Hanging your curtains 

STEP ONE:

Unbox your curtains 

Once your curtains arrive, take them out of the box and lay flat.   

STEP TWO:

Keep your curtains on a flat surface

Our curtains arrive ready pleated, so all you need to do is decide where to position the hooks. Just count the number of pleats in the curtain and make sure you have a curtain ring and curtain hook for each pleat. 

STEP THREE:

Insert the hooks

Attach a curtain hook into each pleat, until the entire length of the curtain has hooks in place. It’s important to make sure all the hooks are evenly spaced out, so take time to complete this first step accurately.

STEP FOUR:

Now hang your curtains

Holding the curtain in position, carefully thread the curtain hooks through the curtain rings. The quality of our fabrics can sometimes feel a little heavy, so recruit a friend to take the weight of the curtain, whilst you thread the hooks through the curtain rings. It’s best to start in the middle of your window and work towards the outside.
