Berry stains on outdoor furniture cushions can be stubborn, but with the right techniques, you can restore them to their original condition. Here’s a step-by-step guide to effectively remove berry stains:

1. Blot Immediately: As soon as you notice the stain, gently blot it with a clean cloth or paper towel to absorb excess juice. Avoid rubbing, as this can spread the stain.

2. Prepare a Cleaning Solution: Mix 1 tablespoon of dish soap with 2 cups of warm water. For tougher stains, add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar or baking soda to the mixture.

3. Apply the Solution: Dip a soft brush or sponge into the solution and gently scrub the stained area in circular motions. Let it sit for 5–10 minutes to break down the stain.

4. Rinse Thoroughly: Use a damp cloth to rinse the area with clean water. Repeat if necessary until the stain is gone.

5. Dry Completely: Allow the cushion to air-dry in the sun, as sunlight can help neutralize lingering odors and bacteria.

For persistent stains, consider using a commercial upholstery cleaner or oxygen-based bleach. Always test any cleaner on a small, hidden area first to avoid discoloration. With these simple steps, your outdoor cushions will look fresh and stain-free again!
