Interior whizz shares four common things which make your home look cheap – it’s bad news if you have vertical blinds
AN EXPERT has listed the four popular mistakes that instantly cheapen any home – and vertical blinds need to go.
When it comes to home decor, nobody wants their guests to leave with a tacky aftertaste, and now one pro has come to rescue with a few easy tips.
Offering a helping hand to those looking to transform their property this summer, the expert at MOC ARCHITECTURE revealed the common mistakes to avoid at all costs.
The first interior faux pas to steer clear of is vertical blinds – they might a popular choice for many, but according to the London-based whizz, they need to go.
Just as tacky, the guru said in the video, was keeping fairy lights on all year round.
The only exception is the festive period during Christmas.
Once you’ve removed the string of lights, the pro also advised to take a look at your staircase.
If there are dozens of mismatched artwork and photo frames that don’t go together, the interior whizz urged to rearrange these.
The look will be chaotic – and in turn, cheapen the feel of your home.
”If your photo wall is chaotic or disordered, that’s will exhaust you,” the guru noted.
But don’t be tempted to strip the walls naked and leave them with nothing, as this is another error that’s tacky.
However, it seems that not everyone will be taking these recommendations on board, as critics flocked to comments to share their thoughts.

”I actually think its cute when people have photo walls. Not everyone wants a house to look like a hotel,” one hit back.
Someone else claimed: ”I’ve got those blinds my home doesn’t look cheap.”
Another said: ”The home is where the heart belongs, not money and prestige.”
”urmm how about just let people live how they want. I don’t mean it horrible but some people like what they like,” an internet user reckoned.
A fifth chuckled: ”pretentious helmet.”
