My bed is angled in master bedroom and I want to hang tabbed sheers behind headboard to decorate with a soft look. What is easiest way to hang between corner walls - is there a special curtain rod available or do I need to suspend from ceiling? THANKS!

ceiling mount would be your best option since it may look strange with a 2' gap above your curtain in this scenario..
a wall mount would have to be accomplished with 2 blocks with a 45 degree angle cut on them that you would fasten to the walls before adding a cup style bracket (like a closet rod) for each end.. This would only make sense if you didn't need a center support (approx 5.5' or less) since you have nothing to attach a center support too (unless you suspended cable or whatever)
99% of the hardware your gonna find at the usual bed bath,target, etc will not do for a ceiling mount with tab tops.. You will need brackets with full enclosed circles instead of the usual half circle cups.
attach your brackets to the ceiling with 1/4 toggle bolts
