Once you’ve finally made the big decision about which living room furniture to purchase, what steps will you take to ensure that it keeps its fresh, new look?

Placement is key. You’ve probably already decided where you will place each piece of furniture - sofa, chairs and ottomans - but did you consider the sunlight that comes through the windows at various times of the day?

One of the primary steps you can take to protect your new furniture is to make sure it’s placed away from direct sunlight. Harsh rays from the sun not only fade fabric or leather, it breaks down the fibers over extended exposure.

So use your blinds or curtains to make sure your furniture is protected during the heaviest periods of sunshine. If you don’t have window treatments, window blinds are a great solution.

You’ll also find a wide selection of window blinds. Whatever your home remodeling, building or decorating needs, DirectBuy brings you a great selection at amazing wholesale prices.
