I’m an interior designer and there are three things that make your house look cheap, they’re simple to fix, too | The Sun

A PRO interior designer has revealed the top three decor mistakes people make in their home. 

Taking to her social media, Dara Huang explained that these things make a home look “cheap”, but can be avoided. 


Dressed in white trousers with a grey shirt on, she started the video off by sharing: “Three things that make your home look cheap. 

“Curtains that are too short. They should actually be a tad bit longer.” 

The next problematic item in a home she sees most often is house plants.
