They look better than my mockup (as I had a feeling they would). I haven’t been this pleased with a purchase in a long time! It took two and a half years, but I finally have curtains for the library that I love.

They look amazing – just perfect!
Great addition! I’m curious as to where you get those billy’s buttons and whether they are dried or fresh? I’ve always loved them but can never find them.
They’re dried.
they look fab!
I LOVE them!!!!
ooh, they are lovely. I WAS on the ‘keep the old ones, they look great!’ train… but these are pretty perfect.
They are gorgeous! I was a bit skeptical because I really did love the previous curtains and wasn’t so sure about the mock up. Well done!
Oh they are FANTASTIC!! I’ve always loved your library but those curtains just really make it! Yay!
Murray!
They look fabulous. Great job. :)
They look so good. I love your book shelves, the chaise and the animals! Love the dried flowers too! Beauty!
Just perfect.
LOVE the curtains! Wow!
Would you mind telling me where the chair and ottoman are from? I SO want to curl up in that room with a good read!
Those are from Crate & Barrel.
Wow! Those look amazing! Now I’m second-guessing the ones I just bought…
Those are fantastic! I love them! Are those bookshelf’s from Ikea? We are planning to do a library room eventually and I am keeping notes!
Yep, those are Billy bookshelves and doors.
Beautiful! I love graphic drapery panels! I’m doing graphic panels in my living room/dining room!
What type of camera do you use? Your photos always look great!
Thanks! I use a Canon Digital Rebel XT.
They’re fantastic. I love the room! Great job.
Wow, they look great!! And I love your kitty. :)
Oh no, I missed the black kitty and the dog in your second photo – love them too!! I could not leave them out. :)
Way to be persistent, they really do look perfect.
WOW! The curtains are fabulous- well worth the wait!
Love the cats and dog too- adorable. You are brave to have two cats, a dog AND a baby!
We actually have a third cat too!
Those look fantastic, as does the rest of the room. Wow!
They look sooo good! Great choice!
It DOES take a long time to find the right curtains/window treatment. I am so glad you are please with your choice. They look great!
Love them! They look perfect and so rich.
Wow! That last shot is fabulous. Especially with your perfect model of a cat. :)
Wow, I absolutely love your library! It’s so beautiful and warm! The curtains are gorgeous!
oh my goodness, i LOVE them! such a strong, fun statement.
question: where did you get the little yellow things that are coming out of that fun vase? i’ve been on the hunt for something similar. and does your cat have no interest in them? :) pretty much anything i stick in a vase, my cat wants to snack on, whether it’s real or not.
Those are dried billy buttons, and my cats actually do leave them alone.
LOVELY!!! the yellow and chocolate look so great together in this room.
They are a perfect match!! gorgeous
They look great! Really pulls the whole room together.
They look so lovely! Your photography is wonderful, too. :)
WOW! You’re not kidding – they look fantastic! I don’t remember your walls being so dark in there but they are sharp! Is that black or brown on the walls? I’m guessing its brown…
They’re a rich dark brown – “Afternoon Tea” by Pittsburgh Paints.
Stunning, absolutely stunning. You have great taste.
We love your library and the color brown. Is there anything that doesn’t go with chocolate?? It looks like even pets do!
OMG, They look amazing — right out of a magazine! :) *Swoon!
I love them. They are perfect for that space.
Stunning choice! That room is spectacular! Right down to my favorite black & white accessory – the kitty!
They are perfect! Love it!
Wow those are the perfect curtains! They compliment the room so well in terms of design and tone. Congratulations :) I’m going to be moving into my own apartment soon (without roommates!) so I think I’ll be spending a lot of time looking through your archives!
The library looks great! I love that your cat is posing perfectly and that (s)he matches the curtains!
I’m glad to see mine aren’t the only ones that think ALL the furniture is for them :)
Nicole, those curtains look great! They really look perfect in the room…congrats on finally finding your perfect curtains!

Do the pets normally hang out up there or did they join you because they knew you were taking photos? My cats seem to hang out in the room I am getting ready to take photos of, hehe.
Those curtains look amazing! I also love the Billy Buttons in the Orla Kiely vase (right?!). Anyways, well done. The room, per your usual, looks perfect!
