I love the way these look in the room, our master bedroom!  We had a street light just outside these windows and the blackout function works great.  The colors couldn't be better with the existing new colors I have just chosen this summer.  Even my husband gave me compliments on the choice.  We made the windows wall facing the front of the house the accent wall with a wall of these curtains.  I am so proud of them and my choice of wall/window covering.
