Use What You Have
If you are like most renters, you have stuff that you have picked up as you have moved from place to place. These odds and ends can make great decorations with just a little creativity. Do you have things like candleholders, canisters and mirrors that don’t match? Take those little mirrors and group them on a wall to create a sort of collage in your main room. This can help make the room look bigger and add a creative touch to the space.
Paint! Paint! Paint!
Most of the time, when you move into a new space the paint needs a little sprucing up. Painting the rooms can create the perfect ambiance. Before you start painting, ask landlord if it’s alright. Nine times out of ten the landlord won’t mind as long as you paint it back to the original color before moving out.
Warm Welcomes

This may include seating, ambiance, food and drinks. You can rearrange the furniture so be better for entertaining and light some candles for a soothing ambiance.
