Decorating Faux Pas

HGTV's 25 Decorating Mistakes from Blissfully Domestic by Rhoda "Did you happen to catch this HGTV special recently? Evidently there are 25 Decorating Mistakes that we absolutely should not do. The red print is Rhonda~the black responses in parentheses are from me. Fake flowers and plants (I confess, I totally disagree with this one. Love the real thing of course but practically speaking, who can afford that in every room in the house all the time? I go into so many houses that have the most dreadful real plants. No thanks for me..I think it is personal preference as long as you buy high quality silks you will be fine. Too many pillows, on the bed or sofa (yes, I'm guilty of this one too) Knick-knack overload (This describes the little statues, etc. or doggie collections to me. Accessories that are larger and make a statement are different. Still keep decluttering all the time though.) Fear of color (apparently, this is not one of my problems) Ignoring windows (I do have a problem with elaborate window coverings personally) Pushed back furniture (don't do this for the most part, if there's room to float, I do it) Tacky couch covers (they were talking clear plastic, can you imagine? does anyone do that anymore? ) Frames too high (this is a pet peeve of mine too) Improper lighting (I think I have this one covered just fine) Floating rugs (nope, not a problem either) Too many colors/patterns (love color & patterns, but I think I'm under control) Furniture that doesn't fit (I think they mean oversized & too much in one room) Following fads (I have been a wee bit guilty of following some fads, but only the good ones) Everything matches (this seemed to be too much of one color in a room, everything the same color). Lack of traffic flow (not good for directing foot traffic in a room, I'm OK with this one) Uncomfortable dining room chairs (mine are pretty bad I must confess.) Too formal (nope, I'm not that formal in any room) Keeping something you hate (nope, I will not have anything out that I hate) Lopsided furnishings (this is balance in a room, not having too much on any one side) Outdated accessories (No ducks on a stick..OK?) Themes (I'm not much for themes) Undressed cables (and wires..put them out of sight) Ignoring the foyer (very important) Too many family photos (haves some around but not in every room) Toilet rugs (hate 'em and no toilet seat covers either. Ugh!)" OK, true confession time. How did you do?
