Upholstery Care

Here are some tips on how to prolong the life of your upholstered furniture:

Keep upholstered furniture away from direct sunlight to prevent fading of colors.

You shouldn't place newspaper on upholstered fabric-- ink can rub off just as it does on your hands! Also, keep in mind that dye from dark-colored blankets or sheets can rub off or bleed onto your fabric.

It makes sense to vacuum your upholstered furniture frequently.  Dust and dirt in small amounts can damage your fabric by acting like sandpaper on the fibers. You may want to rotate cushions when you vacuum them to get even wear.

Cushion covers should NOT be washed in the washing machine! It's recommended to have your upholstered furniture professionally cleaned about once a year.

 Leather Furniture Care

Often leather furniture will have a tag on it that identifies the type of leather and the recommended care. Here are a few general tips to care for your leather furniture:

Do not expose the leather to direct sunlight.

It's recommended to dust leather frequently. Leather can be very porous, so this will help eliminate the clogging of pores. DO NOT use any cleaning product on your leather without consulting a professional. 

For spots and spills, wipe any excess liquid immediately with a clean absorbent cloth or sponge. Do not use soap, or soak the stain heavily with water... this may cause more damage than the stain itself. 

It's a good idea to regularly vacuum in crevices.
