Hello Friends....

What are some of the most common mistakes people make when doing their own decorating?

Thanks

Picking out a bunch of randomly attractive decor pieces without looking at the bigger picture

Hello there!

Here are the top five common decorating mistakes;

1. Don't choose paint colors before choosing rugs or fabrics; you'll make yourself crazy running around town with a paint chip measuring 1/2" x 1/2" in search of fabric that "matches".

2. Don't hang the dining room chandelier more than 36" to 42" above the dining room table - unless your goal is to show off the ceiling.

3. Don't hang artwork so high that eyes and necks are strained in the process of getting a glimpse.

4. Don't frame or mat a work of art with a vibrant or unusual color from the artwork itself.

5. Don't purchase small collectibles for display, since itty-bitty items lose their impact from a distance. When in doubt err on the side of too big and you won't be sorry. This goes for furniture too!

Hope this helps you. Thanks.

Well I guess, some of the most common mistakes are as follows:
- Color rendering or combination.
- Choice of furniture according to its specific theme.
- Structural plan mistake.
- Lighting.

Just my opinion.

Yeah You are saying rite, I agree.
