There are many solutions for removing mattresses odours, including taking it to a professional to get it cleaned. But, before taking to a mattress cleaner, you may like to try a few tips on your own.

    Here are some tips to remove odour from a mattress:

    • To get the musty smell out of the mattress, you need to put it outside in the sun for at least ten hours on a sunny day. Musty smell can occur if the mattress is stored near water or in a dank and wet area. While putting mattress out in the sun place a piece of plastic under the mattress so that it does not get wet or dirty.
    • If your mattress smells of urine, if someone urinates on it, then use a fabric neutraliser like Febreeze, and allow it to dry and then you can place dryer sheets on top of the mattress. You can keep dryer sheets between the mattress and the sheets till odour dissipates.
    • And if there is a chemical smell in your mattress due to cleaning or sanitizing, then a dryer sheet tip will work in a pinch, as well.

    So, this way you can keep your mattresses clean and fresh.

    Some Tips To Dress Up Your Fourposter Bed

    August 28th, 2010

    A bed is usually the focal point of a bedroom, whether it is of child’s bedroom or of an adult’s. You can decorate your bedroom with any bed, but if you want something stylish and extraordinary in your room, then I will suggest fourposter bed.

    Fourposter beds are very elegant in looks and give a unique style to your room decoration. So, if you are looking for a bed, then come to ‘Heirloom Beds’ and take away a fourposter bed to enjoy a luxurious comfort and rich look in your bedroom. And, if you are worried about how to dress up this bed, then here are some helping tips for you:

    • In dressing up your fourposter bed you would need pillows, shams, throw pillows and 4 to 5 yard fabric of your choice.
    • Now first of all tuck all the corners of bedspread in and pull up the blankets and sheet. Nothing looks more bad than blankets and bedspread approaching out around the corners.
    • You can choose a solid colour for the bedspread. Now, drape the bedspread on the top of the tucked in blankets and sheets. Put some more pillows against the headboard of the bed and not too many.
    • To give a dramatic effect to your four-poster bed tie a swath of fabric from one column to another. You can bring this dramatic sense only if your fabric is lightweight and if the room is big enough to hold such dramatic effect.
    • Do not put a bed skirt. A bed skirt looks beautiful on beds, but with a four-poster bed, it is a total no no.

    You can put a bedspread of the same as wall colour or in combination with the paint of your room. A bed is meant to give total comfort and so is a four-poster bed.
