At first, I was unsure if these curtains would match my light green dining room. Once I put them up and WOW, what a difference. They are beautiful and match the room perfectly. They allow a lot of light to come in but also prevent people from peeking in.  These curtains are more like a semi-sheer panel than sheer.  The only thing I did not like about the curtain is that it feels rough, similar to that of burlap.
