FAQs
Are the Yard Hebden curtains blackout curtains?
No, the Yard Hebden curtains are lined to provide privacy and gentle light reduction, but they are not designed to be blackout curtains. They will soften incoming light rather than block it completely.
How do I measure for the correct curtain size?
For width, measure the length of your curtain track or pole, not the window. For a fuller look, your curtains should be 1.5 to 2.5 times this measurement. For drop, measure from the top of your track/pole to where you want the curtain to end (e.g., sill, below sill, or floor).
Can I machine wash these 100% cotton curtains?
Yes, these curtains are machine washable. Please use a cold water setting on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach. Refer to the care label for specific instructions.
What type of curtain hardware do I need?
These pencil pleat curtains are versatile. They are suitable for both curtain tracks (using gliders and curtain hooks) and curtain poles (using curtain rings with eyelets for hooks).
Will the green colour fade over time?
All fabrics can experience some fading over prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. To help preserve the colour, consider rotating your curtains or using blinds/sheers during the strongest sunlight hours.
Do these curtains come with tie-backs?
Info needed: Please check the product packaging or retailer's description for confirmation regarding the inclusion of tie-backs. They are not explicitly mentioned in the core product description.
Troubleshooting
Curtains not hanging evenly or looking saggy.
Check the pleats: ensure the cords are pulled evenly along the entire heading tape and securely tied. Redistribute the curtain hooks more evenly along the tape and gliders/rings on the track/pole.
Excessive wrinkling after washing.
Cotton is prone to wrinkling. To minimize this, remove curtains from the dryer immediately when slightly damp and hang or iron on a low setting. A garment steamer can also effectively remove wrinkles once hung.
Light leakage around the edges of the window.
Ensure your curtain track or pole extends adequately beyond the window frame (15-20cm on each side) to allow the curtains to overlap the window opening fully when closed. You might also consider adding a pelmet or valance to cover the top gap.
Curtains feel too stiff or creased directly out of packaging.
Hang the curtains for a few days to allow gravity to help release folds. A light misting with water or a low-heat iron/steamer can help soften the fabric and improve the drape.
Pros and Cons

Cons

Wrinkling: As a 100% cotton product, they may be prone to wrinkling and may require occasional ironing or steaming to maintain a crisp look.
Colour Consistency: While typically consistent, natural fibers can sometimes show minor variations.
Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup
Measure Your Window: Ensure your curtain track or pole is wider than your window by at least 15-20cm on each side, and positioned about 15cm above the window frame. This allows curtains to be drawn back neatly.
Prepare the Curtains: Carefully remove the curtains from their packaging. Lay them flat to allow any initial creases to relax.
Gather the Pleats: On the reverse side of the curtain, pull the cords in the pencil pleat heading tape evenly from each end until the curtain width matches your track or pole width. Tie off the cords securely at both ends, ensuring the gathers are evenly spaced for a uniform look. Do not cut the excess cord, instead, neatly tuck it into a small pocket at the end of the tape.
Attach Hooks: Insert curtain hooks into the woven pockets on the gathered tape. For a pole, place hooks into the rings. For a track, attach hooks to the gliders. Distribute hooks evenly, typically every 3-4 pockets, starting from the ends.
Hang Curtains: Carefully hang the curtains onto your track or pole. Adjust them to ensure they hang evenly and create the desired drape.
Compatibility
Curtain Tracks: Compatible with standard curtain tracks that use gliders and curtain hooks.
Curtain Poles: Compatible with curtain poles, when used with curtain rings that have eyelets for hooks.
Care
Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Use mild detergent. Do not bleach.
Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang to air dry. Remove promptly to minimize wrinkles.
Ironing: If needed, iron on a low heat setting on the reverse side while damp to remove wrinkles. Use a steamer for a gentle approach.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Fold neatly to prevent deep creases.
