Other than "ick."
Our place here in Rio has a rockin' view of the Corcovado that seems a shame to obscure, but sometimes the blasting sun requires us to pull the sheers to protect our furniture, and keep from boiling.
When we do, it does have a nice effect on the light. As if there's a soft filter over our living room.
Kinda glow-ey.
His comment got me thinking about how pure and beautiful sheers can actually be. I'm thinking gauzy linen or cotton when you need just a hint of obscurity and/or want a more casual feel.
No matter the season, they always feel...breezy.
I could work it in a living room...With light walls for ethereal-ness
Or dark ones, to keep things from feeling too weighty
In a bathroom, for privacy with light
Or instant cocoon-ness around a bed
I think I might be swayed.

You know I've never given much thought to sheers, but you're swaying me a bit. There is definitely something to be said for letting some glow-y light in. Hmmm.
i was just pondering this last night...i have a small room where i want to maximize the natural light, but I still want some kind of window covering...this might work. i've seen some linen sheers that are kind of an in between solution...might try those. thanks for the inspirations!
great post! I totally agree. Love sheers as well. Also loved your maternity photos. what a special way to remember your time abroad!
Those sheers are particularly divine during the spring and summer months. Great post!
Love sheers- being an apartment dweller I love using them layered with my regular drapes for the privacy factor. I want the light, but I dont want my neighbors seeing me in my skivvies :)
