Too Much Theme
There no question that having a theme for your room decor will create a good look for your bedroom, but hereโs the deal. Themes arenโt exactly the best idea to put to use when talking about your home. Home decor is all about picking the right style, something that resonates with you. But if you end up having way too many of your favorite things (overstuffed with mirrors, collectibles, etc.) you might take away from its true beauty.

Crammed Foyer
Ideally, your foyer should be a space that brings you peace, and truly gives you the feeling of being home. Your foyer should have a simple decor to it. When you bring in too many pieces of furniture, accents, wall art, or even vases, it might start feeling heavy. This would take away from the peace and make it look extremely unorganized.

Typical Art
Weโre not questioning anybodyโs art choice but think about it. Having artworks that are mass produced might not be the best choice when creating an elegant and luxurious home decor. You donโt necessarily have to opt for expensive artworks. Find local artists who can create original and beautiful paintings that suit your style.

Unappealing Lights
Ideally, a nice and cozy space should have soft lights. Imagine you were to walk into a room that had blinding lights. It would seem tacky and extremely overwhelming, right? So, depending on your space, you want to change your light settings. Dim lights should not be your first choice for living or dining spaces, but can be great for bedrooms. Just like that, a linear hallway should have lights running throughout for a proper circulation that doesnโt feel heavy.
