I need to buy two new curtains for our living room because they have water stains from when the roof leaked a few years ago. The previous owners had similar stains on their curtains because of the same problem not dealt with until we did. spaniellove on "how often do you wash your curtains?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-wash-your-curtains#post-1601669 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 10:11:24 +0000 spaniellove 1601669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Wash curtains...what?

They are a really expensive material (given to us by Emily Henderson when she made over our living room for her show on HGTV) and I've been scared to machine wash them. I've been wanting to dry clean them, but I know it will cost a fortune and I just haven't brought myself to deal with it. mrsjyw on "how often do you wash your curtains?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-wash-your-curtains#post-1601652 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 10:07:57 +0000 mrsjyw 1601652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I didn't used to, but I now wash them once a season when I switch our sets out! mrbee on "how often do you wash your curtains?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-wash-your-curtains#post-1601647 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 10:07:01 +0000 mrbee 1601647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Is this a trick question?
