I ordered these to cover the sliding glass door in my dining room to help with the draft, but they were too casual for the decor. I hung them in my daughter's room and they are perfect. They help to block light AND added even more insulating properties to those windows (I already had 3M insulated curtain liners on the windows). Only complaint is the wrinkles are very difficult to get out. I ironed them twice (with a towel on top so as not to burn them) and hung them anyway in hopes that the rest of the wrinkles will fall out.
