Patio furniture sets consist of tables, umbrellas, and seats with cushions.
Cushions are usually included in most aluminum and rattan outdoor chairs, sofas, benches, and lounges.
The main reason for their inclusion is to provide comfort for people who want to relax or lie down for a nap.
However, during outdoor activities such as parties and dining, cushions tend to be stained with filth and dirt.
And when a household has owned pets, especially dogs and cats, they can spread filth, germs and harmful bacteria through their paws, urine, and droppings.
To make matters worse, dust, mold, and mildew grow within the couches and can cause people to sneeze and feel itchy.
What should you do when you are experiencing these cushion circumstances? You can eliminate these couch problems by either replacing your cushion or cleaning them.
Replacing cushions for outdoor furniture seats is the fastest way to eradicate couch issues.
There are available cushion replacements in the market online and stores that provide do-it-yourself (DIY) substitutions for cushions used in furniture.
ImprovementsCatalog.
com has a wide range of DIY replacements to help you seek new comfort out of your problematic cushions.
The Outdoor Chair/Rocker/Ottoman Replacement Patio Cushions can transform your aged outdoor furniture into fresh again, by substituting the worn-out cushions with the new substitutions.
These cushion substitutions are created to blend into the Charleston Resin Wicker Furniture and Georgetown Outdoor Furniture Collections, and are manufactured for outdoor use to prevent fading, dirt, and mildew.
These seat cushion replacements are available in Standard and Premium.
The former is woven with polyester fabrics with Dacron polyester fill, and is available in variations including Havana Moss, Cosette Green, Petra Tan, Huntington Adobe, Southwind, Calista Delft, and Garden Scroll.
The latter is made of woven jacquard textiles of solution-dyed olefin and polyester, also with the use of Dacron polyester fill, and it is available in themed versions including Elm, Paprika Sand, Paprika Foliage, and Nigella Sand.
There are other cushion substitutions available for sofa and lounges, although you know that buying replacements for old cushions cost a lot.
If you don't want to seek replacements then why not just clean the cushions instead? Cleaning them will make their use become sustainable and last for all seasons and a lifetime.
An article from DIYNetwork.
com can guide you how to clean your cushions in a resourceful and efficient manner.
Start by blending 1 tsp of dishwashing detergent and 1 tsp of borax in 1 quart of water, and then pour the blended substance in a spray bottle.
Soak the cushions on their front and back portions with the cleaning mixture to get rid of the mold and mildew present.
Let the cleaning mixture saturate the cushions for 15 minutes, and then use a garden hose to spray water on them continuously to eliminate the filth and traces of cleaning mixture.
Put the cushions up on edge to let them lose moisture until they become damp.
Apply a fabric protector like Scotch Guard on the cushions to defend them and improve the speed of the cleaning process.
Cleaning can be a sustainable answer to your cushion problems.
However, if you're not satisfied with the cleaning results on your cushions and want to just purchase substitutions instead, you can have the old ones recycled.
Companies like Carpet Cushions and Suppliers and Cushion Recyclers can give you money in exchange for the old cushions you donated.
That makes your cushion sustainability kill two birds with one stone because not only you rid yourself of the trash but also earn profit out of it.
These 3 solutions (replacement, cleaning, recycling) can cut your cushion worries and ensure that outdoor comfort will last a long time.
