Six Ways for Taking Care of Wood Furniture<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Have you been thinking about adding unique vintage charm to your condo? I mean, you have seen a lot of interior design works in Singapore and you love every bit of design made with wooden furniture. Now you are thinking of buying some for your condo, or you have already made the purchase. Well, how about we tell you some important tips you should know about taking care of wooden furniture?<\/p>\n

One truth about quality wooden furniture is that it can last for a lifetime and through many generations. So, if, for your new wood furniture, you would like to keep them as heirlooms for your children and grandchildren, the onus lies on you to take care and maintain the furniture. Even the best quality wood is not resistant to scratch and abrasions. So, check out these amazing tips for maintaining your wood furniture.<\/p>\n

1. Dust regularly.<\/strong>
\nYou should have a piece of soft, dry cotton cloth specifically for your wood furniture and you should dust them every time you notice they are getting dusty. It feels like a lot of work already, right? It is a worthy sacrifice. Don\u2019t you love the shiny look your furniture has? Dusting makes it possible and if you can dust your tables, sofas, cabinets, etc. on a weekly or bi-weekly basis, no dust will have anything on you.<\/em><\/p>\n

2. Set up away from sunlight.<\/strong>
\nProlonged sunlight is not friendly to wooden furniture at all. If wood is exposed to sunlight for a long time, it has an effect called \u201cspotting.\u201d Spotting is the appearance of dark and bright spots on the wood. If there is too much light exposure in your condo and your table takes on the most of this sunlight, you can either have dark curtains or use a tablecloth to protect the table and mitigate the effects of the sunlight. The type of curtain you use in your home is important so, make sure you pick a suitable one.<\/em><\/p>\n

3. Monitor the temperature your furniture comes in contact with.<\/strong>
\nAlways keep the temperature in your home cool and avoid placing too hot and cold items on wooden furniture. You do not want to get the surface texture distorted. If at all, you must put hot or cold things on your wood furniture, make sure it is not exposed for too long.

4. Keep sharp objects away.<\/strong>
\nA scratch on wood never looks good, and it does not disappear so easily. You must make sure sharp objects are not left lying around your furniture. Always have a small jar of a wood-filler that matches the wood colour, just in case a scratch happens.<\/em><\/p>\n

5. Wax and Oil Regularly.<\/strong>
\nTo maintain the shiny appearance of your wooden furniture, regular oiling and waxing work wonders. Do this once in three months to maintain a classic-looking modern condo interior design.<\/em><\/p>\n

6. Clean with warm water.<\/strong>
\nApart from dusting, warm water and mild dish soap should be used to clean your wooden furniture. Clean until you get rid of the dust entirely and wipe with a dry cloth afterward. You can also purchase wood polishing agents to clean and bring back that shine every few months.
