Caring for your outdoor furniture can lead to a lot of questions. What if you spill wine on your brand-new upholstery? What do you do when you find mold or mildew on your furniture? Add in the winter temperatures can make it even harder to find the best way to care for your outdoor furniture. Let’s take a look at a few ways to keep your Sunvilla furniture looking its best this winter season.
Saving Your Outdoor Furniture from Spills
Nothing ruins a cozy night by the outdoor fireplace more than an unexpected spill. Your first line of defense is to blot the spill with a dry cloth. Spray on a mixture of mild soap such as Dawn mixed with water; make sure to rinse the solution thoroughly and let your furniture air dry.
Keep Your Patio Furniture Covered
One of the best ways to keep your outdoor furniture protected year round is to keep it covered when not in use. Protect your investment with a high-quality furniture cover. Sunvilla makes it easy with its line of furniture covers that will fit any Sunvilla piece. These covers are available in a soothing neutral color, allowing your covered furniture will blend into any environment.
Take Care of Your Outdoor Furniture Cover
When you decide to uncover your furniture, make sure to clean it before storage. Sunvilla’s furniture covers are machine washable making it easier than ever to clean. They are also easy to store with an efficient built-in storage pouch.
Dealing with Patio Furniture Mold and Mildew
For high humidity environments with milder winters, like south Louisiana, you are more susceptible to mold and mildew on your outdoor furniture. Fear not, as there are a few ways to mitigate this. Fortunately, Sunvilla furniture fabrics are mold resistant. However, if you do spot mold on your furniture, make a solution of 1 cup of bleach and 1/4 cup of mild soap per gallon of water. Spray the solution on the affected area and wait 15 minutes. Go over the area with a sponge or dry towel and then rinse the area to ensure there is no residue.
