Do not buy if you plan on touching the blinds, have children, or if you have pets. The material is very fragile and will look crushed with the slightest touch. I have had these less than a month and they are all damaged and now covering all my windows and looking really bad. I also received two others that came damaged with the same “vein like” lines (unsurprisingly because it doesn’t take much). They are very pretty but they do not last that way.
