Hi Diana, thanks for dropping me a line…

Girl, it sounds like you u are in very tight quarters.  No problemo!  We can figure something out for ya!

Can you do a sliding door?  The 2 sides will overlap with each other on a separate track so no need to have a channel into the wall.

If that is not going to work for you put up a fun beaded curtain ( love the metal beads of you are a downtown girl. If you are conservative/femme type, go with the amythest beaded curtains that are faceted! It adds character to the room and not just a piece of fabric.  If you do not like bling then go with a curtain but do a semi opaque sheer so that it looks soft.  There are alot of organzas that are semi opaque that are nice and not heavy looking.  From the sound of your room, a heavy patterned curtain “butting” up to your bed frame is not the answer…in my opinion.

Hope it helps, dear!
