She knows how hard it can be to give up furniture, and she shares three things to ask yourself:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Does the component in question serve a function to the best of its ability?<\/li>\n<li>Does the item fit the proportions of your room?<\/li>\n<li>Do you work alongside your other furniture?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Whether you&#8217;re looking for small living room ideas or built-in hallway solutions, Michaela says if you can find a piece that works best, it&#8217;s time to upgrade.  Donate the asset to a charity store or sell it online before looking for the best option.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_299390\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-299390\" class=\"lazyload blur-up size-full wp-image-299390\" src=\"https:\/\/ksassets.timeincuk.net\/wp\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2022\/01\/sofa-neptune.jpg\" alt=\"Living room with blue wall and sofa with neutral rug and coffee table\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" data-sizes=\"auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ksassets.timeincuk.net\/wp\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2022\/01\/sofa-neptune.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/ksassets.timeincuk.net\/wp\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2022\/01\/sofa-neptune-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ksassets.timeincuk.net\/wp\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2022\/01\/sofa-neptune-630x630.jpg 630w, https:\/\/ksassets.timeincuk.net\/wp\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2022\/01\/sofa-neptune-135x135.jpg 135w, https:\/\/ksassets.timeincuk.net\/wp\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2022\/01\/sofa-neptune-320x320.jpg 320w, https:\/\/ksassets.timeincuk.net\/wp\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2022\/01\/sofa-neptune-620x620.jpg 620w, https:\/\/ksassets.timeincuk.net\/wp\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2022\/01\/sofa-neptune-920x920.jpg 920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-299390\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image credit: Neptune<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>She explains that furniture that&#8217;s too big or small for a room can disturb the flow and appear out of place.
