New Additions For A Brighter Space

If you’re a renter, you know how expensive it can be to make your home feel comfortable and inviting. But don’t worry – plenty of clever, budget- and renter-friendly hacks can help you make the most of your rental space! For example, you can create the illusion of more space with a wall-mounted mirror. A large, wall-mounted (without nailing into the wall!) mirror can make a room look twice as large. Not only does it reflect light, it also reflects the furniture and decor in the room. You can also use peel-off wallpaper to add color and personality to your rental space without committing to any permanent changes.

Clean, Organized, and Unique

From shelves made from repurposed materials such as old books, ladders, and suitcases, to more traditional shelves made from wood and metal but with exciting shapes and designs, there is something for everyone. If you’re looking for something unique, you can also explore options such as floating shelves, magnetic shelves, and even shelves made from hanging rope. All of these options can use renter-friendly mounting techniques like command hooks!

 

Still looking into adding colorful accents or creating a cozy atmosphere with textiles? There are plenty of ways to make your apartment more livable without making any permanent changes. With unique creativity, you can make your apartment feel like home without; explore how without breaking the bank or straying from your rental agreement.
