Landing a fully furnished place means that you won’t have to cash out on new expensive furniture and spend your entire weekend assembling IKEA flat-packs. However, you may often find yourself questioning your landlord’s unspeakable taste. Although you may not be allowed to paint the walls and remove all the furniture, here are some funky decorating hacks to take your place from drab to fab!
1. Plants are everything
Is your space looking a little empty? Bring some life indoors by adding tall plants, potted plants, hanging plants and some mini cacti. Plants are a great way to add freshness, colour and texture to your space. But remember, with great foliage comes great responsibility - Don’t forget to water them!
2. Add a soft touch
Why not add some texture and colour to your living space? Investing in plenty of cushions and throws is a great way to cover up any old fashioned furniture and is also perfect for getting cozy during those chilly nights!
3. Vintage industrial closets
A stylish, organised wardrobe is one of life’s simple pleasures, but when you are short on space or have no closet and far too many clothes – designing your wardrobe can be tricky! But don’t fret, a free standing wardrobe or clothing rack can provide a home for all of your things, no remodelling required.
4. Don’t leave me hanging
The most common culprits that may cost you a wedge of your deposit is screws, holes and Blue-Tac marks. Hanging strips are a perfect replacement, as they can be peeled off without damaging you wall. Now that you have learnt this secret trick of damage-free hanging, you can create a beautiful gallery wall by mixing and matching frames of all shapes and sizes.
5. Brighten up your place
Add a hint of magic to your space by wrapping strings of lights around your walls, furniture or photos. Not only are they inexpensive and versatile, they also add a soft glow to almost any room!
