ECRU & BEIGE CURTAINS

HOW TO RESTORE COLOUR

To restore the colour of ecru and beige curtains, try washing them in clear coffee. When washing coloured

curtains loosen them from their linings at the hems and remove all hooks and rings, then place them in a large bath of soap-flake suds. Be sure not to soak them, but stii and knead the material for a few minutes only. Transfer them to a bathful of clean suds and repeat the process until the curtains are clean. Next, rinse in three waters and put through the wringer, and be sure to hang evenly over the line.
