If you're like most people, you probably enjoy decorating your home. But even if you've got a great eye for decorating and style, it's easy to make some common mistakes when designing spaces. 

That's because any room can look amazing if it's put together with the right combination of colours, furniture and accessories. And while these design mistakes may seem small—they sure do add up after a while! —they can distract from the overall experience of a space or take away from its intended purpose. 

Over-cluttering a space

Over-cluttering the available space: While some people may disagree with this, I think it’s important to keep in mind that an over-cluttered space isn't just unattractive—it can also, be dangerous. If you have too many items in one area and they're all out of place, it could cause someone to trip or accidentally knock over the lamp they were reaching for and breaking their neck.

Too much furniture: If you buy too many pieces of furniture for your home, you run the risk of having too much stuff everywhere! Once again, this can lead to injury. You can also cause damage if something is knocked over or moved by accident (like when someone steps on something).

Not testing paint colours

You should always test colours before painting a room. Colour is one of the most important elements in a design, and if you don't know what colours will work best for your space, choosing the colour could make or break it. When choosing paint colours, think about how they will look with other elements in the room (like furniture), as well a their impact on light and shadowing.

Using too many patterns

When you're decorating your home, it's important to use the right amount of patterns. If there are too many patterns, you'll end up with a cluttered look that doesn't make sense or feel organized. A good rule of thumb is not to have more than one pattern per room in any one colour scheme. On the other hand, if you're going for a neutral palette (white walls with accents), then using more than two different styles would be fine—but stick to two shades per wall colour instead of three or four different ones.

Picking the wrong light fixtures

Picking the wrong light fixtures is one of the most common interior design mistakes. If you're going to spend money on something like a chandelier, make sure it will fit with your room's style and colour scheme. If you want to brighten your lighting in a small space, add interesting floor lamps instead of hanging them from the ceiling because they'll have more impact on how things look when lit up. (and this goes for any other type of fixture.)

Choosing low-quality furniture

Choosing low-quality furniture is one of the most common interior design mistakes. It's easy to get carried away with buying a new piece of furniture and not realizing that you're spending a lot more money than it's worth.You might think that buying cheap furniture is an easy way to save money, but this isn't true at all! You will end up wasting your money on something that doesn't last long enough, or can be easily damaged by children or pets. Instead of saving money by choosing cheaper options, why not spend more and get something durable? The best thing about quality items is that they'll last longer than their cheaper counterparts!
