After recently moving into a new apartment, I realized that my place looks a little stark. Although I’ve had some experience with dressing up dull spaces with my college dorm rooms, it’s still not easy trying to figure out how to enliven the small box of white walls, beige carpet and dusty mini-blinds. In search of decorating ideas that fit within my small budget I found Rental Decorating Digest, a site devoted to decorating tips, style guides, product and book reviews, and organizing ideas. I managed to find some good ideas on how to cheaply add splashes of color to my walls without annoying my landlord. I’ve also found some ways to cheaply furnish my apartment that don’t involve cinderblock bookshelves and beanbags by experimenting with finds from salvage stores.
It’s a good thing I found this site since I was a Nyttja away from turning my apartment into an Ikea room display.
