Is there anything else I need to consider when reupholstering furniture?

Colour, pattern and texture are vital considerations, and your newly upholstered fabric should fit with your interior design. Consider whether you would prefer a colour that complements the scheme or something bright and colourful, a traditional pattern or a contemporary option, and the mixture of textures that are already apparent in the space. It is also important to consider the item that you are upholstering if it is likely to be used frequently, a more durable fabric that is easier to clean may be a better suit. Shop fabric protectors at Spotlight to help keep marks on your newly upholstered furniture at bay.
