Troubleshooting
Curtains are not blocking out enough light.
Ensure the curtains fully cover the window and consider using a curtain rod that extends beyond the window frame to reduce light leakage from the sides.
Curtains are creased after washing.
Iron the curtains on a low setting. Avoid ironing the eyelets.
