Pale pink curtains?

I'm after some grown up pale pink /dusky pink curtains. Not dark or barbie pink, beige or too peachy. Sounds easy but apparently not!

Nothing in any local shops so needs to be online. I've bought 4 pairs so far and two were almost beige, one was a very orangey pink and one was definately lilac, despite being called "soft pink".
It's costing me a fortune in returns!

I've looked at Dunelm, The Range, Terrys, Ikea and numerous others.

So has anyone seen IRL some suitable curtains? I'm after something like these pictures.

Next have quite a few, you could order to store, check the colour and immediately return in the store any not right colour, to save repackaging and sending back in post

Anthropology used to do a lovely pink velvet curtain but I just looked and doesn't seem that they're doing that colour anymore. How many pairs do you need? I looked on eBay for pink velvet curtains and there were some really good quality ones, just depends if you can find the size you're looking for.

My window is wide but not very high (like me! 🤣) so quite restricted on size.

I got fed up looking and trasping back and forth to the post office. They were a lot more than I wanted to spend so I'll have to economise somewhere else. Hopefully the creases will drop put soon and the cat doesn't take a liking to the velvety feel! 🤣

Now to find a complimentary side table lamp...
