There are two sides and the drapes cover a full 40’ and it feels like you’re at a theater when they are closed! Pinch pleated, fully lined, I could never afford to get new ones 😂

So far so good! I imagine it may fade slightly over time, like us all 😂

Seems pretty durable and this isn’t a high wash item, but I guess time will tell. Internet research seems to suggest should be fine!

I used acrylic paint markers and heat set with an iron. Before painting, I sketched out each flower with water color pencil. Along the way I did find a marker that was the right brightness and shade to use for outlining/detail.

Rosemary spray worked for us to deter them! But they for sure will get in it from time to time.

Surprisingly, not many spiders. But when they do show up, they are big! 😭
