Cleaning Roman Blinds is as simple as dusting your TV unit. Do it regularly with a feather duster or with your vacuum attachment and it will never be a problem. If you do get any marks on the material, always follow the cleaning instructions that came with the fabric. If you don't have them, then a safe bet is to use a damp cloth with gentle soap. You can also get cleaning erasers from the supermarket - white foam erasers - they will work on some fabrics and are fairly gentle.
