Pleasant Boulevard Velvet Blackout Grommet Thick Curtains, 52" x 84", 2 Panels

Initially I bought 3 sets (2 panels each set) of these teal velvet curtain panels. I decided to buy 1 more set for one of my bedrooms. I like the rich deep color, thicker fabric that will tone down outside street noise. It is also helps insulate the temperature in my house. Overall I think this is the best quality curtains I ever bought in my lifetime.

I admit that I was not expecting much from these because of the price tag - but they more than meet our needs! I bought them to replace some much more expensive velvet blackout curtains that have unfortunately become covered in mildew (ew!). I selected these because they are advertised as being machine washable. I haven't tried putting them in the wash yet, but I did take a chance on putting them in the dryer for 15 minutes with a damp towel to stream the wrinkles out - which is not what's advised on the packaging, but it worked just fine. I didn't expect these to be room darkening,
