Q: How often should curtains be washed?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s a good idea to wash curtains every <b>six months or</b> so to avoid allergens from building up in them and to get rid of any odors from cooking, exercising, or pets. You might want to wash your curtains as often as every three months if you have multiple pets, someone in your family is highly allergic to dust or pet dander, or you cook often with aromatic spices or oils. You might consider a standalone cleaning if you get stains on your curtains or they are visibly soiled.</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: How do you declutter for the holidays?

• <div><p>Strat decluttering for the holidays by removing trash and organizing items into different piles that you&rsquo;ll keep, donate and toss out. Whatever you intend to keep, find a specific place for it, and if you buy something, get rid of an item that&rsquo;s taking up space. Start small, go room-by-room, and don&rsquo;t try to declutter all at once&mdash;doing so can get overwhelming.</p></div>

Q: Can I clean drapes or curtains myself?

• <div><p>Some fabrics can be machine washed, but delicate or large drapes require professional cleaning to prevent shrinkage or damage.</p></div>

Q: What is the best way to clean drapes?

• <div><p>The best way to clean drapes depends on the material, as certain washing methods are necessary for more delicate materials. You can follow the general guidelines below in most cases:</p><ul><li><p><b>Cotton:</b> Machine wash</p></li><li><p><b>Lace:</b> Hand wash</p></li><li><p><b>Linen:</b> Dry clean</p></li><li><p><b>Polyester:</b> Machine wash</p></li><li><p><b>Silk:</b> Dry clean or steam clean</p></li><li><p><b>Velvet:</b> Dry clean</p></li><li><p><b>Wool:</b> Dry clean</p></li></ul><p>You should also consider if there&rsquo;s any existing damage to the drapes, like pulls or small tears, that could get worse with aggressive washing. Additionally, older drapes may require special care from a professional to preserve them but still leave them clean.</p></div>
