Multi Drop Sheers

Can I purchase multi-drop sheers at Spotlight?

Yes, take a look at our large collection of sheer curtain fabric that is sold by the metre, ideal for covering windows where you would like to filter the sunlight or have a measure of privacy without blocking out all natural light. At Spotlight, you will find many different designs of sheer curtain fabric, some in one length, and other available in a variety of lengths, sometimes also called drop, to suit different sized windows and doors around the house. You will see from the pictures provided that some have a straight bottom edge, while others have a wavy or scalloped finish at the bottom.

How do I measure up the amount of fabric I need for multi-drop sheers?

The sizes listed next to each product represent the different lengths (drops) the material is available in. Find the most suitable for your window, and then allow approximately 1.5 to 2 times the width of the window to find the amount of fabric you will need, depending on how full you want your sheer curtains to be. Some sheer curtains do not require hemming at the sides, while others may need a small hem allowance if you want to finish the curtains off with a neat edging.

Are multi-drop sheers available only in white?

No, you will find a range of colours available in several of our multi-drop sheer designs, including cream, ivory, latte and even black, to fit into any style of interior. If you are browsing online, different colours will be represented by small coloured squares underneath the product image, and you can select your chosen colour before deciding how much fabric you will need during the purchasing process.

How do I put up my multi-drop sheers?

Our multi-drop sheers come with different headings. Some will have a small tunnel at the top to thread curtain wire through, which is then fixed tightly between two hooks that are screwed into either side of the window frame, while others have heading tape fixed to them, which can be gathered and then fixed to a rod or track by plastic hooks to create an instant window dressing. If no heading tape is fixed, you can sew your own tunnel or put a simple header tape on the curtain fabric.

How do I care for multi drop sheers?

Multi drop sheers can be gently washed by hand (washing in the machine is not recommended as the delicate fabric may be damaged in the machine) and rinsed, after which they can drip dry on the washing line or even back at the window. They should not need ironing but if creases have developed, iron them on a gentle warmth with a cotton cloth protecting them from the iron surface. If your white sheers have lost their brightness, there are special laundry products that can help restore them to a crisp white.
