Caring for your furniture in Winter...
Winter is a wonderful time in Brisbane, hot chocolates, comfort food, doona weather but with a drop in temperature there is also a rapid decline in humidity. With these changes, timber furniture can dry out and possibly split in various places...
You can avoid this by using a suitable furniture wax to promote and keep moisture in the grain. Simply wax on with a clean dry cloth and then wax off any excess, doing this a few times during winter will noticeably enhance your furniture and keep it in pristine condition.
If you are unsure of which wax to use, or you would like to purchase some of our furniture wax please call us on
