Please read through all instructions carefully before you begin installation. Carefully remove your new draperies from their packaging. Use caution,

as drapery pins have been pre-inserted into pleats of drapery.

With drapery rod already installed, insert drapery pins through the

eyelets of the rings / carriers. Note: Once you have inserted drapery

pins in rings / carriers you may want to pinch the drapery pins closed

to prevent pins from falling out of eyelets.

(Optional) Installing returns on the ends of your draperies allows the last

fold of the drapery panel to “return” back to the wall. This is ideal especially

in areas where you can see your draperies from the side.

Take the last 3 ½” – 4” (will vary from product to product) of fabric at the

top of the drapery next to the last pleat, and simply return the fabric back

toward the wall. Affix the return to the wall by hooking a drapery pin to the

back side of the panel and then placing a screw in the wall at the same

height. Then attach pin to the screw. You may also use a staple gun to

fasten the return securely to the wall. This will keep the return in place.

Once you have inserted the pins in all the rings, let your drapery hang.

Begin to break (bend) the buckram (buckram is the stiffener sewn at the

top of the drapery behind the pleats) as shown in sketch below. This will

allow the drapery to stack properly and gain memory.

Once your draperies are installed, most wrinkles and folds will hang out on their own. You may also use a garment / commercial steamer to help eliminate wrinkles. Please

keep in mind linens will characteristically have wrinkles regardless of steaming or pressing.

Once your drapery is hung, if you need to make an adjustment to the height of the drapery, you can drop or raise the drapery pins +/- 1" to make the drapery

longer or shorter. If further adjustment is required you may have to adjust rod height.

simply vacuum over it using an upholstery attachment. For stubborn stains or overall deep cleaning,If the drapery is dusty, professional on-site service is recommended.
