Try to always replace the basic simplest handles to more beautiful and stylish. This will not only give the space a neat gloss, but also makes the objects of the situation more unique (which is especially relevant if you purchased them in the mass market).

Try to carefully consider the lighting scenarios: if there is a zone for reading and relaxing in the living room, it is necessary to place a label or sconce. A good work light is required in the cooking zone, and the chandelier above the table is an important component of the stylish dining group.
By the way, scarce lighting not only heshes the interior: dark corners also visually "eat" space.

5 Mass Market Decor
The recognizable decor from the mass market is the worst thing that can happen to your interior. Agree, it's a shame to buy a picture, say, in Ikea, and then meet it on the wall in every second cafe?

If you think that you can not do without items of decor from popular hypermarkets for home, try to choose less recognizable things and focus on those that you can at least partially change (say, insert your poster in a photo frame or choose the original candlestick for wax candle ).

And of course, it is not necessary to acquire inexpensive textiles from mass producers: he plays an atmosphere too important role, so take off the selection of curtains, carpets, plaid and decorative pillows with maximum attention.
6 Chaotic placement of trifles
Even the most expensive rack will instantly lose sight, if it is chaotic on his shelves to arrange all sorts of boxes, souvenirs from trips, incomprehensible to each other photo frames and other little things.

Of course, do not give up the cute heart of things and hide them in the distant corner. However, open storage and decor should be most organized and combined with one color gamut or stylistic direction.

7 Magnets on the refrigerator
What many can not refuse to refuse, a collection of magnets on the refrigerator. Pestro looks, dirty, creates visual noise, but it does not displace from most interiors. What is the reason? In the emotions that we get, considering our "trophies" from trips.

Get rid of the magnets on the refrigerator and not lose the emotional component in two ways. The first is to organize a special place for magnets: for example, a large magnetic board in a beautiful frame will help turn this "nightmare designer" into a stylish and unusual element of the decor. The second is to bring more functional souvenirs from trips. Say, cups or kitchen towels.

13 polyurethane "stucco"

If you still can't do without this element of registration, at least paint polyurethane parts in the color of the walls, so they will look more naturally and not so cheap.

14 Similarity classics
The desire to budgetfully issue an interior in the classic style often turns around that the situation looks like a fake under the classics. This style implies very expensive furniture, non-budgetary materials, as well as the use of certain recognizable techniques (the principle of symmetry, characteristic patterns, a separate bath).

15 Imitation Lofta
Another style, deceptive in its simplicity and not budget in practice - Loft. Those who believe that it is worth sticking to the wall imitation of bricks, to lend a coffee table from coarse boards - and here it is, an industrial style, an uncomfortable space is obtained at the exit, which is strongly given cheap.

If you are not sure about your designer abilities, refer to more relaxed, conconduous and neutral styles: Scandinavian, neoclassic, eco-style.

16 Purchase of all furniture and decor in one place
A common mistake is to purchase all the furniture, lamps and accessories from one manufacturer. You do not want your home to look like a typical picture from a furniture catalog?

Show a bit of ingenuity, combine products of different brands in the setting, and also do not forget about vintage trivia and handmade decor.

17 Inappropriate details
Elements instantly simplifying the situation are inappropriate parts. Abstract poster in the classic interior, a bulk crystal chandelier on a small concise kitchen, bright African prints in a minimalist space.

Bold combinations are appropriate only in specific styles - eclecticism, fusion - and require serious skill. If you are not particularly confident in your abilities, it is better to refer to more verified techniques.
