What colour drapes to match green chairs?

I have a very neutral looking living room. Our walls are a taupe colour, and we have a couch which is a few shades lighter than the walls. We have two green chairs, that are kind of an olive green. The other furniture in the room is white and a darker mahagony. Right now we have green curtains, and the only place the chairs fit in this room is in front of the window. The greens don’t look good so close together.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
I love stripes draperies cause they heighten a ceiling, add a print, & pull together other solid colors in a room. You can do sheers or heavier draperies, & choose a print that incorporates just your current colors or choose one with another accent color that you can repeat as pillows on the sofa & other small touches.
I found these at Penney’s – you may want to add a roman shade underneath for a softened layered look:

Probably a cream colour
I would have the curtains in a tan and white geometric patten to and some detail but not stand out
