Super up close there is this tan/gray pattern of specks throughout the whole curtains which I couldn’t see until they arrived and I was concerned that it wouldn’t look right on the walls; but then I washed the curtains and hung them up and they are the correct length and color for my kids room. You can’t even see the specks once it’s on the wall. They look gorgeous in the room and we are super happy. It has taken me 2 years to find curtains for this room and it’s hard buying online; but it worked out perfectly. They are soft and keep the light out of the room too.
