Many friends have a habit of following the trend to buy some household items or decorate their homes.

However, after moving in, you will often find that many of the household items you bought or the decorative designs that followed the trend are rarely used and end up being unused.

To this end, Qijia Anan specially summarized the "7 major idle things" that most Chinese families have. Among them, my family has 6 of them.

And it can be said that these idle items are almost wasted money. How many types do you have at home?

1. Reserved Second Bedroom

The first idle space that appears in many Chinese families is actually the second bedroom reserved during decoration.

The emergence of reserving a second bedroom during decoration is, to a large extent, caused by following the trend of decoration.

Of course, I also have some ideas of my own. I hope that when relatives and friends come to visit in the future, they will have a place to stay.

Combined with other people's suggestions on decoration, we finally decided to reserve a second bedroom for decoration.

However, after moving into the reserved second bedroom, I discovered the following problems:

1. It is rarely used in a year.It can be said that a room is almost wasted. I believe this situation occurs in many families. Of course, I am no exception.

2. Since it is a reserved second bedroom, many functional designs are not suitable for our use.Later, I wanted to change it into other rooms, but found it was not easy to do so, so I had to wait until the next renovation.

Recommended Practice:

1. Home decoration should arrange each room according to the actual needs of the family.Especially the function of each room, which includes bedroom, study and so on.

2. Try not to reserve space for rooms that are being renovated for the home.Decorate based on the current needs of your family, and you will find it more practical.

2. Wine Cabinet

The second most unused item in Chinese households is the wine cabinet.

Wine cabinets were once very popular for a period of time, and many friends installed wine cabinets when decorating their homes.

Because the wine cabinet is well designed, it is really beautiful. Putting it in the living room will obviously improve the grade of the living room.

However, for most ordinary families, the wine cabinet is just a decoration and has almost no use.

For most families, the wine cabinets installed following the trend generally become the following situations:

1. It has become a place where debris accumulates.Finally, I found that the wine cabinet was filled with all kinds of sundries that were not used in daily life. Many of them were not arranged neatly, making it look messy.

2. Changed into a locker.In the end, I found that the wine cabinet couldn’t hold much stuff and was just storage compartments, so I had to remodel it and finally turned it into an ordinary storage cabinet.

Recommendations:

1. For most parents, I personally recommend that you do not install a wine cabinet.Because many families can hardly store much wine, the wine cabinet is just a waste of money and becomes a decoration.

2. If you want to store some wine, it is actually recommended that you just make an ordinary storage cabinet.Because ordinary lockers can also store wine, and later on, they can also store items, making them more practical.

3. Shoe changing bench

The third type of idle item that appears in many Chinese households is the shoe-changing bench at the entrance.

The shoe-changing bench at the entrance was also popular for a while.

The first step to getting started with a shoe-changing bench is to install a bench next to the shoe cabinet. There are foldable and hidden types.

What I fantasize about is that when I change my shoes every day, I can sit on a stool instead of standing, which would feel very comfortable.

The idea is good, but it is often used only a few times:

1. The shoe-changing bench is inconvenient to use.Like most shoe-changing stools, they are basically foldable or hidden. You need to put the stool away before changing your shoes. In fact, you can change your shoes while standing.

2. The shoe-changing bench is easy to break.Especially for wall-mounted ones, you have to be very careful every time you sit on them, otherwise they may break after a long time. Hidden shoe benches also have this problem.

Recommendations:

1. For most families, there is actually no need to install a shoe-changing bench.Changing shoes only takes a minute or two and can be done while standing.

2. If we must install a shoe-changing bench, it is recommended that you install a movable one.For example, the ones that can be pushed into the shoe cabinet are more durable. If not in use, you can also take them away.

4. Study

The fourth largest idle space in many Chinese families is the study room.

Of course, if the study room is used well, the effect is still very good. You can sit quietly to work, study, and read every day.

However, for many friends, it is actually difficult to find time to study and read in the study room.

As we all know, people now work at a very fast pace and are under a tight schedule.

Therefore, most of the study rooms designed for home decoration ended up being idle:

1. The study is only used a few times a year.The study room in many homes has become a room that takes up space. And it needs to be cleaned frequently, otherwise the study room will be covered with dust.

2. The study room is rarely used.For example, a study room is basically filled with desks and bookcases. If you want to use it for other purposes, you will find that it is not possible and you can only leave it there.

Recommendations:

1. For most friends, there is no need to decorate a study room at home. Because for most people, most of them do not have time to study and read quietly in the study room, and it may be a waste in the end.

2. When we decorate and design, we must consider the function of the study room. We cannot just think that it may be useful in the future, but should design it more realistically, such as designing it as a cloakroom or a small bedroom.

5. Lazy sofa

The fifth most common idle item in Chinese households is the once very popular lazy sofa.

Lazy sofas have been extremely popular in recent years and can be said to be extremely popular.

Lazy sofas come in a variety of shapes, such as shell-shaped, spherical, and made of a variety of materials.

All in all, the lazy sofa has an outstanding appearance, especially the effect of taking photos is very good.

However, many friends ignore the practicality of lazy sofas.

The end result is that you buy a lazy sofa, but you can't use it for many times, and it ends up piled up in a corner, gathering dust and taking up space:

1. Poor comfort.For most lazy sofas, they are not very compatible with the human spine and cervical spine. In fact, to put it bluntly, they are not very friendly to the human spine and cervical spine. Over time, it will cause great harm.

2. Easy to break.Some blue sofas are very cheap, only about 100 or 200 yuan. These cheap products are filled with white plastic foam particles. They are easy to crack, and when they crack, the foam fills the room.

3. Take up space.Nowadays, people are pursuing minimalist effect in decoration, so the furniture in the living room is getting less and less. So you will find that the lazy sofa is very space-consuming.

Recommended Practice:

1. Personally, I don’t recommend you to buy lazy sofas. No matter what style or material it is, even if it looks comfortable to lie on, it can be very harmful over time, so be careful.

2. For the idle lazy sofas at home, don’t pile them up in the corner, taking up space and gathering dust. My personal suggestion is to deal with them as soon as possible, so that the home will be more spacious and cleaner.

6. Bay Window

The sixth most common idle item in Chinese homes is the bay window with beautiful design.

I guess many of my friends like houses with bay windows when buying a house.

I fantasize about having a large bay window at home, decorating it beautifully, and sitting on it to read, relax, and bask in the sun.

However, after the actual decoration was completed, I found that this bay window was just there for viewing.

For many families, the following situations occur after the bay window is moved in:

1. The bay window is piled with all kinds of unused items.Especially if you have children at home, you will find that it is full of children's toys. In addition, some items that are not used in daily life are gradually piled up on the bay window.

2. The bay window has become a place for growing flowers.Especially for some friends who like to grow flowers, they add various green plants in pots on the bay windows at home, and they will be full over time.

Recommended Practice:

1. If you want to use the bay window later, it is recommended that you design it as a study area directly during decoration. Put a small table on it, so as to avoid the bay window becoming a place for idle items.

2. If you like to grow flowers, then plan the use of each location in advance. Balconies or bay windows should be designed well. Don't change the function of each location later, as it will cause chaos.

7. Bathtub

The seventh idle item in Chinese households is the bathtub.

In fact, there are almost no bathtubs in traditional Chinese home decoration. I don't know why, but more and more bathtubs appear in Chinese homes.

It was precisely because of the hype of many people that bathtubs were very popular for a period of time.

After moving in, you will find that bathtubs are really impractical, causing bathtubs in many families to become unused items.

After one or two years of living in the bathtub, most of the following problems occur:

1. The bathtub has become a place to store miscellaneous items in the bathroom.Things like laundry detergent, shampoo, etc. in the bathroom are slowly piled up in the bathtub. I found that there are quite a lot of them and it is very messy.

2. The bathtub is troublesome to use.You need to drain the water every time for a long time. In addition, you need to clean the bathtub in time after use. Otherwise, after a long time, the bathtub will be full of stains that cannot be wiped off.

3. Few people have time to take a bath in a bathtub regularly.A bath in a bathtub usually takes dozens of minutes. Most families do not have such time, so the bathtub becomes idle.

Recommended Practice:

1. For most of our ordinary families, especially those whose bathrooms are not very large, try not to install a bathtub. It not only takes up space, but is also difficult to remove.

2. If the bathroom in our home is particularly large, with a master bathroom and a secondary bathroom, and the area of ​​the bathroom reaches 6~7 square meters, then we can consider it. However, we also need to consider whether we can use it.

As people's lives continue to change, we will find that some designs or supplies that were once very popular have gradually become idle.

In this article, we introduce seven types of idleness, which have almost become a common problem in Chinese families.

Therefore, we try to avoid these unused items when decorating our homes. If you already have them, it is recommended that you deal with them as soon as possible, because there is no use in keeping them.
