Sometimes, even after a high-quality and thorough cleaning, the kitchen may still seem unkempt, cluttered and dirty.
The reason is not that you are a bad housewife and do not know how to clean: the point is that perhaps you made mistakes when decorating the kitchen.
However, they can always be corrected, says designer Yulia Tychino, an expert at the online publication BelNovosti.
What are the 3 most common mistakes?
You store too many items on your countertop.
The kitchen space should be provided with enough storage space so that every item has a place to "hide".
Otherwise, you will simply create the impression of a cluttered kitchen.
If you don't use any gadgets at all, you should put them away. In this case, the kitchen will look more neat and clean.
Plenty of open shelving
In photographs, such storage systems look tempting: it seems that the kitchen will become cozy, "homey" and beautiful. However, it is worth understanding that in reality the kitchen will not look like this.
Over time, things will accumulate on open shelves that will spoil the appearance. As a result, instead of a feeling of coziness, we will have a banal mess in the kitchen.
A couple of open shelves can be left for functional decor. However, the closed storage system should dominate.
Poor quality or poorly maintained textiles
No kitchen will look better if you see ugly curtains, dirty towels and strange tablecloths. Textiles play an important role in the atmosphere.
If you don't choose it in the best way, the space will look untidy.
