Attaching Blackout Linings
Step 1
Start by laying the curtain face down on a flat surface. Place the lining on top of the curtain, right side up.
Step 2
When using standard curtain hooks, insert the hook into lining tape and then curtain tape, select the right hook position for curtain pole or track.
Step 3
Pull curtain hook towards you so the downward arm of the hook lies over the face side of the lining.
Step 4
If curtain track is fitted with hook gliders, attach them to appropriate hook position on curtain tape. Then, insert a standard curtain hook into lining tape, pull through ring at the foot of the hook glider, so downward arm of the curtain hook lies over face side of lining.
Step 5
Unpick the cords at one end of both curtain and lining and knot securely. Unpick the cord at the opposite end, evenly gather the tape until the required curtain width is reached. Surplus cord should be tied closely to the edges of the tape to hold the curtain in position. Tie a loop that can be easily undone when cleaning.
