Recommended cleaning
· Recommended cleaning instructions for each fabric.
· Please note wash the curtains only when they are advised washable. Don’t wash if the lining, trims and embellishments aren't washable or colourfast.
· Remove hooks, rings and hardware before washing.
· Professional dry clean, hand wash or machine wash as instructed.
· Don’t overload the washing machine. Don’t wash if the curtains are too large for your washing machine.
· Before the curtains are completely dry, remove them from washing line or dryer (on a low setting).
· Iron the curtains on the reverse side.
Daily care
· A gentle shaking when the curtains are drawn closed at night will prevent dust and dirt from lodging in the fibers.
· Also you can use a handheld vacuum and soft brush to clean regularly. Always make sure that trims, buttons, and other embellishments are secure before vacuuming.
Shrinkage Consideration
· For washable fabrics shrinkage of up to 5% may occur if washing instructions are followed.
· To reduce this possibility, washable fabrics should always be hand-washed, drip dried and ironed in a lengthways direction before fully dry.
· Shrinkage in any fabric can be minimised if your curtains are dry cleaned.
Sunlight Considerations
· Some windows are exposed to more sunlight than others. Light-coloured curtains would be the most suitable here as light-coloured fabrics generally reflect sunlight and resist fading.
· Dark colours absorb light and fade. To protect fabrics from the sun, use lined curtains or blinds.
