Home decor taboo: Black bedding
While we’re on the subject of beds, you might have been saving pictures of chic beds with black duvets and pillows on Pinterest, but you might find that it’s a disaster when you finally do end up getting that black bedding.
It’ll look fantastic the first couple of days, but then every piece of dust or hair in the room will start to accumulate. So, instead, get black throw blankets or accent pillows that can help you get a similar look while saving you the headache of the never-ending cleaning process.
Home decor taboo: Popcorn ceilings
Removing popcorn ceilings is a relatively inexpensive yet dramatic change that can positively influence a space. Popcorn ceilings can cause competing textures in your living space and make it feel less open. Without these types of ceilings, your space becomes more elevated.
You also get an environment that lets the furniture and walls take the main focus while leaving the ceiling out of the picture. Trust us…if you have popcorn ceilings, remove this outdated trend immediately. You’ll thank us for it!

Excellent piece. I agree 100% with your list of design flaws. They are obvious; however, it will be
very helpful to folks. Thank you.
The barn door craze was always a wonder for me! I approve of every suggestion!!
Very helpful article, although I’m not guilty of any of those.
Very helpful information!
Bravo! So many people cling to bulky recliners, bulky sofas, etc. your list is a good start for upgrading. I would add, try to keep kitchen counters as decluttered as possible.
