Cheerful look for our "Hawai'ian room," and some things to know if you plan to get crafty with this.
By Purgandi Dracointerfectorem on Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2018
This is absolutely beautiful and cheerful! This purchase is for the bedroom; and we bought two. One is for the window as a curtain, and another is used to recover a headboard that had the framing that we wanted, and not the fabric. I specifically looked for fabric shower curtains to re-cover it, because it is important to me to have a padded one that can be wiped clean. The observations that others made about the lighter gray being more beige are true. However, in a room with a shortage of natural light, it looks gray again. I've ordered a gray blanket and gray pillow shams for the bed. That way this fabric on the headboard, and some lively throw pillows, can be the eye-catching accents against the larger blanket. As a window covering, know that this is light. If you want to have some privacy with light coming through, it is perfect. That makes sense, since it is a shower curtain, haha! I have a shade underneath it for when we'd like to block the light. A thermal curtain could be used underneath, instead, if desired. The fabric on the headboard was dark, so we first put a lighter upholstery fabric over that to be the background for this lighter fabric. That worked well. This fabric does show the texture, it actually looks like this fabric has that texture, now. Our end result is just great. Getting there was difficult. In case anyone is considering a similar project, or any modification of the curtain to be hung in a different way, let me give you the heads up that this fabric does not appreciate being worked with. You'll need to be careful. It is fine when it is all in place, and I have no worries about the curtain or the headboard now that it is done. However, when we would pull on the fabric to tighten it as we were also screwing it into place, it loved to run. Ladies will know that clear nail polish can put an end to that. As soon as we noticed the problem, we used the polish where the screws had to hold it into place, to prevent the running. There are also products in the notions departments that have the same effect, and you would need to use something like that. Fusible web interfacing may do the trick. It was my intention to put grommets through the curtain and to create some more accessories with the rest of the fabric, with the rest of this fabric. However, since I am a bit crazy about washing things like that all the time, and the fabric could run, I did not put in grommets or make pillow cases. Instead, I might actually use it to face the beat-up dresser drawers, as I can seal it on there without all of the pulling that could ruin the fabric. Right now it is kind of fun to consider the options and enjoy the anticipation of more projects, so I can't really say. This pattern is on very well, with clean & crisp printing. I didn't see any errors at all. The fabric also ironed out beautifully. I highly recommend taking a bit of time to do that as it makes a world of difference in how these look. You wouldn't wear rumply clothes, so don't do that to your house, lol! Seriously, this was a great purchase and I am pleased with it. I hope that this is helpful to you; let me know, and happy shopping!

Looks better in the picture
By K Sunday on Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2010
I'm just not crazy about the quality of the product, but, for the price, I can't complain too much. The item is a 100% polyester fabric curtain; I overlooked the 100% polyester description which is admittedly my own fault. The curtain feels/looks a bit cheap, but, again, considering the price-point... The curtain also came with a small dirty smudge near the grommets. I just didn't have time to return it, so I am hopeful that will come out with a run through the washing machine. I would definitely purchase a white liner for the curtain to increase the curtain's opacity. I purchased a clear liner which probably doesn't decrease the cheapy look.
