 Position of cushions:

Whether you want to put them on your upholstery, bed or even on your carpets. This decides the choosing of your cushions.

Cushion Covers:

Silk fabric is strong and adaptive according to the home décor style. It is long lasting if not exposed to sunlight. This fabric is used only in high-end cushions.

Tips on how to take care of your home during monsoon

In India, monsoon comes as a relief by beating the scorching summer. But it also brings a lot of unwanted issues for your home. Your home needs to be treated with utmost care in order to relieve these problems. Here are a few tips that may help!

Use quick dry towels during the season:

With the onset of monsoon, things are prone to catching fungus, especially things like damp towels. Use towels that are quick to dry and require less maintenance. Also, don’t forget to wash your towels regularly.

Carpets collect harmful bacteria and other unwanted elements during monsoon. It’s best recommended to vacuum clean your carpets twice a week to ensure their freedom from dirt, germs and dampness.

Say no to heavy curtains:

Heavy curtains and monsoon don’t go hand in hand. Keep your home lively by using curtains, which are light in colour and texture. Sheer curtains are ideal for this season. These help to eradicate the musty smell arising due to rain and humidity. You can also use cotton curtains for their adorable looks and ventilation-friendly quality.

Lock away your fancy decorative items for a while:

In monsoon, due to the presence of humidity and moisture, it’s best to lock away all your fancy decorative belongings for a while. Use items that are less decorative and more breathable in nature, and also are quick to dry if they get wet due to the rain.

Ensure cross ventilation in your home:

During monsoon, the winds bring in a lot of humidity to your home, making the place quite uncomfortable to live in. To reduce this problem, cross-ventilate your home. This helps to cool your home and reduce air-borne diseases.

Non-slip doormat at the entrance provides safety and cleanliness

Doormats also help in providing safety and cleanliness to your home by absorbing dirt and moisture. It’s best recommended to use non-slippery doormats to prevent slipping and falling.
