  1. The easiest way to clean curtains is to vacuum them while they are still hanging. Do this regularly to preempt a buildup of dust and dirt that can be caused by ceiling fans, leak in from windows or just occur naturally. Avoid any fringes or cords that will be ruined if caught in the vacuum. Avoid too much pull with the vacuum so the curtain does not fall from the rod. 

  2. These types of cleaners are now widely available for home use and are not that expensive. Use this in the same manner as you would vacuum the curtains: while they are hanging and with gentle strokes. 

  3. It is possible to use dry cleaning solvents in your steam cleaner and clean the curtains at home. However, for dry cleaning, it is recommended that you take them in to a local professional. This is imperative for those curtains that suggest dry cleaning only, so as not to ruin the fabric.

  4. For a quick clean, you can simply shake the curtains out, either while they are still hanging or when removed from the rods. To avoid contaminating all the other surfaces of your home, detach the curtains and shake them outside. Do not use this technique if the curtains are very dusty or have not been cleaned for a while. 

  5. Use this technique for curtains that are made of velvet-like or other similar material. This can be done regularly and is simple and quick. This is very easy for heavy curtains that are not easily maneuveredor taken down. 

  6. To simply remove odors, use the new sprays widely available at any store. There are several brands of fabric freshener available in a variety of different scents. This will give the curtains a quick clean and the spray will make the rest of the room smell pleasant as well. This is a great method for pet owners or smokers.
