For the family who loves to dine outdoors following an afternoon barbeque, an umbrella covered table with matching chairs is the way to go. Protection from the sunlight is provided by the umbrella while the seating offers a comfortable place to enjoy lunch. Swings are equally popular among the nature lover who is content to enjoy all of the beauty that nature has to offer. From a bird trotting through the grass or a honey bee bouncing from one dandelion to the next, an outdoor swing can provide a front row seat.
In order to keep your lawn furniture polished and ready for use, there are a few tips that will make the art of cleaning much simpler.
Lawn Furniture Tip # 1
Many commercial cleaning products are designed to be used as furniture polish, but a number of individuals suffer from allergies and are sensitive to the harsh smell of such products. In addition to this, many parents are not comfortable using harsh cleaners around their children. A good substitute for cleaning your lawn furniture may include a wet rag with anti-bacterial dish washing liquid being applied just before scrubbing. Be sure to rinse the soap away after you are done for a shiny, polished look.
Lawn Furniture Tip # 2
Even outside, dirt and dust can be a problem. Rather than leaving your lawn furniture covered in nature’s gunk, take a sheet of bounce to remove any loose products. Dust is attracted to Bounce and will cling to it right away, but this will only work on material that is not stuck to the surface. Once you are through, toss the bounce in the garbage and be on your way.
Lawn Furniture Tip # 3
Planning a dinner under the stars to celebrate your fancy new lawn furniture? If so, several lit candles will add to the beauty. You could use either a regular or scented candle, but make sure to use a jarred product to avoid a problem with wax. Without the security of a jar or candle holder, this could be a real problem. Make sure to put out the candles after use and bring them back inside the home.
