Q: How do I maintain drapes or curtains?

• <div><p>Vacuum regularly, spot-clean stains, and follow care instructions for specific fabrics to maintain their appearance.</p></div>

Q: What should never be put in the dryer?

• <div><p>You should avoid putting anything in the dryer that could be damaged from the heat or tumbling motion, or caught in any parts of the dryer. While there are some items that should never be dried (such as spandex, silk, leather, wool, etc.), there are some items you can dry, but only if you put them in a mesh bag first. These are usually delicate items or any items with strings or pieces attached that could be ripped off in a drying cycle. </p></div>

Q: Which fabric is best for UV protection?

• <div><p>Regarding UV protection for furniture, synthetic fabrics like polyester and acrylic are some of the best choices. They have inherent UV-blocking properties and can withstand prolonged sun exposure better than natural fabrics like cotton or silk. Additionally, outdoor-specific fabrics for patio furniture often include UV-resistant treatments to enhance sun protection. Fabrics like these have become softer and more comfortable, making them suitable for interior spaces like sunrooms and other spaces brimming with natural light.</p></div>

Q: Is window film better than curtains, shades, or blinds?

• <div><p>Whether window film is better depends on individual preferences and specific needs. In some instances, window film can be much less costly to install. Aesthetics is also a deciding factor. Window film may have a more significant appeal for design minimalists looking for a clean and streamlined look without the heaviness that comes with curtains. On the flip side, they can also appeal to design maximalists looking for creative expression in the form of color, patterns, and texture. Choosing between window film and traditional window coverings depends on factors like desired functionality, aesthetics, and personal preferences.</p></div>

Q: Should curtains be washed or dry cleaned?

• <div><p>It depends on the type of curtain material you&rsquo;re working with, as cotton, cotton blends, polyester, burlap, and linen can usually stand up well to machine washing, while silk, velvet, sateen, and lace curtains are typically too delicate for washing machines. Check the tags on your curtains and follow the directions for the best results. If you&rsquo;re unsure of the material, are missing a how-to-wash tag, or have older curtains that might get damaged in the machine, take them to a dry cleaner to be on the safe side.</p></div>
