How to Wash Sheer Curtains?(Sheer Vertical Blinds)


Sheer Vertical Blinds

Sheer curtains add beauty to any room. From elegance in eggshell color, to purple passion for a teenager's room, they can be worked into any design, adding an extra special touch. Keeping them looking as fresh and new as the day they were put up is not easy, however. Their sheer fabric takes on many dirt and dust particles, so keeping them clean can be a chore.

STEP 1
Fill the washer with lukewarm water. (Even if you only have a few curtains, use a full washer as it will help to keep the curtains from twisting and wrinkling). As the washer is filling, add a water conditioner (available in most grocery and department stores).

STEP 2
Once the washer is full, press the curtains down into the water. Never fill the washer more than half full with curtains.

STEP 3
Put the washer on pre-soak and let the curtains soak for five minutes. After five minutes, put the washer on a gentle rinse cycle.

STEP 4
After rinsing, with the curtains still in the washer, fill the washer to full once again with lukewarm water.

STEP 5
Mix detergent into water. If you use powdered detergent, mix it in a bowl to dissolve the clumps before adding it to the washer with the curtains.

STEP 6
Put on a gentle wash cycle for three to five minutes. Continually check on the curtains during the wash cycle to be sure curtains are not twisting around the agitator.

STEP 7
When wash cycle has completed, put the curtains on a gentle rinse cycle with cool water. Once washer has filled, add fabric softener, stirring it through the water.

STEP 8
When curtains have had their final spin, place them in the dryer on "air dry." Add three to four small hand towels to help absorb the moisture. Hang up as soon as they are dry, to ensure they will not wrinkle.
