We tend to become complacent with our <em>interior decorating.<\/em> With just a few simple, inexpensive steps, you can increase the value of your home. <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The trick is to predict what buyers will desire down the line so that you acquire a greater profit if you are planning to sell. Listed below are the <strong>five trends of 2015<\/strong> that need to go:<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\n<img class=\"alignright wp-image-247 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/faux.jpg\" alt=\"out of date trends\" width=\"294\" height=\"212\" \/>1.) Faux Finishes<\/strong> &#8211; Upcoming design trends are heading towards mid-century modern design. This means authentic, natural decorating styles. There will be a lot of glass, stone, and woods in their natural state. So ditch your antique finishes and faux Tuscan wall treatments for solid coats of paint and a clear gloss.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2.) The Kitchen Desk<\/strong> &#8211; In past years when landlines were more common, \u201cThe Kitchen Desk\u201d was a cozy alternative to the office desk. It was slightly smaller than a standard counter top.\u00a0 It provided space for a landline, cookbooks, and small storage. However, with recent technological advances and commodities such as cell phones and tablets, the need for a land line and book storage has been deemed unnecessary. Instead, make the space a full-sized counter top with more cabinet space. This adds value and storage to your newly improved kitchen.<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\n3.) Chevron Decor<\/strong> &#8211; From throw pillows and <a title=\"The Carpet Guys Homepage\" href=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">new carpeting<\/a> to wallpaper, the chevron pattern was listed as the most overused design trend of 2015. <img class=\"alignleft wp-image-251 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/chevron.jpg\" alt=\"chevron style decoration\" width=\"294\" height=\"212\" \/>Rather than the standard herringbone print, chevron uses thicker lines and has a bit of a juvenile air to it. Most of these fixes are inexpensive.\u00a0 They can drastically change the appearance of your home in a positive way. Simply replace the old, outdated chevron with solid colors.\u00a0 You can also use accent pieces, such as animal hide or a contrasting color.\u00a0 Let The Carpet Guys update your chevron patterned flooring to something more stylish.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4.) Tv in a child\u2019s bedroom<\/strong> &#8211; While this is not necessarily a decorating phenomena, it is a design that is heading out in 2015. Not only will it encourage children to take part in more substantial creative activity, it could also boost the value of the home. How? Rather than putting a TV in a room, use the space to create a child play area or an accent wall. Chalkboard walls are a rising trend that allow self-expression and it essentially decorates itself.<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\n<img class=\"alignright wp-image-254 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/brass.jpg\" alt=\"brass hardware on a teal blue door\" width=\"294\" height=\"212\" \/>5.) Brass Hardware<\/strong> &#8211; The brass hardware trend of past years is slowly dying off. Buyers are more interested in brushed nickel and steel appliances. Due to the fact that this is a fairly inexpensive swap, you will profit a great deal by using just a bit of elbow grease.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, times are changing and so are our interior decorating trends. It is up to you to make your home stand out. Especially if you are looking to sell it. By taking part in a few of these easy, inexpensive design choices, you are not only investing in your home, but in your future.\u00a0 Give The Carpet Guys a call and we can help you update your flooring to the upcoming trends!<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As 2015 comes to a close, remember that it is never too late to swap out those old, outdated trends for something chic.
