FADFAY Pastoral Style Adjustable Balloon Curtain Living Room Shade Curtain for Living Room Set,Off-White，1 Panel

These are gorgeous! I'm a picky person, and after reading a ton of reviews, want to give a few tips to help others out - and thanks to others that did so!The curtain will seem wrinkly, loose threads here and there, etc. At this price point, with the crochet and cut-outs, that is to be expected. I thought I would have to wash or steam before hanging but decided to hang first to see if i needed to return it, and I'm so glad I did as the fabric was very forgiving!I bought two panels so that I could gather them a bit (so about double the width of my window) and decided to hang using clip-on curtain rings since I have a DIY wood "valance" that wouldn't make using a rod very easy.In other reviews, I see confusion about what's included in the package and how to get a balloon/gathered effect so here's my take:1. You can hang these curtains a variety of ways, including hanging straight down, tying back to the side of a window, or "ballooning". The package includes a little ziplock bag of pieces that allow you to achieve these effects, you will not use everything. Included is a set of metal curtain hooks (you only use if you are hanging from a drapery rod that requires those fasteners), 4 plastic C rings (you will only use if you balloon/gather), and a crochet fabric strip and single metal hook (you will only use if you do tie back).2. Just FYI for those that don't know - "ballooning" is a method of hanging curtains. It can be done with any lightweight curtain by sewing a few rows of small round rings on the back of the curtain and gathering them together with a larger "C" ring, creating a ballooning effect. Rings for this purpose are sold at fabric stores (although technically you could use any type of rings) so if you lose any rings, you can easily replace them.3. The curtain you will get already has the little plastic rings sewn on back, 4 vertical rows of 5 rings each. When ballooning, you will use one big C ring per each row of sewn-on rings. You have the option of gathering every row so the curtain hangs at an even length all the way across, or only gathering the middle rows (like in my photo) to get a swag effect. Basically, how many rings and which rings you use to gather will be up to you so you can get the look you want.4. To gather/balloon the curtain: Hang first with the sewn-on rings facing the window. Take a "C" ring and slip the bottom portion of the C into the bottom sewn-on ring. Bring the C up to the next sewn-on ring in that vertical row (you'll be pulling up the curtain as you go) and slip the bottom portion of the "C" into that ring, then go up and do the same to the next ring, and so on. If you find the rings keep slipping off, simply smooth the fabric down around the ring as you go (you'll adjust later). When you are at the last/topmost sewn-on ring, slip the TOP portion of the C ring into it and gently let go of the C ring and allow the curtain to hang on its own. Now do the next row - being careful when lifting the curtain so you don't accidentally knock rings off the previously gathered row - can be annoying lol. When you've done all the rows you want, stand back and start poking and tugging at the front of the curtain to create the desired ballooning effect.Note: Some people have mentioned using the string in the middle of the decorative cut-out to gather the curtain (by pulling the string). This is NOT how you gather/balloon - it is simply a part of the decorative cutout and although it worked for a few people, it simply isn't how it is done, and you will ruin your curtain.Also note: if you aren't used to ballooning, you may pull the curtain out and think it's junk. Just move forward by hanging and using the C rings to gather as described above and in other reviews, and TRUST (ha). It really was super easy and took all of 5 minutes!

I like fabric, design. Looks very country. Perfect for bedroom with my cats. .

These are so very pretty -it took me reading other reviews and then tweaking them a bit, but I hope this helps in your decision-my kitties love sitting in this window and would leave hair all over longer curtains, so I needed something different-I love the balloon effect so much -in this case, I used three panels, which, yes, adds up, but I think it’s worth it I also used one of circles in the fabric to bunch the material a bit more for fullness -it’s my favorite so far and I change curtains a lot -

This is a beautiful product, if you want to keep it down. There are supposed to be four rows of rings to get the perfect ruffles when you hook in the back. Mine only had three rows. Two on one side, and on on the outer of the other side, do it ruffled really weird and I'll have to sew some rings on myself. Down is perfect, but look out for a missing row of rings. I had it for my space for a bit before opening it, waiting on a curtain rod, so I don't expect to be able to return. Just make sure you look!

The balloon curtains look high end. Fabric is soft, beautiful detail and great quality for the price. Exactly what I was looking for ( and I searched a LONG time ) The windows I purchased the two balloon panels for are side by side, so my initial concern was that the detailed embroidery would not line up, and would look awkward side by side. l was immediately impressed ( when hanging them) that there were no issues at all. The only small issue was having to reinforce the small threads used to place the hooks in ( to create the balloon effect). Not a huge deal breaker, and very easy to do. I have gotten so many compliments on these gorgeous balloon panels. I would definitely order again from this retailer!

This is a really pretty balloon shade, a bit pricey, but really nice quality. It came with a tie back, and drapery hooks, which I didn't want to use in my kitchen. As the picture shows, they do run long ( I had to raise my drapery rod, which was a pain; I have only recently come out of a cast for a broken wrist! So I mean literal pain. 🙄)After I got all five loops in the clip ( 4 of those were included as well, and the clips do not close. ) this was the end result. A little hint/warning, though: as I said the clips that hook through the sewn on loops in the back do not have a clasp for complete closure. I took small pieces of cellophane tape and wrapped it around the large clips so that the sewn loops don't slide off the clip. ( Yeah, that happened until I "fixed" that little problem. ) For the money, the clasp/clip should have a way to fasten and quick fixes shouldn't be necessary. I would recommend the shade, though. It's pretty enough to make up for the hassles I encountered. But on GP, I had to give it 3 stars for those reasons and the way it arrived. It came in what looked like a big clear zip lock bag. Chances of theft and or damage rise exponentially with this sort of " who cares" packaging.( Also, clearly they're not at all blackout. I just took the picture in the evening. ) Still a pretty curtain. Hopefully the other 2 that I ordered will be packaged properly and arrive in good condition.
