Your House Looks CHEAP! And THIS Is Why | How To Fix It

I love this concept “don’t pair something real with something faux.” I had not thought of that, but is so true, and this idea doesn’t denigrate the faux stuff.

I spent really good money on my couch pillows, from a designer. They’re all feather. But what I do is I buy different covers to suit my mood or the seasons. Invest in the pillows. Buy new covers.

[@karendevine7074]

I totally agree with you about not having something faux next to something real. My husband and I are considering new flooring in the kitchen. He thinks we should go with vinyl wood plank. But, they would butt up against our natural wood floors. Everyone in the family think I’m crazy to have a problem with it. You are the first person to justify my argument. We either match our current wood floor or we do something totally different like porcelain tile. Thank you for voicing this argument so clearly.

[@GarrettLeChic]

My pleasure! Glad you enjoyed.

I had to laugh about vertical blinds- my first home had custom fabric vertical blinds which were expensive but to me screamed 1980s so into the garage they went. Editing your decor is probably the most important as nothing screams cheap like an over abundance of cheap stuff scattered around.

[@beauteoussounds1156]

We moved from a three story mid century home to a small beach cottage and an apartment in the city. The apartment had the vertically(challenged) blinds on the back sliding glass door. Ugh. I took Garrett’s advice and hung sheers across the entire back wall, floor to ceiling - covering the verticals and a large window with mini blinds. So elegant! Thanks you, Garrett! You are a life(style) saver!!!❤

[@GarrettLeChic]

I love when my tips help people elevate their spaces! 👍

[@julzm7067]

Basic drapery panels are easy to sew, an even feed foot is helpful. The simplest is a rod pocket on the top, allow 2.5 -3 times the width as a rough guide. There are also tapes that can be used for several types of pleats. Box pleats are another option that give a tailored look.

[@Opal_Sky]

In the early 90's my grandmother had custom fabric vertical blinds in some very on trend pale blue and a pink and I remember being so impressed with how cool she was... She wouldn't own them today but she rocked that trend then ❤

I installed custom vertical blinds on a wall of patio windows (3 panes, 3 separate installs). Great way for me to control light and privacy without overwhelming the space, kitchen/family room.

[@diana6842]

[@GarrettLeChic]

[@denisedevoto5703]

I am not really a fan of blinds, either, but I do have vertical blinds on my slider. It is the entrance and exit door for us to get to the garage, so I needed to stay away from fabric. I chose plastic blinds that are thick with a pattern in them. I also had a beautiful cornice installed that matches the blinds. They do look nice and are functional.

[@Arienrhod]

The first thing I did after I moved into my overpriced yet cheaply built spec home was to hire a professional to create custom window treatments with fabulous hardware. To this day I feel like a duchess when I touch the heavy, gorgeous fabrics. The rest of the house is a work in progress… custom lighting fixtures happened last year. Squeeeeee!!!!

I agree with you that horizontal blinds look very nice, however, the great thing about vertical blinds is that you never have to clean them, just in the floor area where they meet floor. Whereas the horizontal blinds need a lot of maintenance as dust collects on them horribly so. Horizontals are geat if you have domestic help, but if you dont.... not good. And, if you really think about it, one runs horintallly and the other vertically... same thing.

There are always exceptions. 😊😊😊

[@merrijohnson-jones1072]

If I had no neighbors I would go with no window treatments in the living room only. I love natural light and clean windows.

[@TheDoggmom]

I know exactly what you mean bu neighbors having covered windows living in a cave. I did not want to be that neighbor! My husband insists on sleeping in a room with closed blinds. He will not open them during the day. So-I asked him to take the bedroom at the back of the house. Those big window binds are always closed BUT at least they are at the back of the house.

I have a corner fireplace. The left adjacent wall is three long windows overlooking patio and pool then the right adjacent wall is all built in. Center of built in houses eye level television while seated on the sofa…with book shelves on each side and cabinets above and below television. It’s difficult arranging this room. One corner of my area rug and pad right now is folded under to create an edge against the marble in front of the fireplace….otherwise there’s a worse looking corner pointing right into the middle of the fireplace and overlapping the hardwood floors into the marble around the fireplace. Where do you get rug corners properly cut and the cut seam edge sewn and finished out so it looks customized and not rigged? A smaller rug isn’t the answer because then it leaves about a six foot wide area in front of the windows without a rug and minimizes the look of the space as well as where you can place furniture.

[@RagingCanuck]

Why don’t you visit a flooring retailer in your area that sells better-to-high quality broadloom and ask about having your choice custom fitted for your space? You can have the edges of the rug bound to finish the look. This way, you can be assured of a perfect fit.

[@RagingCanuck]

Hi Garrett, such great advice, thank you! When building our house, I chose, for the ensuite used by my daughter and son-in-law when visiting us from Charlotte, a beautiful Skyros marble slab for the vanity counter, half-wall topper and tub deck, with matching 12” x 24” tiles for the walls, all being offered by one of the best stone suppliers in Toronto. I sourced mosaic floor tiles, a chair rail and baseboard in the same Skyros from a retailer in New York. Because it took sooooooo long for our contractor to build our house, the wall tiles sat on their pallet, boxed, for months. When we finally opened the boxes, we discovered the wrong marble had been delivered! Since I had purchased a sample wall tile prior to finalizing my order (I strongly recommend doing this), I was able to verify what I had ordered - and for which I had paid a substantial sum - was not only what had not been provided, but was never available in the first place. My money was refunded, but now I was left with a fabricated counter top, topper and bathtub deck, and floor mosaic and trim tile in Skyros marble, but nothing in Skyros for my walls, not even for my shower stall and tub surround walls. No other stone suppliers in the province had Skyros marble. No other natural stone came close. I was feeling hopeless. One day, my husband and I were wandering through an interior design mall, when we found an outlet of our plumbing supplier. It had a display of Porcelanosa tiles, half price. Amongst them was a 24” x 24” Skyros look-alike. Given that I already had the marble for this bathroom fabricated four different ways - as a slab, mosaic, and two types of trim - the fact that the porcelain was slightly different in texture - slightly matte, not polished like the rest - didn’t seem to matter. It is an excellent match for the marble and completely covers three of the four walls of the room to the cornice moulding. The fourth wall, on which the vanity and toilet (behind a half-wall) are located, is tiled to the height of the vanity blacksplash, just under the mirror and a window, topped with the marble chair rail that runs under the Skyros slab topper on the tiled half-wall. The upper part of wall clad in a beautiful Thibault wallpaper (‘Cordelia”) in the same shades as the marble/tile. It was a desperate play - I agree one should never mix real stone with fake stuff - but it worked. And, it cost one-third the price of the marble! I just checked the original supplier; four years after the fact, my Skyros wall tiles are in stock! I’m tempted…but not crazy!

[@karensheppard1471]

Super broke, so many of the recommendations are unaffordable, but many ideas you have are ways to work with what you have. Ty! Your window treatment advice came at the perfect time! We have a new picture window and we have always gotten the boring blinds, but after listening , I am going to go with what you have because it looks classier and softer. It would be a shame to unknowingly cheapen this large new window. I’ll change the blinds in this room and other rooms as funds allow. You truly help so many ppl and I’ve never been offended by your honesty, but I sure get excited when I have done something right! Ty Garrett. You are truly a decorating treasure!

Rugs. 2023 was the year of upgrading to vintage rugs. HUGE difference. Unpopular opinion, but I’d rather see a smaller genuine rug than a bigger fake (printed/washable) rug. I make my own pillow covers, always double-sided.

[@wisteria808]

Yes, that is an unpopular opinion. I don't want to see a rug that is too small for its purpose, regardless of the fact that it's vintage.

[@cynthiafialka]

I would agree with you. But I’d take it a step further and say any hand knotted rug (vintage or new) beats a machine made rug which generally has zero personality.

[@GarrettLeChic]

Agreed on this point. I’d rather see a person wait and get the right sized rug than go with a smaller rug that really can detract from beautiful design in a space. There are affordable options in fine rugs. You just have to take time and look around.

Interesting tip about double sided pillow, good one. Guess what I immediately got up to check my sofa pillows and also the pillows on my swing in the patio😬, thank goodness they are double sided. My bedroom pillows are always double sided but I never thought about the sofa pillows but I guess it’s automatic for me to pick up the double sided pillows hence saved🤪 The whole episode was awesome, however the best tip was “Editing”, very very important, so thanks for bringing it up towards the end of the video.
