Are You Making These 4 Decorating Mistakes?
April 28, 2015 | sack
Do you have a room in your home that just feels off, though you can’t pinpoint the reason why? You might be guilty of one of these all-too-common interior decorating mistakes.
- Getting too matchy-matchy. While you want the items in a room to coordinate with one another, you don’t want to create a themed room. No matter how much you love the color purple, if you decorate your living room entirely in purple, it can feel quite overwhelming.
- Creating roadblocks in a room. No matter how much you want your sofa to sit under a window, you have to work with the natural flow of the room rather than your specific ideas. Rearrange furniture until you can move through the room comfortably.
- Squeezing in too many pieces. Even if your parents gift you their old bedroom set, don’t feel obligated to use it unless it actually fits in your space.
- Forgetting the little things. Seemingly small details like curtain rods, framed photos, and lighting help make a big impact on a room, and your home isn’t complete without them!
