#1 Swapping Curtains<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Curtains that come along the rented home can be drab and a\u00a0tad bit boring. But swapping them out for something fun and pretty can totally change the look of your room.

#2 Rearrange Furniture – the EASIEST way!<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Just because the landlord has placed the side table next to the bed, doesn\u2019t mean you have to keep it there. You can rearrange the given furniture as per your requirement or even to create more space in the room. For example,<\/strong> take all the extra chairs lying around the house and place them around the dining area – it will give the home a spacious and clutter-free look.<\/p>\n

You can even move the dining table next to a storage-cum-seating section like this!<\/p><\/div>\n

#3 Lining Your Cabinets<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Your landlord might have restrictions\u00a0on you painting the cabinets but that doesn’t mean you can’t line them! Pick a patterned print or a solid bold colour (from places like Amazon<\/a>). This will not only give your cabinets a clean look but also brighten them up!<\/p>\n

You can go crazy with pillows, rugs, throws or even art pieces in your living room. If you have any big art pieces (which a decor trend for 2018<\/a>), you can place them on shelves or even have them leaning against the wall on the floor. Anything that doesn\u2019t need to go up on a wall. Pick pieces that reflect your personality and style, as these little pieces will make you and your guests feel at home!\"\"<\/p>\n
