Below we look at some of the most common home decorating mistakes and how you can fix

Take A Look At Your Rugs

The most customary mistake known by interior designers is the placement and size of rugs in a space. Rugs that are too small can have a room looking out of scale and a rug cutting through furniture at odd angles can have the place looking rather unbalanced.

Don’t Overdo It With Pillows & Throws

Haven’t you heard the expression; less is more! Sometimes we can find ourselves drowning in fluffy blankets and pillows during the winter. While this is comfortable, it can often take up a lot of space in your living area and have it feeling very hectic. Not to mention throws can gather a lot of dust while sitting around in your home.

How To Fix This:

Blocking Natural Lighting

Another very common but also very influential mistake when decorating home interiors is to avoid blocking any natural light coming in from windows, sliding doors or openings in your home. Blocking natural lighting is the biggest thing to make a room look dull and uncomfortable to inhabit. This tip can also lessen the need for lights and lamps in your home which might also help with those electricity bills!

How To Fix This:

Everything Doesn’t Have To Be White

A preconceived notion about interior design spaces is that walls and furniture must be painted white in order to maximize lighting and make the room feeling airy. This is, in fact, incorrect and often just ends up making your home interior seem dull and lifeless.

How To Fix This:

Placing Furniture Next To Walls

For smaller rooms which are tight of space, the logical thought is to push all your furniture against the walls of the room to create a bigger area in the middle. However interior designers will agree that this can often make the room look even smaller. By playing on the idea of space behind the furniture you can, in fact, make a room feeling airier.
