If you rent your home, you’ll know the challenge: you want it to feel cozy and personal, but you can’t start drilling holes in walls. Luckily, there are plenty of easy fixes.
Start with floor and table lamps — they instantly change the mood of a room without any permanent changes. Place a lamp in the darkest corner, and it will suddenly feel like a cozy reading nook.
Wall clocks are another renter-friendly win. Instead of drilling, use sturdy adhesive hooks or picture strips. They’re easy to remove later, but they still let you create a focal point in your living room or hallway.
Finally, never underestimate soft furnishings like throws and rugs. They bring colour, texture, and warmth — and they move with you when you do.
Making a rented space feel like home doesn’t need to be complicated or costly. With a few well-chosen pieces, you can create comfort without leaving a mark behind.
