The window absolutely needed a curtain for privacy and the sellers had left an old faded curtain there when they sold us the house.
Of all places I found really inexpensive gold curtains at walmart for less than $10 a piece. They even had a bit of gold shimmer to them in person. The only issue with it was that they sold them in very long lengths or a valance that would have been to short. So I bought one of the longer curtains and had my mom help hem it up so now it is at the perfect length.
