decoration is really a headache for novices because there are too many details involved, and if you are not careful, you will get into a trap. Therefore, this has led to many people repent and suffer a lot after moving in after the first time to decorate their new house. This issue will list 6 decoration details that are easy to ignore based on the experience of netizens. It is recommended to take a look and avoid pitfalls in advance!
1. Regret that the kitchen has made double trough
In the kitchen decoration process, the choice of sink is particularly important. Generally, sinks are divided into single and double sinks. My house has double sinks, one large and one small, but the space in each tank is actually not large. Therefore, it is very annoying when washing the pot every time. If the pot cannot be placed, it can only be held on top. However, when the faucet is turned on, it is easy to splash water everywhere. Sometimes, if the water is accidentally blown, it will make you wet all over.
Recommendation: If cannot implement large double tanks, it is better to install a large single tank to wash the pot without pressure. When you need to drain, place a drain rack on the sink, so that it does not occupy the desktop space at all. It can even add water to the cutting board, which is very convenient when cutting fruits and vegetables.
2. Regret to install skirting board
One of the most regretful decisions to decorate is to install trousers. The protruding skirting board makes people very depressed. Just don’t just put the furniture against the wall, and the protruding parts are used to accumulate dust, which makes them look dirty. Some materials may crack if they are not selected properly, affecting the appearance of the home.
Suggestion: If you are decorating now, you can consider making hidden skirtings, also known as embedded skirtings. The overall appearance is simple and simple, and there are no sanitary dead corners to hide dirt and dirt, which is very easy to clean. The key is that it can also protect the integrity of the wall. However, it should be noted that the construction of hidden skirting lines will be more complicated and test the workers' skills, so the overall cost is high.
3. I regret that the shoe cabinet is not customized for the whole house
When I was decorating my home, I bought the shoe cabinet online, so after I actually used it, I realized that such a shoe cabinet was not easy to use at all. The depth is not enough that some large-size shoes cannot be put in, while some shoes can be put in at the right depth, and the height exceeds the limit height of the compartment, and in the end they end up being "homeless". Over time, the entrance hall was filled with a pair of shoes, which greatly affected the beauty and even had a peculiar smell.
Suggestion: shoe cabinet or whole-house customization will be more suitable, because whole-house customization can maximize storage space and be most user-friendly according to your personal needs. For example, the shoe cabinet can be topped, which can store more shoes or other items. Leave a gap below the shoe cabinet and put some shoes you often wear so that you won’t throw the shoes scattered on the ground in the entrance hall. You can even add a full-length mirror and a clothes hanger area to the shoe cabinet as needed.
4. I regret following the trend. The whole house uses gray
. At that time, high-end gray was popular all over the house. I never thought that the price of blindly following the trend would make my home "dead". Because I chose dark gray floor tiles, the color matching of the whole house is mainly gray, with gray curtains and gray carpets. Some people even turned gray regardless of the walls. Finally, in the afternoon, I felt uncomfortable not turning on the lights, and it was dark and depressing.
Recommendation: Small apartments or families with poor lighting should not follow the trend and choose any high-end gray system, which is completely unpractical. Old man try to choose a light-colored theme color, which is healing and gentle, and visually makes people feel that the space has become larger and the light has become brighter.
5. Regret installed a rock slab integrated basin
Although the rock slab integrated basin is very beautiful, it is very unpractical. is based on the strong hardness of the rock slab itself and cannot be curvature, so the drainage is particularly slow and it is easy to retain water. Some rock slabs have shallow depths in their own right, so water can easily splash out of the surface.
In addition, the four right angles of the rock slab integrated basin are completely sanitary dead corners. If you don’t clean it for half a month, you will already have yellowing marks.The most important thing is that the so-called integrated basin is just glued, so the glue will turn yellow and moldy over time, and even the washbasin leaks or falls off due to the aging of the glue.
Suggestion: If is not particularly color control and takes practicality as the main starting point, I suggest that you choose a ceramic integrated basin, which is a real integrated basin. Don’t worry about glue issues. Moreover, it is easy to get started, easy to clean, and there will be no frequent accumulation of water. The overall price is cheaper than the integrated rock slab basin and is more cost-effective.
6. I regret buying a cheap technology cloth sofa
When the technology cloth sofa came out, many owners and friends who like leather sofas but were persuaded to give up were very happy. They thought that their appearance was comparable to genuine leather and could be waterproof and stain-proof. The price was only two or three thousand, which was the king of cost-effectiveness. However, after using it for 2 years, I found that the technology cloth sofa I bought at home was not good. Technology cloth, to put it bluntly, is not that magical. The so-called technology cloth is nothing more than polyester fabric and a three-proof coating. After two years of use, it started to peel off the skin and burst out the skin. It kept falling off the slag. It was not durable at all, and it could not be washed if it was dirty.
Suggestion: Everything has good and bad, and technology cloth sofas are also divided into high-quality and relatively poor. If you want to use technology leather cloth below 3,000, don’t expect it to be durable. The sofa quality of the technology velvet and technology matte cloth that will be launched later will be better. In short, compared to genuine leather sofas, good-quality technology fabric sofas do have a certain cost-effectiveness. The texture of genuine leather and the feel of fabrics, so you don’t have to worry about the sofa being scratched by cat claws at home.
