And two bonnets $15.99 each plus shipping. The curtains are approx. 39" wide x 40" long. You can use one panel per window. Or you can use a set for a window. They look awsome tied back with jute, which will be included. You could also hang the curtain on jute instead of a curtain rod for that really prim look. The bonnets are approx. 19" long and have been coffee stained for that old timey look. I ship to the US only and accept Paypal only. (note the fabric the curtains are made of, the first curtain, is the cinnamon brown with the blue flowers, the second curtain fabric is beige with tiny blue print throughout) If you need to contact me you can scroll to the bottom of this blog and there is an envelope that says email on it, hit that link).P.S.
