Use this tip to get that stain out of your velvet sofa

Unbelievable! A stain on your velvet couch? Here’s how to clean it!

When you discover a stain in velvet, start by using a dry cloth. The advantage of a velvet fabric is that this can be enough to get your sofa clean again. This is because this fabric already repels dirt and water by itself.

In case the dry cloth might not do enough, you can switch to a soft microfiber cloth. Mix this with lukewarm water and a drop of detergent or fabric softener. Then gently go over the stain with the cloth. Caution! Do not rub against the poles of the fabric, but rub with the fabric. This will keep the fabric beautiful and you won’t damage it.

If you want the stain to dry quickly, you may choose to use a blow dryer. But be careful! Do not hold the hair dryer too close to the fabric. This can burn the fabric and cause burn marks. After drying, you can get the velvet fabric back into shape with a velvet brush.

It’s really that simple!
