Don’t worry, these are things we can fix pretty quickly and will elevate the look of your home right away!
This post is all about giving you home decor help with 3 easy things to avoid that are making your house look cheap!
Home Decor Help #1: Hide Your Cords
Nothing brings down the luxury and aesthetic of a living room quite like cord clutter. The cords dangling from the tv look messy and are distracting from the other decor in the room! Never fear, the process to move the cords behind the wall, is pretty simple and you’ll be so glad you did it!
Renters, I know what you’re about to say “ I can’t do that, I’m renting!”. Well, your landlord will either be happy you did this DIY project for them or you can easily patch the hole before moving out! This cable hiding kit is a lifesaver for making it look seamless!
Home Decor Help #2: No More Fridge Art
I know you love little Tommy and all 50 of his paintings but it’s definitely making your fridge and kitchen look cheap, sorry! If you’re hoping for a more high-end look, take everything off the fridge before your guests come over! While you’re at it, the fridge could probably use a wipe down of those little fingerprints too! Or nose prints if you’re a dog lover like me!

Instead, try displaying your children’s art somewhere pre-designated like a mudroom or a playroom or their bedroom with one of these organized systems.
Home Decor Help #3: Clutter Everywhere Distracts The Eye
You probably saw this one coming but clutter is not the vibe we are looking for! Everything in your house should have a home. Do you know what I mean?
Your bills do not live on your table and your glass of red from last night isn’t making a new home on the coffee table. The first step towards a more elegant-looking home is decluttering. This will give your space a more expensive and luxurious feel!

Now that you have read this post, you know 3 easy mistakes you can avoid when decorating and living in your home. You will automatically elevate the decor of your house just by implementing these three tips! Happy decorating my friends!
