Preparing Your Furniture for Storage

Cleaning and Maintenance

Before storing your Amish-made furniture, it’s crucial to clean it thoroughly. Remove any dirt, leaves, and debris, then gently wash the surfaces with mild soap and water. Be sure to dry the furniture thoroughly to prevent mold or mildew growth during storage.

Protecting and Covering

Once your furniture is clean and dry, consider applying a protective finish or sealant. This step is particularly important for wooden furniture, as it helps to preserve the wood’s natural beauty and extend its life. After applying the finish or sealant, cover your furniture with breathable, weather-resistant covers. These covers will protect against dust, moisture, and potential damage during the storage period.

Finding the perfect storage location for your Amish-made outdoor furniture is essential to ensuring its longevity. Ideally, you want a dry, climate-controlled space that’s protected from the elements. Basements, garages, or dedicated storage units are excellent options. Remember to keep your furniture off the ground and avoid stacking it to prevent unnecessary pressure or potential damage.
