Tell me do you like these curtains?

I like the 2nd one better but they're both nice. What are double aspect windows? I googled it and it just took me to double hung windows which I don't know what is either.

Thanks Holly, nice to see them so large. The first on is really nice too, like you say if your furniture is light it may be a lot better. :)
 

Definitely the second, Riverside Grasses... with a red wall and burgundy furniture the first one is to wispy, light colored/pastel. It will be totally overwhelmed and disappear or look really washed out with red and burgundy near it. The second one has enough color and presence/boldness to hold its own in the room.

yep except the walls are white.. the one wall that's red is not near the windows.. and my carpet is a light beige.. as well as the sideboard is grey... only the sofas are burgundy ... thanks for your input tho' it's all making me think carefully....I don't usually buy ready made curtains but this year I can't afford made to measure.. at £400-£500
 
I don't think you would go wrong with either. Have you thought of getting the grey ones which are lighter and more summery and buying the cushions too? The grey cushion would echo the curtains and the beige-gold would bring in the colour of the carpet and rugs. I particularly like the cushion with the birds (pheasants?). You might want to add a red cushion too, a pop of colour to tie in with the red wall?

yes I like the pheasants too.. currently as I have the burgundy sofas, I have pink and grey cushions as well as one yellow/gold...they're my summer colours, I've literally just in the last few days taken off all the red winter cushion covers.. :D(y)

Ahh yes! I had forgotten the burgundy sofas. :) It sounds as though both would be nice but I get the feeling you have a preference for the grey? They look fresh and summery. (y)

I do love the second set.. but I feel they look more autumn /winter colours , and quite similar to the shade I have up now..and as I'm looking for summer curtains I think I will probably go with the grey. However, I am going to order both sets and see how they look in real life... , so thank you to everyone whose helped.. (y)
 
Thanks for showing both pairs. I’ll vote for the grey since the intent is to lighten everything up for the summer.

I’ve never thought of changing my curtains for the seasons.
