10 Signals your Decor is Trashy | The Garbage Blog

When most dirtbags get their first place away from home, seldom do we get the privilege of immediately decorating after we move in. 

Or unpacking right away.

Or every fully unpacking - how long will ya REALLY be at this joint? 

Well, if you’ve been in this place more than 9 months - especially more than a year… And really especially if you own the place, you need to start thinking about your decor.  

See any of the below signs and over the age of 30? It’s time to upgrade. (In your 20s? You still get a pass!) 

10 Signals Your Decor is Trashy 

10. Plastic Plates & Bowls  

We know that the dollar store runs a great package deal on reusable plastic plates, but you’re not on a picnic… At least upgrade to the dollar store’s real dishes and metal cutlery, because you deserve it.  

Double negative points if you use disposable plastic or paper plates on the regular. In this economy?!  

9. None of the furniture in your house is a part of a matching set.  Or matches each other at all, in color, material, style, era of architecture…  

Or has all the pieces it should...

8. Unframed posters

Excusable in a man cave.  

Otherwise, just throw it in a frame– immediately classy. 

7. Mirrored furniture - other than, ya know, mirrors. 

While incredibly gorgeous and grandiose and lets you live out your 1980s George Michael dreams, it’s definitely trashy.  

We didn’t say it wasn’t sexy - we just said it was trashy. 

6. If you have any type of sports towel pinned to the wall.  

Terrible Towel? Terrible indeed, hold it on your recliner like a real man, not pinned to the wall like a proud 3rd grader. 

5. You’ve purchased either of these sets of dining tables new in the last 10 years.

The Dining Room Table & Chairs That Everyone Seemed to Have ...  

4. Your blinds are broken… Or just missing altogether. 

And you don’t have curtains.

They can get you for public nudity if you’re unintentionally flashing passerbys. You’ve been warned!  

3. You have photos on your walls of women you don’t know.  And have never met. 

We’re bettin’ they’re not on oil-on-canvas, either! 

2. You own less than 2 bath towels.  

We understand 2 is the perfect rotation for laundry, but what if you had 3…?

1. You still sleep in a waterbed. 

This one was hard for us...

They're so cool - but there's no way to say it's not trash.

In fact, most landlords put in a lease that you can't have 'em anymore.  We're living in strange times. 

What trash decor do you have in your home? Let us know!
