One way or another, mistakes are made when building or just decorating a house. But this must not be the reason for you to just be bummed out. Find out what solutions you can do for this simple or big mishaps and at the same time know what you can do to prevent it. HGTV details tips on how you can amend these home mistakes.
1: Fake Flowers
Fake flowers are like the in thing from the 90s and even though it's already 2016, people are still buying this type of ornament to replace fresh flowers. But let's admit it, fake flowers just don't complement a great house well.
Solution: What you can do instead is to put in fruits to replace the fake flowers. This better alternative looks succulent and could make a good centerpiece too.
2. Too Many Knickknacks
Are you guilty about putting in so much accessories and ornaments in your home? And do you think that it is a bit "too much?"
Solution: The simple solution to this chaos is to simply put out some and only flaunt what you like. Another thing that the outlet shared is to "rotate what you have, and if you really like something but it's been out for a while, store it for a bit. You don't have to have it all out at once and every surface should not be covered. Edit your collections so they look good as a small grouping."
3. Fear of Color
Most people are too scared to play with color and this results to homes looking too safe, pale, or even boring. This should not be the case even if you're aiming for a minimalist and clean design, a small pop of color will help liven up your room.
Solution: "Try a paint color in the room to make sure you like it and that it works with the space," based on the article. "Live with it at various times of the day as a painted wall will appear different in the morning, afternoon and at night. If you don't like it, paint over it. Color is a great punctuation and doesn't have to be overbearing."
