ARE you looking to give your house a modern makeover but don't know where to start?
Well, you may just want to listen up…because according to one interior design whizz named Char, there are three things you should steer clear of in your home.
In the clip shared to TikTok (@chartarahome), Char shares the three things she says can make your interior look cheap rather than expensive.
First up on her list of things to avoid are over door hooks.
Offering an alternative to replace them with, she says: "Hidden storage – the reason I put them in the video was purely because it can create clutter."
Next up, Char emphasises the importance of having things matching and urges people to never opt for uncoordinated kitchen cupboards.
Finally, and perhaps the most controversial, Char says that crushed velvet – whether it's a sofa, cushions or bedding – is a big no.
The video has since gone viral, racking up a whopping 2.5 million views and several comments – with very mixed responses.

Elsewhere, others expressed their views on the three interior design trends mentioned.
"I feel personally attacked by the over the door hangers because every door in this house girl," joked one.
A second quipped: "My island is a different shade to my wall cupboards.
"No regrets. It makes the space feel bigger."
