Was pleasantly surprised by the quality of these curtains, which are more translucent than super sheer. Putting two on one bedroom window will still allow a lot of light in, but will also provide privacy. This ecru color is gorgeous, tends to go toward a very pale grey. Blends in perfectly with my neutral/sand decor. Also, having tab tops makes it very easy to open and close the curtains fully, without having to re-even up the gathers like on most sheers. Love them.
