Using your ceiling drape is easy. First, decide on the location where you want to hang it, such as a wedding venue or a photo booth. Then, use the 4' rod pockets at both ends to attach it to the rod from our Ceiling Draping Hardware Kit. If you want a fuller look, remember to buy multiple panels. As for maintenance, this drape is made of a durable chiffon fabric with a flame - retardant finish that can withstand multiple cleanings. You can wash it, but keep in mind that it's been tested to pass flame tests only up to 5 washes. When not in use, store it in a dry place. Also, note that this listing is just for the drape, and hardware and other accessories are not included. It meets USA and Canada fire safety standards, and you can request fire test certificates if you need them.
