As if a household wasn't already hard enough to keep clean, these people are living life on challenge mode. They've acquired some items of beauty that are just way too difficult to clean!

Sometimes you can't help but buy that gorgeous item you see at the store, only to be hit later with a big dose of buyer's remorse. Maybe you saw a cutesy lamp that you later realized is not your style at all, or perhaps you picked out a coffee table only to realize you cringe when you see it. It happens to all of us at some point---things look so cute when they're on display in the store, but the way they look in your home, set in different lighting and surrounded by other furniture, is a whole different story.

These people found some spectacular furniture and decor, but they failed to think about how they'd clean it. Time to invest in a gentle duster and maybe some canned air for some of these lamps and sculptures!

After you check out these hard-to-clean objects, read about the traveling worker who started maxing out their meal budget to spite a stingy accountant who wouldn't pay them back for groceries.

Why does this cotton-ball ceiling look like a major fire hazard?

This is an "Alaskan River Floor," complete with 3D rocks

It's pretty, but it seems like it belongs in a museum more so than a home. Who wants to stumble across random floor rocks at 3 AM while they're trying to get a glass of water?

Love the creativity, but...

via u/sunmodelsss

Not only will these be impossible to clean, they're probably uncomfortable to sit in. While walking, there's no way this person isn't flinging little stuffed animals left and right as they come loose. At the same time, though, I want a pair anyway!

Should you ever move this at all, it will be tangled forever

This is apparently a waiting room for an eye doctor

via u/indigo_mermaid

It's nightmare fuel to us!
