5 common decor mistakes that make your home look cheap

in5points
Cluttered shoe racks at the entrance make a home look tacky—replace with closed racks for a clean look.
Exposed cords from devices create clutter—conceal them within walls or below tables for a polished appearance.
Generic artwork on walls strips character—choose one or two classic pieces like sculptural art for accent walls.
Short curtains cheapen a room and shrink visual space—use floor-length sheer or block curtains instead.
Poor lighting is a major reason Indian homes lack a polished vibe—upgrade to warm, layered lighting.
