Yep, I am in North Carolina, zone 7/8. Crape myrtles are EVERYWHERE here, so I have no concerns about them not growing. I guess one of the questions I need to answer is would I rather keep the crapes and have privacy in 1-2 years, but for only 8 months of the year? Or do I want to move things around and plant a wall of evergreens and not have much privacy for 5 years. If I keep the crapes I may spread them out a bit more. Right now there is 10 ft. between each, but I would like to increase that to at least 12-13ft. I don't really like the look of a crape myrtle hedge where every tree is growing together. Another thought I had was keeping the "miami" crapes trimmed so that they grow a little bit underneath the "natchez" ones, as they are naturally smaller growing anyway. The dogwood I have planted in the photos is in a spot that has about 5 ft. of land between the fence and the retaining wall. Is this too tight? If not, I may move the dogwood and put a crape myrtle there, which may even give me 14ft. between each crape myrtle. Nope I cannot raise the height of my fence at all. My lot is sloped downward a little, so if I play fetch with my dog then my neighbors can't see me which is nice. But if we are on our porch we are very exposed.

Gloss white Corian quarter round or cove. You'll have to have it made, so it's not going to be cheap. Set it in 100% white silicone.

you need more than color. the dark wall isn't the issue. it's everything else. You need some type of headboard or even some decent pillows. some nice bed linens, and please, some type of blind, not those curatins. voila You could run a rod across the entire back and do something like this (these show the window in the middle, but it would work the same for yours. get some woven wood blinds wouldn't hurt to give those night stands a good cleaning or painting, and put things away. what exactly is it you're trying to achieve here? move the bed? as you can see, at least 100 ways to make that look better. not difficult and not expensive.

Sounds weird to me so maybe post a pic of the space and a drawing of what you want to do.Post here in a comment DO NOT start another post. It is also good to explainwht wires you need to hide our office has few wires and they attach along the back of my hubbys desk and are almost invisible most of our stuff is wireless .
