FAQs

Are these curtains truly blackout?

The OHS Thermal Matte Velvet Eyelet Curtains are designed to be significantly light-blocking and provide excellent room darkening, making them ideal for bedrooms and media rooms. While they greatly reduce light, 'blackout' can sometimes imply 100% light elimination, which can depend on installation and fit around the window.

Can I machine wash these curtains?

Velvet often requires delicate care. We generally recommend consulting the specific care label attached to your curtains. In most cases, professional dry cleaning is advised for velvet curtains to maintain their texture and appearance. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild detergent is suitable for minor marks.

What size curtain rod do I need?

These eyelet curtains are designed to fit most standard curtain rods. For the best fit, ensure your rod has a diameter of no more than 1.5 inches (approximately 3.8 cm) to allow the eyelets to glide smoothly. The rod should also be sturdy enough to support the weight of the curtains.

How do I remove creases from the curtains after unpacking?

The best way to remove creases from velvet curtains is to use a garment steamer. Hold the steamer a few inches away from the fabric and gently guide it over the creased areas. Do not apply a hot iron directly to the velvet, as this can damage the pile.

Will these curtains help with energy saving?

Yes, the OHS Thermal Matte Velvet Eyelet Curtains are designed with superior thermal insulation properties. The dense velvet fabric acts as a barrier, helping to keep heat in during colder months and block heat out during warmer months, potentially contributing to energy savings by reducing the load on your heating and cooling systems.

Do these curtains reduce noise?

Due to their thick and dense velvet material, these curtains do offer some degree of sound dampening. They can help to reduce ambient noise from outside, contributing to a quieter and more peaceful indoor environment.

Troubleshooting

Curtains appear creased or flattened.

Velvet can get creased during packaging. Gently steam the curtains using a garment steamer from a safe distance. Avoid pressing directly with an iron.

Curtains are not blocking enough light.

Ensure the curtains are wide enough to cover the window frame completely when closed. The rod should extend beyond the window to allow the curtains to stack back fully when open and cover fully when closed. Consider adding a blackout lining if further light reduction is needed (though these curtains are designed for significant light blocking).

Velvet looks dull or matted.

Gently brush the velvet pile with a soft-bristled brush in the direction of the nap to restore its luster. Regular, gentle vacuuming with a brush attachment can also help maintain the pile.

Curtains are attracting excessive dust or lint.

Regularly use a lint roller or a soft brush attachment on your vacuum cleaner to gently clean the curtains. Ensure the room is well-ventilated to reduce static buildup.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Adds a touch of luxury and sophistication to any room.
  • Provides excellent thermal insulation, aiding in temperature regulation.
  • Effectively blocks light, enhancing privacy and creating ideal sleeping conditions.
  • Helps to dampen outside noise for a more peaceful environment.
  • Easy to install thanks to the eyelet design.

Cons

  • Velvet material requires specific and often gentle cleaning.
  • Heavier than standard curtains, requiring a sturdy curtain rod.
  • Can attract dust and lint, needing regular maintenance.
  • The dark color might make a small room feel cozier but potentially smaller if not balanced.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Choose a Rod: Ensure you have a curtain rod that is robust enough to support the weight of velvet curtains and extends beyond your window frame by at least 6-12 inches on each side for optimal coverage.
  2. Install the Rod: Securely mount your curtain rod according to its manufacturer's instructions. Ensure it is level and capable of holding the curtain weight.
  3. Hang the Curtains: Simply slide the eyelets of the curtains onto the curtain rod. Arrange the folds evenly for a consistent and attractive drape.

Compatibility

These eyelet curtains are designed to be compatible with most standard curtain rods. The diameter of the eyelets typically accommodates rods up to 1.5 inches in diameter. For best results, measure your rod's diameter before purchasing.

Care

Maintaining the luxurious look and feel of your velvet curtains requires specific care:

  • Spot Cleaning: For small spills or marks, gently blot with a clean, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid rubbing, which can crush the velvet pile.
  • Regular Dusting: Use a soft brush attachment on your vacuum cleaner or a lint roller to gently remove dust and pet hair from the curtains regularly.
  • Steaming: To remove creases or refresh the velvet pile, use a garment steamer on a low setting. Hold the steamer a few inches away from the fabric and move it gently. Avoid direct contact with a hot iron, which can damage the velvet.
  • Professional Cleaning: For a thorough clean, professional dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the integrity and texture of the velvet fabric. > Info needed: Refer to the product's specific care label for detailed washing instructions. If no label is present, professional cleaning is the safest option.
