So, for novices who have never decorated before, it is naturally safer to listen to the opinions of people who have experienced it and follow the footsteps of others in decorating.

However, if you have no discernment, those seemingly reasonable suggestions,There are often big pitfalls hidden. Only after you move in can you know how painful it is.

1. Change the color of the entrance door yourself

The liver-colored door is too ugly, and replacing it will cost thousands of dollars. What should I do?

If someone tells you that buying some paint to change the color of the entrance door is not only very simple, but also costs only more than 100 yuan, I believe you will agree.

But in fact, if you really change the color of the entrance door, you will most likely regret it.It can even be so severe that the entire door is destroyed.

1) Tired to collapse:Whether it\’s sanding or painting, it\’s a waste of hands. I can\’t lift my arms at the end of the day, which is a pain.

2) The effect is ugly:The final effect of the paint often depends on the base layer treatment and each paint treatment. If one step is not done well, the subsequent effects will become worse.

Suggestion: The color of the entrance door can be changed, but you must find a professional master. The cost is not expensive, about 200~300 yuan is enough. Don’t bother yourself.

2. The more sockets in the kitchen, the better

Visitor:There are many small appliances in the kitchen. Once there are too few sockets, it will be particularly inconvenient to use later. You must leave a few more during decoration.

To be honest, it is indeed necessary to leave a few more sockets in the kitchen, but most families, for the sake of appearance,But the details are ignored, so that multiple sockets are crowded together.

The result of this approach is that all small household appliances will be crowded together, let alone normal use, and even the extra sockets will remain idle.

So, the correct approach should be to reserve the sockets separately,Although it is not very beautiful, it is very convenient to use.

In addition, you can also install slide rail sockets in the kitchen, which can also avoid the embarrassment of small appliances being crowded together, but the price is a bit more expensive.

3. The refrigerator is built into the cabinet

Come here:Building the refrigerator into the cabinet can make the space more integrated Beautiful, and the space above the refrigerator is not wasted.

The built-in refrigerator design is indeed very popular, and visually it will not The refrigerator is too big and awkward. But not all refrigerators can be embedded, and there are still some hidden problems.

For example, after the refrigerator is embedded in the cabinet, the refrigerator door cannot be fully opened, causing the internal drawer to get stuck, which then becomes a pain point.

Another example is that the refrigerator door and the upper cabinet door panel are asymmetrical, resulting in gap deviation, which destroys the overall aesthetics.

Suggestion:For built-in refrigerator design, you must choose a zero-built-in refrigerator, and the size must be checked again and again. Otherwise, problems may easily occur.

4. Curtains should be made into curtain boxes

Come here:Even if there is no ceiling at home, you still need to make a curtain box for the curtains , not only for appearance, but also to avoid light leakage.

In fact, the root cause of light leakage from curtains is not whether there isMaking curtain boxes is directly related to curtain tracks and hooks.

Simply put, if the curtain track and hooks are not selected well, even if a curtain box is made, there will still be light leakage problems later.

Suggestion:Curtain boxes can be made, but the most important thing is to choose \”crossover\” Track\” and \”Korean lifting hook\”, these two are the key to preventing light leakage.

5. Wardrobe door-to-top design

People who have been here: Nowadays, it is popular to design a wardrobe with one door to the top, which is both simple and visually extending. No one makes wall cabinets alone anymore.

The wardrobe is not very beautiful if it is made as a wall cabinet alone. But the door-to-top design is not as good as you think. Once the cabinet door exceeds 2 meters , you will face deformation problems later, even if you install a straightener on the cabinet door, it will be useless.

In addition, the wardrobe \”rebounder\” is also a big pitfall.Can\’t close, can\’t pop out, the service life is extremely short, no matter how you use it, it will be uncomfortable.

Suggestion:You can design segmented cabinet doors for the wardrobe, which can completely avoid deformation problems; as for the handles, you can make them invisible by milling slots.

People who have been here:Pave the living room and dining room floor tiles to the balcony, kitchen and bedroom , no threshold stone is needed at the door, which is beautiful and atmospheric.

Compared to wooden floors, laying floor tiles throughout the house is indeed more worry-free and durable. If you can accept its cold feeling, it is much more practical than wooden floors.

But if you meet an unreliable master, or you fail to make your requirements clear to the master,Then it will become a \”disaster\”, no matter how ugly it looks.

Suggestion:Regardless of whether the floor tiles are to be laid all the way through, you must make it clear to the master before construction. It is best to ask the merchant to produce a floor paving drawing to avoid wrangling.

7. The washing machine is hidden in the cabinet

People who have been here: Hiding the washing machine in the cabinet can make the space tidier and prevent the washing machine from being exposed to sunlight.

If you just look at this design from the perspective of appearance, it is indeed very good;But from a life perspective, it is a piece of cake.

1) Drying clothes is not conducive to machine heat dissipation. Over time, it may affect the service life of the machine and even cause safety hazards.

2) After the clothes are washed, a large amount of moisture will be generated inside. If the door is not opened for ventilation, a large number of bacteria will breed. It is very inconvenient to have cabinet doors.

Suggestion:The washing machine can be embedded in the cabinet, but the cabinet door does not need to be installed. It is completely unnecessary.
