Hi all, just been away for a short break in our Eriba and something that was majorly annoying reared it's ugly head. Does everyone else have those annoying little plastic hooks at each side of the window? You're supposed to put something lightweight but strong on it, I'm guessing, to tie back the curtains.... I've just spent all weekend 'awake', because the darned curtains keep brushing your face...and for an arachnaphobe...boy that's no joke..lol Is there a solution that anyone has found??

In the short term use your blinds rather than the curtains and in the longer term get some round elastic and make yourself some tie backs.

You can get thin elastic from the supermarket.

Or even better just get rid of the acres of net curtains. Horrid.

Well, the latest update is, the stupid net/curtain holders, were so ineffectual, in that a couple appear to be pulling out of the walls, where the rivets are pulling through...not a good scenario. I have made the best of a bad job, but actually drilling holes in the plastic, and placing tiny wooden knobs through them, securing tightly, so the plastic does not snap apart. I have some thin corded elastic holding back the curtains, but it's still not very good. We only have a blind on one window, and am not sure how/where to get two sets of blinds, one for each of the side windows and a set of new seals for the door side window.... groans..more expense...

Can you post some pics?

Hi there, yes, of course, I will try and get some tomorrow...
