The Right Way to Clean Your Drapes

Drapery cleaning is one of the most overlooked household chores. But just think: you open the window and all this pollen comes flying through. Where does it go? For the most part, your drapes act as a shield for the rest of your home, so it’s important that you clean them regularly.

It might come as a shock, but cleaning your flowy drapes are easier to do when hung as opposed to laying out flat. Now, what exactly is the best cleaning method? We’re glad you asked!

Vacuum with the correct nozzle.
Just like your carpets, your drapes need to be vacuumed too. But yes, there is a wrong way to vacuum your window treatments! The best results, take out your dusting brush nozzle, which can easily brighten your textile and remove dust. This nozzle won’t tug too tightly on your drapes, but it will remove the dirt and dust.
