Some roman shades are made with removable battens and are intended to be washed. If this is the type you have, the battens will be in "pockets" and you can remove them and wash as if they were "gentle" care garments. Hang to dry.
Most have glued in battens and care must be taken not to dissolve the glue. These should not be submerged for cleaning. For regular cleaning, they should be vacuumed often. For deep cleaning or stain removal, you can try upholstery cleaner or carpet / rug cleaner foam. Perform a spot-test in an inconspicuous area first.
The other option is to have them professionally cleaned either at a dry cleaner or by a custom window treatment cleaning service.
Once clean, they should be treated with a fabric protectant, such as ScotchGuard.

How To Save Money With A Roman Shade?
Redecorating a home is expensive - even choosing new window treatments is expensive. Most people want a shade and curtains. When supplies, such as a curtain rod and tie-backs are included, traditional prices of a full window treatment set may be at least $100 per window. Shades and curtains are both expensive. It is important to choose good quality curtains, but fortunately there are ways to spend less and still get quality shades - with Roman shades. Some types of Roman shades are expensive, but overall quality and price of these items are lower than Venetian or vertical blinds, which are the two most popular choices for window shades. Rolling shades are difficult to install and keep clean, so Roman shades also hold advantages over them. The best way to save by purchasing Roman shades is to buy cloth ones with cloth-based drawstrings. When the entire shade is made of cloth, it is easy to clean, unlike many other types of shades. Roman shades can be purchased in stores or online. It is much easier and cheaper to buy them online. Most retail stores that sell home furnishings or window treatments will charge a much higher price for the shades. Online warehouses sell them for lower prices, usually not much higher than their wholesale value. For large projects that include more than 10 windows, it is possible to order Roman shades in bulk from wholesale companies online. Purchasing the shades at wholesale cost means they will be about 1/2 - 1/3 of the price. Remember when choosing a material and type of Roman shade that it will fit the purpose intended. If the shade is intended to block out light and omit night-time visibility from outside, do not choose one with thin material. There are special Roman shades with black-out material on the back side for this purpose. Shades that are intended to let large amounts of light in are also available; these are usually sheer or semi-sheer and do not provide privacy. Remember also to choose shades that have cloth drawstrings. Avoid Roman shades with metal in the lining, as it will rust over time and stain the fabric.
