I would keep it simple with plain white.

We had a space like that and I purchased a natural roller shade to hang from the ceiling to the floor.

What do you like? Buy that. Don't like your first choice? Return it. Lather, rinse, repeat.

Is there any simpler decision to make than this? Only you and your husband will ever see it. Do whatever you want. This is a really simple decision with no consequences.

Just go to the store and buy something; you could have had it all done by now.

Try spraying it with water and use a blow dryer. Or take it down and iron it.

Yes take it down and iron it.

Admittedly, I totally stink at color ... I like yellow and gray, but that yellow and that gray aren't friends. I'd like to see some color in this bathroom; maybe the pales of the pale blues?

I don't particularly like the concept of a curtain for this closet ... I think that idea works for a larger closet door, but not this one ... this one looks like a shower curtain -- a shower curtain at a summer camp 'cause it's not wide enough to cover the space ... if you absolutely want curtains, I'd consider a set of narrow curtains pulled back. Yellow print maybe? I kinda like that the second pix shows the curtain "behind the wall", keeping the look very simple.

The curtain you have put up is just fine for what you want (hide the stuff behind it).

If you want some advice - I know you didn't ask - but I would paint that yellow wall white.

You have a lovely bathroom and the yellow doesn't do anything for it.

I don't think the curtain stands up to your beautiful bathroom. What about an accordion door? Or bi-fold? If you're set on the curtain, can you mount it lower in the doorway so the bottom touches the floor?

I would do baskets or seriously attempt a relocation of that equipment in your home. No way could I look at that stuff every day. Taking up valuable real estate.

If you read the postings, the curtain is being taken down.

After I have studied where this is (at the entrance to your closet) I would move that equipment to another location, it looks like it is being store there, not hooked up to anything right?

Then add more shelves and as advised above, get some pretty baskets. You could also put your shoes there, folded sweaters etc. It's a very usable space that is not being utilized.

Find another place for the audio stuff for sure then use that spot for purses, and other accessories that don’t need to be hidden. BTW posting another dilemma for the same issue is a PITA too. IMO curtains on closets always look like you couldn’t afford a proper door and in this case leaving it open with attractive items in it is the answer.

If you don't like the curtain, I think the idea of wicker baskets could work. You can drill some holes in the sides of them for the wires to the equipment to go through. Another thing that would help would be to paint the post the same color as the walls to disguise it a bit.
