Owning or renting a home comes with challenges. There are endless decisions to make when creating a comfortable space that reflects our personal style — like deciding on a layout or picking paint colors. It can be daunting to navigate. Luckily, we have talented HGTV hosts and designers to look to when mistakes inevitably get in our way. Read on for their brilliant ideas on how to fix any and all home decorating woes.

Contemporary decor can be great for those looking for a tidy, modern space. But this all-white living room lacks personality and character. Multiple forms of seating in the same fabric combined with a neutral rug fall slightly flat.

Farmhouse Fixer hosts Jon Knight and Kristina Crestin pull off their signature collected style with a carefully balanced mix of materials. Green velvet drapes, a furry side chair, a slipcovered sofa and a reclaimed wood coffee table come together to give this living room a found feel. Mixing and matching fabrics and finishes allows each piece of furniture to tell a story of its own.

No matter the size, outdoor spaces are an opportunity to make your home feel bigger. But an ignored patio with no seating, a bulky storage unit and no personality isn't inviting in the least.
