread that is nice and matches, but it simply doesn't go with the lamps I'd really like some suggestions from people who are more decorating-inclined than I am. Our room is approximately a 10' to 12' square. We also have a queen sized bed that takes up a good chunk of the room. Any ideas?
Also worth noting:

We have three cats and a pit bull/boxer mix that the fabrics have to be able to stand up to. We have a snake whose cage stays in our room, approximately 4' wide by 3' deep by 4' high.
I'd have to clear any painting with my landlord. We had gone over that subject a little bit a while back and she mentioned wanting to approve the color first, then see the finished product for further approval. (Since it's her place, I can't really argue with that...)

A. 1] ivory or off-white walls
2] Bronze or tan satin or velvet comforter or spread, with matching drapes if possible
3] espresso brown, tan, bronze throw pillows for bed
4] tan suede throw?
5] use a short chests of drawers [ small dresser if it fits ] on either side of bed, instead of night tables
6] add copper or bronze candlesticks, ivory candles
7] copper or bronze framed pic/posters/photos
8] add flowers, or a green plant
9] add a comfy chair to sit in[ tan suede or brown velvet ], to relax or put shoes on
