Fortunately, rules were meant to be broken.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a look at common home design\u00a0phobias you can overcome to get creative in your space.<\/p>\n<h3>Don\u2019t be afraid of: Wallpaper<\/h3>\n<p>Call it retro, but wallpaper has made a comeback. Thanks to modern-day design, you\u2019re able to change\u00a0your wallpaper choice as often\u00a0as your hair color.<\/p>\n<p>Stick-and-peel options allow you to try a new design every couple of weeks until you find the perfect match. When you do, outfit the space in your favorite decor to bring the wallpaper to life, or let it stand alone and shine.<\/p>\n<h3>Don\u2019t be afraid of: White decor<\/h3>\n<p>While a mixture of bold colors can strike fear in a few, the absence of color altogether makes most homeowners tremble. White is often synonymous with what they call a commercial look because it can become perceived as sterile.<\/p>\n<p>Try dipping a toe in the water by picking a strong statement piece, like a white sofa or dining table. Once you\u2019ve chosen one unique piece of furniture, complement it with lighting, linens, and decor in shades of white.<\/p>\n<p>The idea is to slowly transition into a bright white haven, and before long you\u2019ll forget your phobia all together.<\/p>\n<h3>Don\u2019t be afraid of: Layering area rugs<\/h3>\n<p>One of our favorite new trends is the idea of layering decor. You can instantly brighten and boost any room\u2019s design factor in a matter of minutes by adding another area rug.<\/p>\n<p>If you have a large woven rug in your living room, consider adding a cowhide on top for a chic update. The same can be done for several small rugs. Choose variations in color, textures, or patterns to keep the look fresh and interesting.<\/p>\n<h3>Don\u2019t be afraid of: Big furniture in a small space<\/h3>\n<p>This is an understandable phobia. When you make a move into a smaller space with a king-size mattress, a 12-seater dining table, and an ottoman the size of your bathtub, it may seem overwhelming at first.<\/p>\n<p>Try choosing one large piece to keep, and make it a focal point. Your large ottoman can also serve as a coffee table in the center of your living room, or additional seating during a housewarming party. Your king-size bed may only require one nightstand to create a cozy corner in the bedroom.<\/p>\n<p>And remember: With a key piece of furniture, it\u2019s important to keep the rest of the room light and airy. Too much decor can get stuffy.<span style=\"line-height: 1.6em;\">\u00a0<\/span><em style=\"line-height: 1.6em;\">&#8211;\u00a0Zillow<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Interested in home remodeling?\u00a0Contact<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/medinaexteriors.com\/remodeling-experts\/\">Medina Exteriors<\/a>\u00a0today, (330)591-4040<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Home Remodeling | Overcoming Home Decor Phobias Home Remodeling |\u00a0We\u2019ve all paid mind to those pesky design rules: Don\u2019t use [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":3739,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1026,1027],"tags":[1010],"class_list":["post-4214","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-home-remodeling","category-home-remodeling-trends","tag-home-remodeling-2"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v17.8 (Yoast SEO v28.8) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Home Remodeling | Overcoming Home Decor Phobias<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Home Remodeling | Medina Exteriors and Remodeling - 4029 Jefferson St, Medina, OH | Have questions?
