Glory to Gauze
Another tip from Shyama, who should be elevated to guest editor status or something. She praised these gauze-y white curtain panels from Umbra:
Not a fan of the curtain hardware shown here, but I see the teeny tabs on a simple rod like any of these from West Elm. Plus at 86" long (AND $14.99 EACH!) they'd make a fantastic canopy and bed hangings. Check out Tom Scheerer's website for inspiration -- love that modern metal bed in the 'Bahamas Veranda House.' I need a Bahamavention!!

Thank you for finding the perfect curtains for my new apartment! I have been looking for something VERY simple and white--perfect. I think I also have a big crush on the Bermuda Veranda house.....
Very similar, and $5 cheaper than the Umbra curtains, is this set from Ikea (http://tinyurl.com/33m5ql). They're 98" long, so you can hem them to any length you want (even easier with the iron-on hem tape they provide). I have them hanging in my apartment, and they're rather nice.
Dang, these are a find. Soft and billowy and soft and billowy...why can't I get this mantra out of my head? $14.95 - is this a typo?
Amen! curtain rods are a great way to spice up the room aside from the fact that, they're primarily functional too =D
