I adore the pattern on these and absolutely love how they look! I was really disappointed when they arrived and I realized that they werent room darkening - when I put my hand behind the curtain you can see it. However, I realized after the fact that these are top curtains and the issue was actually me not paying close enough attention. Im still deciding if Ill under the curtains for under or if Ill put some blinds in. Either way, the these look fabulous and Im happy with them.
