Investing in custom upholstery means investing in quality—we advise to use a little bit of extra care to keep your personalised piece looking beautiful for years to come.

 

Routine Cleaning:

• Vacuum regularly (weekly recommended) using a very, soft brush attachment to remove any dust

• Rotate and fluff cushions regularly to maintain their shape and even wear and tear.

 

Spot Cleaning:

• Attend to any spills immediately—the faster you act, the better the result.

• Blot (don’t rub) with a clean, dry cloth to absorb liquid.

• Spot clean with water-based cleaners only.

• Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.

 

Light & Environment:

• Avoid placing upholstery in areas of direct sunlight, as this can cause fading - over time.

• Maintain a stable indoor environment—extreme humidity or dryness can affect fabrics and fillings.

 

General Use Tips

• Avoid sitting on arms or edges to maintain structural integrity of your handmade piece.

• Keep sharp objects, pets’ claws, and rough materials away from fabrics.

• Use arm covers or throws in high-use areas to increase longevity as needed.

 

Fabric-Specific Care:

Different fabrics require different care methods:

• Natural fibres (linen, cotton): May wrinkle and stain more easily—gentle cleaning recommended.

• Velvets: Brush lightly to maintain pile direction; avoid excessive moisture.

• Performance fabrics: More resistant to stains but still benefit from regular maintenance.

• Regular care not only preserves the look of your upholstery but also extends its lifespan—making your custom piece a lasting part of your home.
