Spring Cleaning Tips: Revive Outdated Furniture & Drapery

Personalize Your Home Decor with These Spring Cleaning Tips to Welcome the Season

As exciting as it is, the thought of cleaning and redecorating after the winter season can be a bit overwhelming. That’s why we’ve listed down two effective yet easy to accomplish spring cleaning tips to make your home feel brand new.

1. Revive Old Furniture

A quick and easy way to switch things up is by reupholstering your furniture. Whether it’s an old bed, worn out chairs, or a tired looking couch, this is the perfect way to transition into spring.

Plus, it’s a great way to repurpose old pieces that you might have stumbled upon after cutting through the clutter.

Pick Your Fabric

Choose fabrics that represent spring — think fresh, airy, greeneries and florals. Everything from classic and plaid stripes to soothing pastels and botanical prints are all fair game this season.

Also consider upholstery fabrics that would go well with spring details. Designs that pair with plants, figurines, wicker baskets, and accent pillows and table runners from your local fabric store.

Establish a Budget

Once you’ve finally chosen your upholstery fabric, you need to decide the rest of the materials and resources for the project.

Although DIY can be fun, sometimes it’s better to leave it to the experts. That way, you’re not left with unfinished projects once momentum wears off.

Contact a local fabric store that’s an expert in all things upholstery like Fabrics That Go. Simply share the details of your ideas, upload any photos, and we’ll give you a FREE Quote to bring your vision to life.

2. Lighten Up Your Window Treatments

If your curtains are dark-toned or thick, change them to lighter linens or sheer drapes for an airy feel.

For color choice, one of the best spring cleaning tips is to layer different fabrics. Combine shades of white, cream, and beige with vibrant printed textiles. The result is a space that’s full of depth and texture without sacrificing the calm and soothing vibe that neutrals provide.

Now to bring your window treatment vision to reality, our team of experts at Fabrics That Go offers custom drapery services. We’ll even help you determine how much fabric you’ll need and provide a FREE quote.
