| Please could someone help me as I am having a bit of a mental block over my new living room/dining room. I have painted two walls an olive green colour either side of what used to be a fire place, the rest of the room is basically white. The carpet is oatmeal and the sofa's are black. Any wood is oak. I originally was on the hunt for curtains to match the wall colour, but no such luck and I have now decided to go for a more neutral colour... could anyone suggest the colour that they would go for against the white walls? I need privacy as well so voile isn't really an option. Thanks!! | ||

| I think you should go for more of an statement:-), why not black velvet with nice patterns/texture but if that's a bit too much, just have black velvet at the bottom and the main part in a nice matching green colour as the walls? Keeping it neutral sounds lovely as well, maybe a creamy/beige colour in a silky fabric? Good luck!:-) | ||

Why not consider a linen mix, plain oatmeal in the main curtain with a green print on an oatmeal based fabric as the leading edge or contrast bottom border?
There is so many varying curtain designs available, the main thing is to get yourself a decent qualfied curtain designer that can put together a speciic personal design with your interior in mind. The design will take into many factors such as which curtain heading you choose, whether its a pole or a curtain track that you are hanging the curtains from. Attached image:
