Life can get messy, whether it's an accidental spill, a late-night snack mishap, or a little bit of unexpected fun. Stains on your furniture or bedding not only disrupt the aesthetic of your home but can also create stress around keeping everything clean and fresh. Fortunately, with the right tools and a little preparation, protecting your space from spills and stains can be simple and effective.

In this post, we’ll walk you through practical strategies to protect your furniture and bedding from spills and stains, with a special focus on one must-have product: Splash Blanket—the waterproof solution you didn’t know you needed!

1. Act Fast: Time is Everything

When it comes to spills, the quicker you act, the better. A spill that’s left unchecked can seep into fabrics and become much harder to remove over time. The first step is to blot, not rub, the affected area with a clean cloth. Rubbing can push the liquid deeper into the fabric, making it more difficult to clean.

2. Waterproof Blankets: A Simple and Effective Solution

For everyday spills—whether it’s coffee, water, or something a bit messier—having a waterproof blanket like Splash Blanket can save you time and effort. These blankets are designed to protect your furniture and bedding, absorbing up to 1L of liquid without letting it seep through. The waterproof internal layer ensures that no liquid will reach your mattress or upholstery, which can often be expensive and difficult to clean. Whether it’s a nightly routine, a spontaneous movie night, or an intimate occasion, Splash Blanket offers an easy-to-use, non-intrusive layer of protection.

3. Use Bed Protectors for Extra Defense

If you want to be extra cautious, consider investing in additional protectors such as waterproof fitted sheets. These can add an extra layer of defence against accidental spills, especially on delicate materials that can stain easily. Splash Blankets Fitted Sheet Range can be placed on top of your mattress, making it a quick and versatile fix.

4. Choose Stain-Resistant Fabrics

When shopping for new furniture or bedding, look for materials that are naturally stain-resistant or easy to clean. Fabrics such as microfiber, leather, or tightly woven cotton are often better at repelling liquids. You can also treat your fabrics with a stain-resistant spray to further protect them.

5. Laundry and Cleaning: Maintaining a Fresh, Clean Home

Even with the best precautions, occasional stains may still happen. Regularly cleaning your furniture and bedding is essential to maintaining a fresh, hygienic environment. If a spill does occur, clean it up promptly according to the manufacturer’s instructions for your materials. And remember, Splash Blanket is incredibly easy to clean! Just toss it in the washing machine (following care instructions), and it’ll be as good as new, ready to protect you again.
