Our house was built in the 1950's and we still have the original windows.  Due to the cold winter, I wanted to do something about the draftiness but not spend too much money.  These curtains are perfect and I find the khaki color to be the perfect neutral for our home.  It still allows a little light in which I enjoy and I think our house feels a tad warmer!

P.S. I did some light ironing when I received them to get out the fold wrinkles and it worked like a charm.
