Nowadays we are bombarded by cool decor ideas we pick from the social networks we like to browse, like Pinterest or Instagram. Wonderful interiors and great design ideas make us salivate at the prospect of decorating our new place, but it can sometimes be a little discouraging to quickly find out it is not always easy to get the same result you have seen online.
