Touch up tips for your rental home
Renting a property often comes with limitations on what you can do to personalise the space. However, with a little creativity and the right paint techniques, you can transform your rental home into a space that reflects your personality without breaking the rules. Below we'll explore some rental touch-up tips that can be achieved with paint, offering practical solutions for enhancing your living space while staying within lease guidelines.
How To Guides
Statement features
Another effective way to elevate your rental space with paint is by creating statement features that draw the eye and add personality to the room. For example, painting the front door in a bold colour like Jade Blue can instantly enhance curb appeal and make a memorable first impression. Additionally, you can use paint to highlight architectural details such as crown moulding, trim, or built-in shelving, adding depth and character to the space without making permanent alterations. By strategically incorporating statement features, you cantransform your rental into a stylish and inviting home.
Furniture facelifts
In addition to updating the walls, don't overlook the potential for paint to refresh your furniture and accessories. Give old or mismatched pieces a new lease on life by painting them in complementary colours. Go bold and opt for Plunder for a pop of electric blue. You can also use paint to unify your decor scheme by coordinating the colours of different furniture pieces or creating custom accents that tie the room together. With a little paint and creativity, you can transform ordinary furniture into one-of-a-kind statement pieces that reflect your personal style.
Temporary transformations
One of the biggest challenges of renting is finding ways to make the space your own without making permanent changes. Consider using peel-and-stick removable wallpaper or temporary wall decals to create accent walls that add patterns and textures to your space. These temporary applications can be easily removed when it's time to move out, allowing you to experiment with different styles and colours without the fear of damaging your walls.
