5 Tips to styling your rental property
————————————–
Hang mirrors in dark spaces
Mirrors are one way to brighten up your space. Choose between individual ones, or go for a floor-to-ceiling mirror that will reflect light and make even small rooms feel more open!
Make the most of your paint colour
To make your house look its best, you need the right colour. Lighter hues on walls will bounce more light around making rooms seem larger than they actually are. If you’re looking to brighten up your space, don’t have the time or money for new paintwork but still want some flair then try using different types of curtains in coordinating colours with some soft furnishings.
Think outside the house
When you’re renting a house, it’s easy to focus on what goes inside – but don’t forget about the outside. A messy backyard can make tenants feel disgruntled from day one; while an overgrown garden will only deteriorate as time passes by. Small additions such as furniture and pot plants can make a world of difference!
Flooring that will last
If you want to keep your carpets in good shape, don’t get light-coloured ones. The wear and tear from tenants will make them look old before too long! Consider darker colours instead- underlay is key here though because it doesn’t just cover up any problems with quality but also helps even the cheapest flooring feel thick.
Vinyl tiles are an easy-to-clean material that won’t wear out over time. It works great for kitchens and bathrooms because it’s water-resistant, meaning your surfaces will be protected from accidental spills or splashes!
Lampshades
Lampshades can be boring, so to make rooms more interesting add an elegant lampshade. The eye is automatically drawn towards light and adding some extra flair will help create the perfect atmosphere in any space! For a sustainable option try LED bulbs that last around 10-15 years – they also boost your EPC rating!
