40 Tacky Kitchen Decor Mistakes

There's a perfectly good reason you don't see cross-handle faucets much anymore--they're a real pain to use. Literally, anyone who willingly installs them in their kitchen gets what they deserve. An eternity of cumbersome faucet usage. These are extremely tacky and extremely useless. No amount of novelty can compensate for their insufferable usage.

Cross-Handle Faucets

If you want an old-timey kitchen vibe, I say go big or go home--just remove running water from the home entirely. Better yet, install an outhouse for that "rustic" feel. You may find that hundreds of years of improvements in faucet design may have its perks after spending some time with these tacky handles.

While attending the Grammys in February 2000, Jennifer Lopez stepped out in a green Versace dress that instantly became a phenomenon. The barely-there ensemble had a dramatically low cut that came below JLo’s belly button.

When Rihanna debuted her famous red locks in 2010 (around the same time she was featured on Eminem's "Love the Way You Lie"), she started a red-hair trend.

Jennifer Aniston's star-defining role on friends started a hair craze in the 90s that even lasted into the early 2000s. Called "The Rachel," Aniston's shoulder-length haircut had grown-out bangs and highlights styled to perfection. A hairdresser in Detroit noted that at the peak of its popularity, 40% of her business was devoted to recreating "The Rachel." Too bad that it was notoriously difficult to maintain on your own at home.
Paris Hilton not only lives in a mansion, she also built a doghouse mansion for her Chihuahua. It's 300 square feet and includes air conditioning and heating. It comes decked out with designer furniture, a chandelier, a pink paint job, second-floor balcony, and enclosed "yard." It's not enough for you to live in luxury. Your dog must, as well.
