Interior details play an important role. If you do not pay attention to them during repairs and decoration, you can ruin even the most expensive and stylish project.

So what exactly should you pay attention to?

Carpet on the wall

Gone are the days when carpets were actively used to decorate homes. Now it seems inappropriate and tasteless. If you want to decorate your walls with something, it is better to pay attention to paintings, mirrors or posters.

Knitted chair covers

If you still want to use something similar in the interior, then you should give preference to less flashy options that will perfectly match in texture and color. Otherwise, it will only make the design more old-fashioned.

Oilcloth instead of a tablecloth

It's much better to use woven napkins or to completely abandon the tablecloth. Oilcloth will make everything cheaper and also add carelessness.

What else should be removed from the interior?

Colorful prints that don't match each other will only strain and irritate the eye.

You should also remove blankets from armchairs and sofas. If you want to protect furniture from dirt, it is much better to use textile covers.
