Worst Decorating Trends To Avoid At All Costs

We understand that home design is all about personal taste. But sometimes we all get swept into a vacuum when trying to decorate our castles. There are some ideas that are so distasteful that they are almost on the grocery list of home decoration taboos. Below are a few examples.

Taxidermy

The idea of killing animals for sport is taboo. We live in an age of environmental awareness, so the idea of displaying something like this is just downright creepy. Taxidermy is definitely not a favorite among people, period.

Bean Bag Chairs

Nothing screams student dorm more than bean bag chairs. The original idea behind this outdated trend was to promote relaxation in the home. However, that got tossed out in favor of more traditional furniture ideas after 2020.

Covered Toilet Seats

When was the last time you saw one of these? In the age of germophobia, you should definitely rethink this one. Nothing looks more tacky or traps germs better than a bit of rug over your toilet seat.

Word Art

Sayings carved into walls may have enjoyed a nice burst of popularity in our homes. But this trend is slowly making its way out the door. And who can blame the public? Mottos like "Live, love, laugh" are getting repetitive and a bit woo-woo for anyone's personal taste.

Beaded Curtains

If you're a fan of hippie-style decorations, you just might enjoy beaded curtains. It's all a matter of color.

Something that's crystal clear or deep red might be least offensive. But if you share space with someone else, your privacy is definitely not guaranteed. In these cases, a simple door is more foolproof.
