How do you get rid of mold?

We had some curtains in the shed for ages, most of them are OK but one was obviously not sealed and has mold all over the back of the fabric.

 

It's been washed but the mold is still there.

 

 

How can we get rid of it?

Does it need to be 'killed' or will it be OK leaving it and covering it up? Will it grow back at the first sign of damp?

The curtains are old and were really expensive, we'd never get anything like them again so we want to keep them really - plus we can't afford new curtains!!

 

I could just use the one big curtain in the lounge, but it's obivously better to have 2 matching curtains together.

 

Thanks Ian I'll give that tip from the link a try later, or maybe when it's sunny!

 

 

I can't believe I'm selling my Supra and now talking about curtains. :limp:

If you can't afford ready made jobbies, have you got anyone who can make them for you? I've made all our curtains at home, and have recently done a window of about 6ft with a 3ft drop for less the £20 (that includes liners).

 

I'd personally give up on the mold, once its there its so hard to get rid of the smell.

These curtains are REALLY nice though, top quality, really thick swuedey material, and perfect colour for our house! Gutted that one is moldy.
