If you’re renting a house or apartment, you know how challenging it can be to make it reflect your style and taste. From the standard beige walls,less than desirable flooring to the outdated lighting, it’s hard to make a house that someone else owns feel like your home. There are a few ways to work around these issues and tailor your space to your own taste without drilling holes and knocking down walls.

Here are 5 easy ways to make your rental feel like home:

Hang some artwork

If your landlord is dead set against any nails going into the wall, try some picture hanging strips instead.

Replace lighting

Replace outdated ceiling lights with something a little more stylish

Hide that warped floor with a new rug

By adding a graphic rug over the floor, the carpet doesn’t seem so bad.

Create more storage

Need more storage? Consolidate and hide it behind closed doors.

Update window treatment

Soften up your room and complement your decor.
