Washing in the Washing Machine

Before starting this process, make sure you read the label on your draperies to make sure you’re following proper washing instructions. Some drapes, like sheer, silk, and wool, can’t be washed in the machine and will need to be dry cleaned. You’ll also need to pay attention to water temperature and other factors. If your drapes happen to not have an instruction label, simply drop them off at the dry cleaners!
