Love the gingham panels! Thrilled they are lined. I purchased the black/cream, it is not a dark cream, as I was wanting a more white. With the colors of my room, it does appear as I had hoped. They are not heavy as some others have reviewed, it is all in the rod, and good anchoring into the walls, mine as extended further past the window, so anchors are needed with your rods, if into a stud or window sill, it will hold just fine. Perfect accent for my "winter" bedroom!
