I am not sure the prior reviewer is talking about the same curtains.I ordered the Island Breeze Trompe l'oeil window art by Saturday Knight, and I think they are just as per the photo, and very attractive and fun to have!They are also made of medium weight cloth, not at all flimsy.
I recently decided to build 10 feet of wall shelves into one wall of my home office, to use for general storage.I wanted to cover up the shelves so the room looked attractive, but how to do this inexpensively?Then I got the idea of putting up a curtain rod, and hanging the trompe l'oeil curtain on that rod.Because the shelves were longer than 6 feet, I just put a color-coordinated shower curtain on either side of my "Island Breeze" curtains to provide full coverage. It looks beautiful!!
(Note:Because of this use, I knew I would need to move the curtains back and forth frequently and easily, so I decided to put holes/grommets into the curtain so that I could use shower curtain hooks to hang it up on a pole, instead of using the built-in slot that was intended for a regular curtain rod.)
I would most definitely recommend this as a fun way to liven up a room.
I purchased this curtain to hide an open closet space where I store all my extra platters, serving ware and dishes.I thought it might look too cheesy, but my husband thought it looked good and the tropical design fits our tropical interior design.An inexpensive way to fix the problem, and the center split gives me easy access to my stuff.I may buy another one to change out as the seasons change.
Buy Island Breeze Trompe l'oeil Window Art Now
We were a little apprehensive of ordering a curtain that is suppose to duplicate a relaxing view of the ocean and terrace from your sliding glass door. Well let me tell you -IT DOES! What a refreshing ambiance to come home to we put it on the west side and the sunset rays brighten it up every evening and during the day it is up lifting to look at when I go into the room. Buy it!

I would have given this 3 stars instead of 4, but it looks so pretty! The cons are that the rings they give you are cheap pieces of crap that break VERY easily and have to be replaced. The covers for the rings are not hemmed closed on the end so when you take them off and put them on the new rings, they start to fray and unravel. I suggest "fray check", a fabric glue that lockes the threads together like super glue. No sewing required and the covers bunch up on the ring, so you won't see the ends (makes the fabric that you use it on slightly darker sometimes). Also, the liner is VERY flimsy and easily tears. But I just bought another one and that was that. If this didn't have those cons I mentioned, it would have recieved 5 stars.
