Two cigarette case, two leather jackets
The well-known phrase from the movie "Ivan Vasilievich" aptly describes the common problem. People are limited in the media, tend to buy expensive things, without thinking about the feasibility of such a purchase, and guided by the desire to impress.
What is the result of: a conspicuous place worth dorogushchy music center, but he was already 15 years old. Conventional guests this may not notice, but those who are versed in the technique - certainly. And here can sound catchphrase: "Just so was my grandmother." This fiasco. Or, for example, in the ultra-modern kitchen fridge with a box for wine and a touch panel. But you entertain guests a cheap port wine, because forced to save on products, to pay the credit for this monster.
What to do? Give preference to less expensive, but functional things that are really needed, and not just put them on display. And if any relationship with silicone circles inflate lips at the sight of skoromnogo "Samsung" on your the kitchen - Just get out of it a pineapple and a bottle of good champagne. Now that you are in bondage to a bank, you can afford it.
Kill a Plyushkin
This is my favorite dish since childhood. Nothing that her Shcherbinka. She is dear to me as a memory. Nothing like? It must be admitted that the reluctance to part with familiar and favorite things, even when they lost their form, there are many, if not all. And it also gives poverty.
They do not enjoy the remnants. AT bathroom It must be based on a good piece of soap, not a petal. You forget me? Put the dispenser with liquid soap.
And one more problem - the presence in the apartment secret place with all sorts of rubbish. Usually this balcony. Sometimes, you admire a luxurious interior, you will glance behind the curtains to the balcony, and there - a dump! Crumpled boxes of junk, or even better - tomato seedlings on the windowsill. Everything here and you got caught. Pay attention to this subject.
From dirt to Kings
People who really do not have a luxury of income, often a tendency to royal interiors. They will ride the bus, but at home you will meet the Greek columns and gilded baroque. And worst of all - all squeezed into Khrushchev bedroomwhere fridge It is standing in the corridor because of the kitchen tightness.
On the ceiling molding Styrofoam, half the room takes a weighty chandelierAnd on sofas with gold monograms and sit down terribly. For such a situation fits the classic saying: "From rags to riches". Only really the prince must live in a palace with all these delights and not in kopeck piece on the fifth floor. This disparity gives you a head. Money you do not have a palace, but in my heart you are a patrician.
The only advice in this situation - everything has to match. There are lots of interesting options and stylesThat look is functional and, thus, expensive.
I was a child was an athlete
People with money try not to advertise them. Just because they do not attach importance to its viability. You are unlikely to encounter them on the walls of houses in the photos posh interiors or background doroguschih machines.
One lady on the wall hung a huge photo where she is a beautiful mansion in the background luxury stairs. She believed that it will emphasize her of status, but actually photoshop was so-so. And the impression was terrible. So enthusiasm soon gives handicap than underlines success.
And yet some comrades love to put their past achievements. And a kind of Carlson in the prime of life, which only lacks the propeller are proud to lead you to the museum with cups of swimming, which he earned in 12 years. Certificates for a long time covered with dust, and it is difficult to believe that he is able to stay on the water. So show off your true success, not the past.
Our hands are not for boredom
If you have a desire for creative handmade - it is not necessary to fill in their interior. You have just learned how to make Topiary and strive to make them all available shelves and nightstands? Stop! Nothing spoils the interior, as the clumsy crafts. If you have not reached full enlightenment in the chosen craft, keep your masterpieces in a secluded place, and if you want to just show their guests. It will be better this way.
There should be little, because the main thing in accessories - their uniqueness. If you want to decorate sofa hand woven pillows - let them be only a couple, and no teddy bears on the sofas, unless you do not have a child.
almost Picasso
Rich people do not hang on the wall reproductions. It is a fact. And even if they like Dali, they will go to admire it in a museum, but would not order a print on canvas and hang it on the wall.
If not given, the least talented street artist, if it is truly a masterpiece. The desire to hang up the Mona Lisa in the bedroom will not talk about your worship, Leonardo, and the desire to splurge.
But if you can not live a day without a girl on the ball, or Black Square, is an interesting alternative: make a handmade tapestry with this image or wallpaper in the wall. Then your favorite piece would be the original part interior without a hint of forgery.
ignoble old
Of course there are the interiors, which looks great patina and light wear, but none of them will not look greasy sofa. If you have not done repairs - is striking.
If the upholstery of sofas no longer looks fresh - they need to win, if you can not buy new ones. trampled edge carpet It can be rotated so that it is hidden under a cabinet.
Another negative signal - cheap and non-natural materials in the finishing. Linoleum on the floor, even if it Tarkett says about your poverty. It looks bad imitation of wood on the walls panels and finish artificial stone. No, this is acceptable if you are not applying for luxury. And be sure to watch out for color combinations in the interior.
What else you can add? Even if you would like to take all of these pitfalls, but will appear in front of guests in the bubbling sweat pants on his knees, write was gone. The owner and his house must match. Give a chance to see you with the best hand, even if now in my life is the light bar.
