Sheer & Net Curtains

Sheer curtains solve the daytime privacy problem. They blur the view from the street while letting nearly all the light through, so the room stays bright without feeling exposed. Layer them behind heavier panels for a full window treatment, or run them alone where you want the airy, light-filtering look.

Because sheers weigh so little, they are also the easiest curtains to hang in a rental. Tension rods and adhesive hooks carry them without trouble, and our guide to hanging curtains without drilling covers every no-hole method.
