Interior designer shares home improvement ‘mistakes’ to avoid – creates a ‘confused’ space

Interior design is just one way homeowners can put their own stamp onto their property. However, if you’re renovating to sell, there are some important choices to stay away from as they may not be appreciated by a potential buyer. One expert has said Britons should opt for warm naturals instead.

Thomas Goodman, interior designer, MyJobQuote.co.uk, told Express.co.uk: “Using bold colors and patterns is a personal choice and not one that everyone will appreciate.

“Although some buyers will look past the bright colors and patterns, not everyone can or will.

“So, if you want to sell a house for the

Layers of Flowers- Spring Table Setting

An abundance of florals on repeat for a flower filled spring table setting.

Flowers Filled Table Setting

This table was inspired by flowers (surprise surprise haha). From the tablecloth to the napkins to the garland- it’s all about florals on repeat. It was originally for a small bridal gathering but I thought I would share it here too as it works just as beautifully for a spring or Easter table as well.

Floral Linens

This table cloth has an all over floral trellis pattern that is so pretty – it would be lovely for warm summer gatherings as well.

Inside ‘America’s most inbred family’

They redefined “all in the family.”

The baying vocals of one inbred family sound like a stereotype relegated to only the most exaggerated and offensive backwoods cult flicks.

However, one photographer proved that such communities do in fact exist after documenting the secret lives of the Whittakers — aka “America’s most inbred family,” whose members communicate only in grunts and bark at passers-by.

“It was out of control — the craziest thing I’d ever seen” documentarian Mark Laita, 63, recalled recently on the Konkrete podcast.

It’s a laugh from the moment it pulls into the paddock. This is a Arizona Motorsports Park, a race track, a land for serious machines. There’s a GR Corolla and a Civic Type R in the pits, looking menacing as F-35s and French Mirages from Luke Air Force Base scream overhead. Then the green, six-wheeled Jeep shows up.

It’s a project of Wesley Kagan, and arguably his origin story. The mild-mannered tinkerer is bound to become an automotive folk hero. At 25, his projects so far included fitting

French Cottage Attic Inspiration & Ideas

Attic Ideas

Our attic is a room full of vintage charm and lots of fairytale romantic touches. From floral covered beds to well-loved rugs, pine plank floors and wood plank walls and ceiling. It is a quirky little space that has low ceilings on the sides and a high pitch in the center of the room. The charm starts with the steep and narrow staircase that leads up to it- and it just continues from there.

Admittedly, currently, the attic is looking a bit like a storage space. We have some boxes and extra things being stored in the half
