Using this curtain is a breeze. First, find a suitable location and set up your curtain rod. Then, simply slide the curtain through the rod pockets on both ends and hang it up. For best results, pair it with our backdrop stands. When using it for events, you can create a beautiful and private space. For photography, it provides a great backdrop. Remember, this listing only includes the curtain, so you'll need to buy the stands and rods separately. As for maintenance, spot - clean the curtain with a mild detergent when it gets dirty. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the chiffon and polyester materials. Store it in a dry place when not in use to keep it in good condition.
