Breaking free from
old habits doesn't have to be a struggle. Unless you're an antique collector
cherishing a valuable collection, outdated soft furnishings from the past can
disrupt the overall aesthetic and ambiance of a well-decorated home.
The balance between
form and function significantly influences interior decorating trends. While
certain choices may seem appealing, they might not always be the most practical
or suitable.
We recommend bidding
farewell to the following outdated trends:
Discard the practice
of covering sofas with blankets and fabric. The trend of draping blankets over sofas, as
if attempting to shield them from pet hair, dust, or unsightly stains,
dominated the last decade. However, this approach no longer finds its place in
a stylish home.

Say goodbye to
beaded lamps and beaded curtains With their origins
in the 1970s, beaded lamps have inevitably become outdated. While they may have
once exuded a classic and attractive appeal, they no longer align with the
practicality required in a modern household. Their excessive adornments create
a sense of clutter and chaos, and the constant jingling of beads when reaching
for your bedside lamp can become bothersome.
Beaded curtains
originated in Asia in the ‘60s and were used as room partitions. However, their
trendiness soon became an overwhelming annoyance, with tangled strands causing
frustration.
It may well be time
to replace that lamp with something magnificent https://www.palluccifurniture.ca/lamps/
Abandon
oversized ornate furniture In the early 2000s,
homeowners aspired to create an ostentatious atmosphere, even in smaller living
spaces. Grand Tuscan-themed kitchens and huge wrought iron light fixtures
hanging from vaulted ceilings were part of this trend. Similarly, ornately
carved dark wooden furniture, such as chairs and four-poster beds, gained
popularity. However, it has now become apparent that purchasing a bed that
engulfs your entire bedroom is not the wisest choice.

Bid farewell to
graphic patterned floor tiles Like the tattoos of
the '90s, some trendy choices are more challenging to let go of than others.
This sentiment holds true for bold graphic patterned floor tiles, such as
dizzying geometric chevron patterns. The problem with these tiles is that they
can quickly become tiresome or clash with future design schemes. Additionally,
the cost of retiling a bathroom or kitchen is substantial. Opting for an
interestingly patterned mat is a better way to infuse color and vibrancy into
your space.
Fake flowers
and fruit have no place in your decor The '90s saw the
rise of fake flowers scattered throughout homes, but nothing compares to the
real thing. Instead of investing in giant silk plants, opt for natural,
low-maintenance plants that bring life to your surroundings. A couple of fresh
bouquets strategically placed around your home provide the perfect touch of nature
indoors.
Similarly, fake
fruit no longer holds any appeal in home decor. It only serves as a dust
collector and needs more authenticity than actual fruit.

Lace is no
longer in vogue Lace curtains
perfectly matched the frills and floral patterns of the '80s. However, they
proved to be impractical as the presence of holes in curtains defeats their
purpose. Lace, especially when excessively used, turned rooms into outdated
spaces reminiscent of a bygone era.
By bidding farewell
to these outdated trends, you can embrace a refreshed and modern aesthetic in
your home decor.
