We ordered the white sheer. As soon as we put them up, we instantly fell in love with them. They hang and drape nicely over the floor, which creates elegance to our bedroom. They are sheer, but they give you enough privacy and enough light going through them. I love looking out the window through them when it snows and in spring we can see the green trees with the sun shining through the sheers.  They create such a happy and relaxing ambiance that makes me smile lying in my bed looking out the window. The only con is they need to be dry cleaned.
