Whether their time have faded or they look cheap, these are the things home designers said you shouldn’t pick anymore for your home or just get rid off. So, it’s organizing time and time for new decisions, check out 10 thing you should stop buying for your home:
1. Dark and heavy curtains
More on more people search for a bright place with lots of natural light nowadays. While big windows, mirrors, light furniture or thin and white curtains can help create a bright space, heavy and dark curtains will keep that beautiful natural light away from you.
2. White light bulbs
Spending more time at home we realized the importance of a cozy space for you and your guests. A big cozy factor for a space is the warm yellow light, creating the perfect mood for any space. Instead, the white light is stronger for the eyes and creates a cold space with less personality.
3. Pillows that match your sofa
Give contrast and color to any room of your home. Play with different shapes, textures and shades on your sofa and find the perfect pillows that will give contrast and work out with the rest of the colors in that room.
4. Fake plants
We all loved to make our own home gardens this season and caring for a plant can be super fun and dreamy. Moreover, gardening is super relaxing and a great hobby! So, choose natural plants that have great benefits for the air in your home and rid of the fake plants, especially the ones that look cheap.
5. Accent walls
These accent walls are over – from colorful walls, to wooden or brick walls, just create something easier and more versatile instead. O focal wall with a bookcase, a gallery wall or some statement art pieces are the perfect and trendy solutions.
6. Rugs that are too small
A rug should include perfectly an area of a room, it works as a great room divider and its add contrast and personality. If you choose one that’s too small for the space the whole room will feel cheap. So, buy a bigger one or just toss the small one.
7. An ”one tile option” bathroom
The boring space with just one tile option for the whole room is simply outdated. We have so many options now and we have to get creative! Choose separate tiles for the shower area and also divide better the floor and walls with contrasting tiles. This way everything will look perfectly divided and dreamier.
8. Basic and boring tiles for your bathroom or kitchen
That also goes for the tiles, get more creative with shapes, colors or textures. Forget about basic beige, white or gray tiles for your bathroom and kitchen. Instead, mix and match different shades of a color and also patterns and tile textures.
9. A TV placed above the fireplace
The fireplace is a focal point of a space like the living room and so is the TV area. If you mix these two together you will steal their shine as individuals and also a fire will distract you from the screen. Instead, choose a cabinet for your TV and style your fireplace with with art, candles, flowers and other dreamy deco elements.
10. Matching couch sets
A room won’t have that much personality with two matching sofas or a sofa and two matching armchairs. Instead, mix and match your furniture by choosing different shades of a color, the same styles, time period or fabrics.
