If the ceilings are 9' that is 108", if you hang 96" curtains then they will not reach the floor. Give or take 2-3" for hanging rod that's still 8-9" off the floor. That is too much. Hang rod as close as possible to the ceiling accommodating the top of curtain (if you get grommets they will stick above the rod but if you have them on rings, they will hang a couple of inches below the rod.

You have 108" of wall to work with. If you hang your curtains on the current rod position you will need curtains 102" They do not make 102" curtains ready made.

If you move the rod up 2" higher to accommodate the curtain top above the rod you will need 106" to reach the floor. They do not make 106" curtains. You need to measure from the floor up to 96" and see where that is on the window. They will be too short. Then measure from the floor up too the ceiling 108" and see if you can hang a rod there. if the rod is right next to the ceiling then you need to get curtains that the top of curtains hang just below rod or even with rod and 108 will work, if the curtain tops are an inch or 2 higher than rod, then you may have to hem and inch or so. 96" curtains will probably not work on those windows no matter where you hang the rods. Do some measuring tonight and we can see where we are.

Since your wall are white with a gray shade, I assume you mean that the walls are light gray? and the sofa is light brown. I usually recommend that you stay as close in color as the walls if possible. But let me see if I can find some curtains that will be neutral and still compliment your brown sofa.

I was looking at the windows and it might be that you will not have to replace the sheers if they are hidden behind the furniture and the panels hide the sides. I cannot tell in photos is they come below the furniture.

These are nice looking curtains also and are on sale at Penneys. The comes in several color combos. Take a look and tell me what you think.

Sorry, Ryan ............if the ceilings are 9', then you need 108" curtains. Check Overstock for drapery panels.

Question about number of tones: is sofa color in same color family / about the same as tile?

Light grey walls.

The length of the sheers on sliders look about right length, what size are the sheers, you might try taking one off the door and try on one of the Windows to see how it fits then you might get a better idea of length needed for Windows.

Since all your surfaces are a solid color, I'd go for curtains with a print. As you said, you're a single guy so you want to bring more modernity and chic style into your place.

Unleash the curtains on the slider and push them all the way to the ends of the rod.

Go khaki/beige, or better yet, burlap on the curtains. You could use some texture here if you're going monochromatic.

Since you need a custom length and I'm assuming you don't sew, you'll have to find someone to alter any curtains you buy anyway. So just buy the yardage and find someone to hem the panels for you. Then hang them from your rods with rings and clips. It will be cheaper and probably look better than anything you buy.

I'm not a big fan of sheers, but especially for a space you want to look masculine. How about woven wood shades instead of curtains and sheers?

Maybe a Banksy canvas?

Has anything posted struck a cord with you?

Ryan, glad to see you finally returned. I worked pretty hard on your room and was worried you'd never see it. It seems everyone likes it but you.

Ryan, the only sheers I left were the ones on the slider. Take them down, and double up on the curtain panels so you can actually close them if you need to. Otherwise, leave them open as much as you can.

I like these for the room

A lamp like this for buffet by table

Brad, end tables are from overstock.com ITEM# 14288172 so are floor lamps, if you want add'l item numbers, I can post them.

Don't go to wimpy on end tables, and don't add any more dark wood. This one is a champagne color with glass top and shelf. I exchanged the lamp you didn't like for a wood tripod lamp.

That would be good. Don't get matching ones and use 2 different lamps also. Adds more interest to the room.

Here is an update of what I have done so far.

Just a mention that I see geometric lines: tiles, chair backs and cushions, and now the tidy window coverings -- what's next?! Besides more holidays!? :)

Thanks everdebz! I definitely want to add throw pillows when my dog stops thinking that they are toys haha. I am also looking for a centerpiece for my table, and possibly something for the top of the alcohol cabinet.

Looking good so far, Ryan. I'd move the plant from the corner to the space between the sectional and dining room and replace it with an arc lamp that reaches toward the center of the ottoman.

You chandelier is about a foot too high. Do you have enough wire to lengthen it? You can get extra chain from a hardware store.

Since there's a window behind the buffet, you could use something tall and something wide on top. Let me see what I can find.

Just noticed the ceiling fan, so nix the arc lamp. I'd still move the plant. Put larger and fewer items on the buffet, lower (and center) the chandelier.
