The Bottom Line
Rebecca Snowden, Interior Style Advisor at Furniture and Choice tells us that “TikTok has become a platform where almost anything goes, and creators are accepted for their weird and wonderful hobbies and styles. The app is so densely packed with interior design creators and often it can be hard finding content that perfectly fits your niche.”
She continues, “Maintaining a beautifully decorated interior space doesn’t always have to break the bank, and these TikTok creators are perfect demonstrations of that. Once you have purchased your standard furniture pieces you can get creative in so many ways, turning a blank canvas into a completely personalised haven.”
