Living Room Updates & Your Opinion Wanted

I’ve been on the hunt for some chunky mirrored candleholders for a long time, and finally found them for $12 each at TJ Maxx.  I got black candles for them because I thought there was something so sleek and dramatic about pairing the black with the mirror, and I love how it ties in the black leather couch. 
I posted about my finding of the Target x-benches here, and my issue with tying them in here.  I had originally thought pillows with a touch of coral would be the answer to my problem, but I’m starting to think I just don’t like the coral at all in this space.  I would hate to buy pillows to tie them in, only to use the stools in a different spot in my next place, and have no need for coral pillows. 
So what do you think?  Do I try to tie in the coral still?  Or do I tough it out until we eventually move?  Or do I save up to have them re-upholstered in something more neutral?  I looove a good snakeskin x-bench like so;
Yes…snakeskin is neutral.
Your thoughts? 1, 2, 3…GO.

    I say keep the stools the way they are for now. The feel of the room is so dramatic (in a good way! I love it) and the coral stools add a fun little pop!

    Everything is looking gorgeous Hannah! I think I agree with Deanna. Keep things the way they are now and then maybe wait to see how you would want it in your new place. 🙂

    Absolutely adore the look you've achieved here! It's perfectly dramatic and think the x benches offset the dark color scheme you have perfectly! And I love that tray on your coffee table..it's so unique!

    I think the coral looks great. Actually, they'd be PERFECT for my place! I wonder if there are any left at my Target. Your living room is really nice 🙂

    I love how your living room looks. Your chunky black is gorgeous! I'm not really sure if coral pillows would fit all that great. I think it looks great as it is. 🙂
