How to Care for Your Fabric Sofa: Essential Tips

Sofa care is essential to ensure longevity and maintain the beauty of your handcrafted furniture. Here are our top tips for keeping your fabric sofa in pristine condition.

1. Regular Vacuuming

Dust and grit can act like sandpaper on fabric fibres. Use a soft brush attachment and vacuum your sofa weekly, especially in the crevices where crumbs tend to hide.

2. Turn Your Cushions

To ensure even wear, we horizontal recommend turning and rotating your cushions regularly. This helps maintain the shape and prevents one area from becoming more worn than others.

3. Deal with Spills Immediately

If you spill something, blot it immediately with a clean, dry white cloth. Never rub, as this can push the stain deeper into the fibres.

4. Avoid Direct Sunlight

Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fabrics to fade over time. Position your sofa away from windows if possible, or use blinds during the brightest parts of the day.
