How to Decorate Your Apartment

Most of the time when you are renting an apartment you don't have the option of changing the color of the paint on the walls, or the carpeting on the floors, but you can still make it feel like home. Your apartment can show your personality even when the walls and floors are all the same boring color.

How to Decorate Your Apartment

• Hang pictures and artwork on the walls.
  
  
  
  
• To make a focal point in a room purchase one or more of those large vinyl stickers that will look like it's been painted on the wall once it's applied. When you move, they peel right off without harming the wall.
  
  
  
  
• If your kitchen lacks storage, hang a pot rack on the wall for your pots.
  
  
  
  
• Fill a bookcase with canvass bins in a color you like and use them for storage.
  
  
  
  
• Use bedding, pillows and curtains to add color to your rooms.
  
  
  
  
• Often apartment light fixtures are unattractive, use lamps instead.
  
  
  
  
• If storage is a problem purchase pieces that have two purposes, such as an ottoman that opens for storage, or pretty trunks that you can store linens in.
