The Summer is a Great Time to get into Leather Furniture

Summer is a great time to start considering updating and improving your home, making it more refreshing and comfortable for yourself, your family, and your guests. Adding new furniture, or simply updating and replacing outdated furniture, can go a long way to improving the quality and comfort level of a home.

One of the best ways to update your furnishings (and home décor) is to replace outdated furniture with new leather furniture. Just about anyone would love to have a new recliner or sofa in their den or living room to be able to comfortably relax while they unwind from the day. If you’re looking for a way to live out that dream in your own recliner or wingback chair, check out this website for a great place to buy a leather chair in Toronto. If you don’t live in Toronto, just do your research and look around! Ideally you want a retailer that provides a wide selection, has been in business a long time, and has a history of satisfying its customers.


Leather is a very high quality material that has always been a gold standard when it comes to comfort, durability, and breath ability. There really is nothing better than relaxing on your new couch with the windows open and a glass of lemonade (complete with a sprig of mint) by your side. A lot of people seem to think that leather is a bad choice for summer, but it’s actually the opposite! It is cooler than your body temperature, and because it breathes so well you don’t end up sweating as much as when you sit in a fabric chair. Just ask the experts at your local furniture retailer, such as the Chesterfield Shop in the GTA, about the advantages of it as a material in the summer months.

In regards to durability, leather outlasts furniture made out of fabric by a ratio of four to one. That’s probably because it doesn’t tear anywhere near as easily, and it is easy to keep clean if you have pets, children, or an extremely messy partner (or if you’re the clumsy one yourself!). It’s also fire resistant and doesn't release any toxic fumes when it is exposed to heat, which is definitely a huge plus.

Unlike fabrics, leather doesn’t wear or fade over time, but actually becomes softer and more attractive, meaning you’re less likely to want to replace it in the future and can safely spend your money elsewhere. If you purchase a new piece of furniture from a quality retailer like the Chesterfield Shop, you can expect to get fifteen-to-twenty years of use out of it, as opposed to the four to five years that someone might get from fabric made sofas and recliners. When you consider what you’re getting and how much you’re going to spend, there’s really no excuse for going with a sub-par material for your new furniture purchase!

6. 4 Common Mistakes People Make when Renovating their Bathroom

Your kitchen may be the official heart of the home, the central nerve center where the family meets over meals and performs tasks from paying bills to playing games, but your bathrooms are the rooms where you come again and again. Your bathroom is where you come to take relaxing baths, spend hours when ill and stare at that same ugly tile for half an hour as you get ready in the morning. That’s why bathroom renovations rival kitchen renovations on home makeover lists. Here are four common mistakes people make when renovating their bathroom. Spending Too Much How much is too much when you are renovating a bathroom? A good rule of thumb is not to spend more than five to ten percent of the home’s value on renovating a bathroom, since you can’t recoup more than a fraction of the investment when the house is sold later. The only exception is when you are adding a new bathroom to the house to bring it up to the neighborhood average. For example, if you have a three bedroom single bathroom ol...

Mini Storage Can Help Your De-Clutter Your Home

Your home has the ability to feel like an oasis in the middle of the city – your personal refuge from the traffic and congestion that always manages to clog up Thornhill. Unfortunately, for far too many people, this isn’t the case, as they come home to a cluttered and disorganized space. It isn’t that their homes are dirty. They’ve just accumulated a lot of junk, and too much of it can hinder their ability to let loose and relax after a long, hard day. Believe it or not, it’s true. Clutter has been found to affect the brain negatively. A recent study conducted by researchers at the Princeton University Neuroscience Institute found that the average person finds it difficult to concentrate in a chaotic environment. It also diminishes your ability to process information as the visual stimuli of clutter distract your brain. When exposed to clutter for longer periods of time, your brain can suffer from fatigue and result in negative mental experiences. If you’ve been feeling anxious or frus...

Spring Maintenance Tasks You Need to Start Considering

Spring is the season of renewal, so there really is no better time to start some maintenance tasks around your home that will keep your property looking its best. When it comes to spring maintenance, though, it’s a great idea to have your HOA take a look at your house’s exterior, from the roof all the way to the foundation, to make sure everything is in ideal condition for the upcoming summer season. Continue reading to learn more. Look for Damages Caused by the Winter The winter season can be brutal on your home, so the spring is the perfect opportunity to see if there has been any damage left behind from the wind, snow, ice, and freezing temperatures your house had to endure. A good place to start is by looking at the roof, which you can do surprisingly easily using binoculars rather than climbing up to it. You should keep an eye out for missing, curled, or loose shingles, damaged or bent flashing surrounding your chimney or any points where the house makes contact with the roof. Als...
