Popcorn ceilings
Popcorn or Artex ceilings were once used to add texture to virtually every room in the house. Turning an otherwise smooth ceiling into a style statement, Artexing came in many forms, from intersecting shells to broken leather patterns.
Yet textured ceilings are now very much a thing of the past – we suggest steaming those bumps off and never looking back! Crazy paving
With this one, the clue really is in the name. Frequenting our backyards since the 1970s, crazy paving is a novel way of laying a path or patio with haphazard slabs of stone or concrete, giving a somewhat unfinished appearance.
We’re really not sure how this craze became a thing, but like the Slinky and electric blue eye shadow, the time for crazy paving has been and gone.
Dust ruffle bed skirts
Also known as ruffled valance sheets, your dust ruffle bed skirts are crying out to be chucked. These over-the-top decorative covers were once used to keep dust from settling underneath mattresses, covering up unsightly bed frames in the process.
While they may have once been a chic feature in a boudoir, ruffled bed skirts are a sure-fire way to date your home.
