Use drapes or verticals the same color as the cream wall
i would look for something cream background with just a hint of burgundy in it, this would also be a good place to add an accent colour....perhaps teal or grey
I also think you need some colour, teal/green or something stripy/ patterned,combining some of the colours plus a third. Make sure the drapes just just cover the corners of the window ie don’t obscure the light (without looking strange).
Like Thea, I'd choose something with three main colors: burgundy, a soft neutral color like beige or gray, and a third color. Perhaps you could pick up the third color from something else in the room, such as the wall decor or a vase, etc. I wouldn't rule out something with additional colors, as long as the burgundy stands out to draw it all together with your furnishings.
I would use a double rod system with a sheer cream curtain close to the window and use a combo color heavier curtain with tie backs on top
I J Nk.
If I you sew I would make drapes and use sheers as suggested above. Make your drapes and pillows to match. My living room has 3 tan walls which matches the carpet and a burgundy accent wall. My sofa is a light sage green and I have 2 burgundy recliners. I was lucky and found beautiful toss pillows with both colors plus some pale yellow. What started my color palette was a framed picture of irises. Good luck!
