Using these curtains is easy. Just hang them up in your living room or bedroom using the free hooks provided. They're great for reducing outside noise and saving energy. When it comes to cleaning, you can gently hand - wash them in cold water. Avoid using harsh chemicals. Also, remember that each set comes with two panels, and the size per panel is half of the overall size mentioned. And don't be surprised if the color on your screen is a bit different from the real curtains because of monitor settings.
