If you have purchased a cushion with a feather insert, the only cleaning method is to dry Clean

How to clean my blinds?

Every type of blinds generally need different cleaning methods. You will find on each product page the suitable cleaning method for each product

 

How to clean my curtains?

All our curtains come with a care label, specific to the composition of the fabric we use. It is important to follow these care instructions thoroughly.

All our fabrics are tested to meet the Australia standard required for colour fastness to light. It is worth noting that All fabrics, regardless of dyes used, may deteriorate under direct sunlight or reflected Ultra Violet rays.

To help care for your fabric, we recommend the following tips which may help prolong the life of curtains:

  • Curtains should be hung at least 10cm from the glass to enable air to circulate. This assists in preventing mildew, and reduces heat build-up, both of which can adversely affect your fabric.
  • Regular dusting and vacuuming should be undertaken; however, frequent laundering is not usually required. When vacuuming, always use an appropriate attachment.
  • Should washing be required, always refer to your curtain’s care instructions, as some require specific washing instructions.
  • Always exercise caution by test cleaning on non-exposed surface. Avoid excessive rubbing and abrasion.
  • If the sun is directly reflecting on the fabric behind a glass window, consider using a  sun filter sheer cutain or blind where possible.
  • Leading edges of the curtains (those facing the windows) are particularly vulnerable to sunlight degradation. To help minimize this effect, it is recommended that curtains be rotated periodically, i.e. the left-hand curtain swapped to the right-hand position.
  • Ensure sufficient ‘stack back’ is achieved to minimise direct sunlight effects and draw the curtains back from the windows during the day. This is particularly important during the Summer months, when the sunlight is strongest. Although closing the curtains will help keep the interior cooler, it is highly destructive to decorative and ordinary lined fabrics. Temperatures between the glass and curtain or blind can become extreme, causing to fabrics becoming fragile which can lead to tearing and disintegration.

 

Will my product match what I see on screen? / Can I trust the colours on my screen?

We endeavour to ensure that all the products on our website are accurately described. Unfortunately, on some occasions it is possible that our website will contain errors and we reserve the right to correct any errors or inaccuracies at any time, including after you have placed an order. We endeavour to ensure that all colours are displayed accurately, but you should be aware that colours may appear slightly differently on different displays and screens.

 

My product was damaged in transit, what do I do?

Unfortunately, items are occasionally damaged in transit. If an item arrives and the packaging or the item itself is clearly and significantly damaged, you should take photos or video showing the damage, refuse to accept the delivery and contact us immediately. We’ll share your feedback with our delivery partner to ensure our service and the quality of packaging is improved.

If you notice that an item is damaged after it has been delivered to you, please take photos or video clearly showing the damage and contact us as soon as possible, ideally within 3 business days of receiving your delivery.

The type of remedy we offer will depend upon the circumstances. We will work collaboratively with you to find an outcome that you’re happy with. For example we may arrange to:

Simply call us, or even better, visit your local stockist for expert advise on colours, sizes, design or installation. The chances are that we have a solution for you!

 

Can I cut down my curtains?

We realise that many people are very experienced when it comes to sewing. It does make sense to adjust your curtains if they are a touch too long, although we encourage you to hang them higher above the window (creating a more sophisticated look), rather that shorten the drop. Since we sell a product that is fully finished, we cannot apply our warranty to any product that has been altered.

 

Do the curtains come in pairs or singles per pack?

Curtains generally come as single when buying an eyelet curtain, and they come as a pair when buying a pencil pleat. The reason is because you always need to pencil pleat curtains on a track so they meet in the middle. However you don’t necessarily need 2 eyelet curtains if the width of your window is narrow enough.

How do I know if my order has been shipped?

You will get an automated message from us or our courier company confirming that your order has been dispatched. Should you have chosen the Click & Collect option from your closest store, you will get an email confirming when your order has been packed and is ready for pick up.

After an order, or part thereof, reaches the dispatch processing stage, cancellations or changes may not be possible.

How to keep my curtains and blinds child safe?

The risks associated with cord mechanisms on blinds & curtains are important to be aware of. Details of how to install the devices are included in the blinds  and our customer care team are on hand should you need any further advice.

The aim of these devices is to ensure that children be kept safe from any looped cords or chains to prevent strangulation. It is also important that beds, cots and other items of furniture are moved out of the way of the operating cords so that they remain out of reach. Once your blinds are installed following the strict child safety steps, we encourage you to

Regularly check for loose or looped cords that children can reach from the floor or by climbing on furniture. Do keep the chain & cord tensioning device or cleat always in use.

Sustainability

How sustainable are our products?

That Home Feel aims to follow a set of sustainable practices at different levels: Manufacturing, packaging, Shipping. We are not perfect and whilst our ambition is to limit our impact on the planet to the bare minimum, we must improve constantly.

Currently the packaging of some of our curtains is non-PVC and made of recycled PE.
