- http://www.wikihow.com/Make-Beaded-Curtains - Can not be used on an uncovered patio - door image painted on both sides - Louvered door ¦Ê¸­ªù - The beads are sturdy and are beaded with linked wire instead of thread so, yes it is made well. - It came in a long box and was not tangled up and was ready to hang. Would highly recommend this product! - doesn't look cheap at all and is heavy duty heavy duty - he only downside is that if you go in and out a lot where it is hung sometimes the bead strands stick together at the bottom and you can get caught up in it or, I imagine, even worse, rip the whole thing off the wall. - This beaded curtain is actually make of 3 inch thin rods of wood/bamboo like material and painted. The rods are strung together with wire looped on each end and looped together. The rods tend to not hand strait and also get caught in clothing. I ended up not using it. - not recommend if you have small children though - This is a very cute beaded curtain. And, if placed in a dark hallway, it would be as pictured, but I was placing it between kitchen and laundry room and the daylight shows through too much to see the design. Plus, it is wider the the door frame, so the handle section is lost behind the wall. It is also not long enough and sits about 6 inches off the ground instead of just a couple. - ++++ Need not too bright to have the design to see - But, very cute and if you use it for a stairwell or something dark behind it, you'll be pleased. - If you want to keep a door open for a room such as the laundry room or create cool art on the wall, you will love this hanging-bead creation. I'm very pleased with the look. I'm sure my friends and family that stop by will want this product too. It is really cool looking! - It looked so good in picture. However, the material is very flimsy. Some strands broke off before even hanging it up. Only looked nice while door behind it was closed! Otherwise, had no real "substance." You walk through it once, and strands follow you or get caught up on you and break off! - Love the curtain! Had to cut it to size, but super easy to do. +++++++++++++++++++
