Happy 2022! We have entered a New Year and let’s look forward to all that is to come. With all of the new design trends in store, let’s leave the following seven decorating trends in 2021.

Word Art

Word art is definitely an outdated decorating trend. If you have any word art in your home, it is ok consider a simple upgrade. Word art was very popular earlier, but do we truly need to be reminded to “Live, Love, and Laugh”.

Gray Everything

Gray has been very popular, but please leave gray in 2021. Having all gray furniture, gray cabinets, and gray linens are too much. There are tons of colors and hues to select from. Although I love the clean and modern look of gray, sometimes color can add a nice element to a space.

Cluttered Rooms

As we adapt to a more minimalism home, lets ditch the overly cluttered rooms. Clutter gives the illusion of sloppiness. An uncluttered room allows the eyes to focus on the items you want display.

Shiplap

Although shiplap was once very popular, its popularity is fading. Shiplap is wood paneling which became popular due to many HGTV shows. Instead of shiplap, opt for beautiful wallpaper.

Mid-Century Modern

Mid-century modern designs included elements of the 1950s and 1960s. These elements were used to create a unique trend which was once very popular.

Matching Furniture

It was once considered normal to purchase all of the pieces in a furniture line. Rooms looked like they were picked straight from a furniture store display. Matching furniture doesn’t all a person to display their own personal style. Be creative by mixing and matching pieces, colors, and styles.

Sliding Barn Doors

The popularity of barn doors is decreasing fading. Many people included barn doors in their new home builds. Lately, people are replacing them with traditional doors.
