These curtains are absolutely gorgeous!  And what a creative way to introduce lace into the room and still have blackout characteristics at the same time.  Very creative design and I didn't have to install a double rod system as they are incorporated into the same panel.  I would highly recommend them if you want some softness or a coastal/cottage feel in the room which is what I was going for.  The only drawback is I don't have another room to decorate with them so the one room will just have to suffice.
