Curtain cleaning: This you need to know

One way to clean your curtains is to wash your curtains. This involves taking the curtain off the rail and putting it in a laundry bag. Are metal hooks hanging from your curtains? Then it is useful to remove them before washing. Put your curtains in the washing machine and wash them at 30 degrees on a wool wash cycle. After washing, hang your curtains and let them dry in the closed position. If you have outdoor space to dry your curtains, this is preferable. This is because it will make the creases from washing come out faster.

Note: When washing curtains yourself, you should take into account that your curtains may shrink. Curtains made of cotton or linen can easily shrink if the washing instructions are not followed. So before you start washing your curtains, check the washing instructions and the shrinkage tolerance.

Are there stains or other dirt in your curtains? Then it is possible to steam clean your curtains. You can do this yourself using a steam cleaner, but we advise you to have it done by a dry cleaner. They know how to steam your curtain fabric without damaging your curtains. The only disadvantage of it is that this way, you must pay for it. The cost of dry cleaning your curtains depends on who does it. As a true do-it-yourselfer, you can of course use a steam cleaner to clean your curtains yourself. The handy thing about dry-cleaning curtains yourself is that you can simply leave your curtains hanging.
