Thinking of doing a refresh? Don't throw that item out. Sometimes items just need a quick update. We are here to give you some quick interior design and furniture tips.
Reupholstering and refinishing furniture are excellent methods to rejuvenate a space, giving a fresh look and new life to an existing piece.
Sofa before reupholstery with a non-performance fabric.
The client chose a cream-colored fabric that wasn't performance-based. With young children, maintaining a stain-free sofa became a relentless task.
Performance fabric for the win!
When choosing fabric for reupholstering, consider the overall ambiance you desire for the space.
Examine the fabric's durability and composition.
For homes with children, opt for high-performance fabrics with a durability rating of over 25,000 rubs.
Understanding the fabric's composition is crucial for proper cleaning. Viscose, a synthetic material, requires careful selection as it can discolor with certain cleaners.
Performance fabrics should allow for easy cleaning of substances like crayons and wine using just soap and water.
