Prioritize having it fit your needs best instead of pleasing other people who don't even live in your home. Don't fret if it might look bad to someone else as long as it looks good to you, and don't forget that functionality should come first. There's so much BS styling for the sake of styling that make homes more difficult to actually live in and use the amenities of.

Also, I find that you get used to your home to the point where any decorations fade into the background so fast that it's rarely worth it to spend a ton of effort to make it look pretty. You're not going to appreciate or even notice it just a month or two after you redecorate.
