With winter officially here, your outdoor furniture probably isn't a priority right now, but if you want your patio table and chairs to last through freezing conditions you'll know that winterizing them is essential. You might have covered yours already, or maybe you've moved them into the garage to protect them until spring. Or, perhaps you've been tempted to try a hack circulating on social media - one that involves a certain household ingredient.
We're talking about olive oil, a kitchen staple that's been hailed by many for being the simple, cheap solution to prepare your outdoor furniture for colder temperatures. Supposedly, applying a thin layer of oil to your furniture works as a treatment that adds an extra layer of protection to the material and keeps it looking its best.
