Perhaps every housewife dreams of making her home more comfortable. However, desires often do not coincide with reality. Not many are born with designer inclinations and can easily and competently place accents in the interior. We have collected 10 major mistakes people make when trying to make their home more comfortable.
1. Wrong accent
Be wary of trying to bring freshness to an interior with bright, eye-catching details. They need to be chosen based on the general style of the interior. Sometimes, one unfortunate, too bright, cheap or lurid painting can ruin everything. If you are not sure how this or that element will fit into the structure of the room, it is better to completely abandon its use.
2. Cheap sockets and switches
Of course, repairs are expensive, and everyone wants to save money on something. Just do not save on sockets and switches. Cheap parts quickly fail, change color, and the plastic they are made of can dry out and break or crumble. The Novate.ru editors recommend paying more attention to such trifles.
3. Plastic bottles
Whenever possible, minimize the number of plastic bottles and cellophane in your kitchen. We are talking about bottles with oil, dishwashing detergent, packages of pasta and cereals. These packages look messy and create a messy feeling in the kitchen. If possible, replace them with purchased containers and dispensers made of glass or thick plastic.
4. Crystal Chandelier
The crystal chandelier is a thing of the past, especially when it comes to modern living spaces. So, fans of this crystal product or its imitation are better off abandoning it, preferring more modern models. You should choose a chandelier based on the size and style of the room. Remember, it should emphasize, but not overload, the interior of the room.
5. Textile
If you are trying to save on textile details, then it is better to refuse them altogether. When choosing textiles, rely primarily on quality. Inexpensive blankets, bedding and curtains will quickly lose their color and appearance. They will turn into regular rags that will hardly improve the look of your space.
6. Cornice
The cornice is another detail that we attach little importance to when choosing. Cheap plastic curtain rods will not add comfort to the room. Moreover, such a curtain rod can reduce the cost of the appearance of good curtains. Therefore, if you have already forked out for good curtains, the cornice should be appropriate.
7. Cheap Stickers
Yes, vinyl stickers can solve some problems, such as defects in wallpaper and protruding wires, but such decor is simply inappropriate in some spaces. The stickers are eye-catching but cheap and childish. Therefore, if you need to hide something, move furniture or use good pictures.
8. Blankets
The habit of covering furniture with rugs is another old trick that went out of fashion many years ago. Previously, this made sense, because the upholstery of furniture did not tolerate cleaning, but new modern materials can repel moisture and are easy to clean. If you want to use a blanket, choose a thin, light and fluffy one and do not completely cover the furniture with it, just throw it on one side.

9. Complex design
If you do not have any skills in creating a design project, do not undertake to implement complex ideas in your interior. If you want something special, ask a professional who will make a plan for you and tell you what to buy. Well, if the services of a designer are not on the list of your expenses, stop at something simple.
10. Clutter on the shelves
It is clear that the shelves are meant for storing things, but they should not be allowed to be a mess. Especially, this applies to open shelves, which are always in sight and directly affect the appearance of the room. To keep the shelves tidy, store things in beautiful decorative boxes and baskets. It is better that they are designed in the same style.
