Everybody loves to buy new furniture and new décor accessories for our home. If a glass of wine falls to our sofa or if we damage other pieces for some reason, we tend to blame the brand and its quality, right? Well, the truth is that some of us don’t know how to take care of our furniture so we blame others.
