Personalize Your Rental Homes the Right Way

Personalize Your Rental Homes the Right Way

Renting an apartment or house has a lot of benefits, but personalizing it can seem like a challenge when your landlord places limitations on what you can customize. Many landlords won’t allow you to even paint the walls, let alone change things like flooring and cabinets. However, this doesn’t have to stop you from having a stylish home that feels like you. There are plenty of ways to personalize a rental that will make it beautiful without making any major changes

Furniture

If your walls are a plain cream, grey, beige or white in colour, bring in some creative and bright furniture. This will help to liven and brighten the place up a lot. Here again, you don’t need to spend lots to buy new furniture, you can even rent out the pieces you want. If renting is not something you like, you can try reupholstering your old furniture with lovely bright fabrics.

Lighting

One of the easiest things to change out in a rental is the lighting. Lighting can make a huge difference on a space, both with the ambiance and the style of it. If the lighting is outdated, invest in some beautiful chandeliers or other stylish fixtures. You can change them back when you leave and take the ones you love with you. You’ll be amazed by how much of a difference this small change will make on the entire feel of your home! Get personal

There is nothing that brings in a sense of your personality and what matters to you more than photographs. You can hang single large prints or make a collage of several smaller frames. These pictures will make your rented home feel like your own home in no time. The added advantage is that it’s cheap and causes no damage to the rented house.

Go bold

If your home is not wall to wall carpeted, buy rugs and carpets in bold tones. They will add richness to your rented apartment. Adding colour doesn’t end here, you can also choose vibrant drapes and bed linen. The popular choices are jewel tones, shades of blue and bright hues of yellow.

Brighten the walls

If your landlord is particular about not changing the colour of the paint, then you need to find creative ways to bring in colour to your rented home. Some easy ways to do this is by using large artwork, covering the walls with fabric paintings or by using wallpaper and decals. Wallpaper and Decals can be ordered online and are easy to paste and remove on your own. You can also find plenty of wallpaper and decal options online.
