FAQs
Are these curtains truly 100% blackout?
While designed with an internal blackout weave for significant light blocking, '100% blackout' can be influenced by installation. They effectively block most light, but some minimal light may escape around the edges of your window if not properly fitted to extend beyond the frame.
What material are these curtains made from?
These curtains are made from 100% polyester, featuring a supersoft microfibre texture and a soft sheen for a luxurious feel.
How do I clean these curtains?
They are designed to be easy care. Typically, machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water, do not bleach, and tumble dry on low or hang to dry. Always check the specific care label for detailed instructions to ensure longevity.
What size are these curtains?
Each individual curtain panel measures a generous 90 inches in width by 90 inches in drop (228cm x 228cm).
Can these curtains really help with energy savings?
Yes, their thermal insulation properties help regulate room temperature. They keep heat in during colder months and block excessive heat from the sun during warmer months, potentially reducing heating and cooling costs by insulating your windows.
Is the color the same on both sides of the curtain?
Yes, these are 'Double Face' curtains, meaning they have the same yellow color and soft sheen on both the inside and outside-facing sides, providing a cohesive look.
Do I need any special hardware to hang these curtains?
No special hardware is needed beyond a standard curtain rod or pole. The universal eyelet design allows for easy hanging on most common curtain rods.
Troubleshooting
Curtains do not block all light effectively.
Ensure your curtains extend sufficiently beyond the window frame on all sides. Light can often seep in from gaps at the top, sides, or bottom. Consider installing a wrap-around curtain rod or adding blackout lining strips along the edges of the window frame for a more complete seal.
Curtains appear wrinkled or creased after unpacking.
Hang the curtains as soon as possible. Many wrinkles will naturally relax and fall out over a few days due to gravity. For more persistent creases, use a fabric steamer or iron on the lowest heat setting with a protective cloth from the reverse side of the curtain.
Curtains do not slide smoothly along the curtain rod.
Check if the curtain rod is level and free from obstructions. Ensure the eyelets are not catching on any joints or brackets. Applying a small amount of silicone spray or furniture polish (on a cloth, not directly on the curtain) to the top of the rod can help reduce friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most from your Dreamscene Eyelet Blackout Curtains is simple with these guidelines.
Setup Instructions
- Measure Your Window: Before hanging, accurately measure your window's width. For a full, gathered appearance, the total width of your curtain panels should be 1.5 to 2.6 times the width of your window.
- Install Curtain Rod: Ensure your chosen curtain rod or pole is securely mounted above your window frame. Allow sufficient width on either side of the window for the curtains to extend beyond the frame, which helps minimize light leakage.
- Thread Eyelets: Simply thread the universal eyelet rings onto your curtain rod. The large eyelets are designed for easy sliding.
- Adjust Drape: Once hung, adjust the fabric evenly along the rod to achieve the desired fullness and aesthetic drape.
Compatibility
These curtains feature a universal eyelet ring top design, making them compatible with most standard curtain rods and poles. When selecting a rod, ensure its diameter is suitable to pass through the eyelet rings easily.
Care Instructions
Your Dreamscene Eyelet Blackout Curtains are designed for easy maintenance. To keep them looking their best and preserve their blackout and thermal properties:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using cold water. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting, or preferably, hang to air dry to prevent damage to the fabric and maintain the drape.
- Ironing: If wrinkles are present, iron on a low temperature setting, ideally using a pressing cloth to protect the microfibre texture.
- Maintenance: Regularly dust or gently vacuum your curtains to prevent dirt buildup.
