3 Budget-Friendly Ways To Make Your Home Your Own When You Rent

By Thomas on June 13, 2022

If you don’t currently own the home that you’re living in, you might feel like you don’t have the freedom or capabilities to make this space your own. And while this might be true to an extent, if you really want to turn this space into something that reflects you and your design aesthetic without going to the extent of doing actual renovations, you’ll be glad to know that there are still plenty of ways that you can tweak and change things up.

To help you see how this can be done, here are three budget-friendly ways to make your home your own when you’re a renter.

Hide Floors You Don’t Love

One part of many rentals that takes a lot of abuse is the flooring. And because getting new flooring can be expensive, many landlords aren’t looking for any excuse to put new flooring into their units. However, there are ways that you can hide floors that you don’t love while you’re renting.

To put down some new flooring without having to tear up what’s already there or ruin the current flooring, you might want to look into peel-and-stick flooring tiles. These types of flooring tiles will give you the freedom to put a new look and feel onto the flooring for very little financial investment. If this isn’t an option for you, you can always put down some rugs that you like to cover up parts of the flooring that don’t suit you.

Use Fabric Rather Than Paint

For many homeowners, adding a new coat of paint is a great and inexpensive way to make a room look brand new. But for many renters, painting isn’t something that they are allowed to do. So if you’re wanting to change up the look of the walls or ceiling in your space, you may want to use fabric rather than paint.

All kinds of fabric pieces can be pinned or stapled to the walls and ceilings of a space without causing much damage at all. And this way, you can put something you love over the walls that you hate and have the room look much more to your liking.

Go Ahead And Hang Your Art

In some rentals, landlords ban tenants from putting any holes in the walls. But if you have art or other decor that you want to hang up, putting a few holes in the walls might be necessary.

Rather than keeping your walls bare, consider how you might be able to hang your art with as little damage as possible. While you might be able to use some hooks that don’t actually go into the walls, small holes are usually very easy to cover up once you’re ready to move out.

If you want to make your rental feel like your true home, consider using the tips mentioned above to help you find ways to make some inexpensive changes.
