Need help on living room colors

Ok so the first picture is truly my new color plate-
Window in living room and sliding glass door that is in the dining room.
It feels as though I need to 1) keep the window covering the same in both rooms.
2) I want grommet curtains, no valance or anything else. 3) I want them simple, really like the idea of drop cloth curtains, maybe with a stencil pattern over both? (have never done either, really green around the neck when it comes to decorating) 4) thinking about a picture I found online in one of my many many journeys. Bamboo shade in the middle of large window (like mine), then perhaps curtains on both sides,
As you move into the living room, wall to wall carpeting is a sage green, covered with a moss green shag rug, one of the walls is sage green, the other two walls are a delish mocha, that color started in the dining room and goes through the liiving, down the stairs, in the entryway and down the second flight of stairs. Sofa in living room stays, some ideas to bring the springs and stuffing back to life.
I am willing to part with the green moss shag rug. No idea what I would put down to replace it, and yes it is covering carpet that needs to be replaced!
last picture is the other side of living room, the wall on the left is a sage green, the wall on the right is the mocha carried over from dining room.
I feel stuck with this, any ideas?
