Busted! Don’t Believe These Interior Decorating Myths!

Everyone deserves to live in a home that’s a reflection of their style and personality. However, the process of sparking a drab wall or room into life takes more than just a couple of DIY videos and magazine cut-outs. By relying on a professional to help, you will get the best ideas and prices as well as a home with renewed life.

Unfortunately, the interior design industry is plagued with misconceptions about professionals, trends, and styles that prevent people from living in the most brilliantly designed homes. As part of our efforts to put an end to old wives’ tales that have come to be accepted as the truth, Parsons Interiors have debunked three of the most widely believed interior decorating myths.

Myth 1: Interior decorators are unaffordable.

This is not true. Interior decorators are very affordable. At Parsons Interiors, no budget is too small or too large. We work with your budget to make the best of your home.

Myth 2: I can do it myself.

Interior designing requires a keen eye and more often than not, you shouldn’t do it all by yourself. By using a DIY method, you may make some costly errors and spend more time than you should have trying to complete a project. By using us for your interior decoration needs, we will save hours of your time, as well money as you will avoid making any mistakes. Besides, Parsons Interiors is a dealer of several furniture lines, and we pass on our discounts to our clients. This option isn’t available to other decorators who are not stocking dealers.

Myth 3: My home’s interiors must have the latest trends.

Trends are only useful if you can live with them. Unfortunately, trends come and go, and the latest trends quickly become outdated. The last thing you want to do is have to keep redecorating to keep up with the trends. While a specific trend can speak to you, ask yourself, do I want to change my sofa or upholstery and carpeting when this trend becomes passé? A qualified interior designer can help you incorporate trends in the right ways while ensuring your home will look good for years to come. 

At Parsons Interiors, we believe in educating our clients and helping them make informed decisions. As certified interior decorating and design professionals serving Oakville, Mississauga, and the GTA, we will bring your ideas to life and spruce up your home to create an inviting space, which reflects you, our client.
