The color of these curtains is beautiful, but they are very thin, I guess I didn't realize what 'outdoor panel' means, but I bought them to cover French doors leading to the deck from my mother's bedroom. They are so thin, though, you can see through them at night when she is watching TV (or dressing!). We will have to replace them with curtains made of a thicker material. They would be perfect, though, in a place where privacy isn't so important.
