Renting a new flat opens up a world of possibilities for expressing your unique style. It\u2019s not hard to view a unit for the first time and be flooded with ideas and grand plans for a space that feels like a blank canvas. But if you\u2019ve ever rented a flat, you probably know the landlord-tenant relationship is a delicate balance of rights and responsibilities. While your new unit is yours to do as you please, it has to be within reason or you won\u2019t receive your tenancy deposit back when you finally turn in your keys. So how do you give your flat a facelift that reflects your personal taste without damaging or fundamentally altering your unit? The solution lies in non-permanent solutions.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Radiator Covers<\/h3>\n

Old or ugly radiators can be a focal point in your flat for all the wrong reasons. A radiator cover from Sentimo<\/a> can change that. Designed to be placed over your existing radiator and held in place by magnets, a cover can modernise your space and add a touch of style without affecting heat conduction. Made of high-quality galvanised sheet steel and available in over 50 colours, it\u2019s easy to find one that will suit your taste. When it\u2019s time to move, it can be removed in seconds without damage.<\/p>\n

Peel-and-Stick Wallpaper<\/h3>\n

Landlords may frown upon the idea of traditional wallpapering, but even if you get the green light, there are better ways to do it. Peel-and-stick wallpaper gives you all the charm of the traditional variety without the hassle. Best of all, it comes right off. Whether you\u2019re moving out or simply want to change things up, it\u2019s as easy as peeling it back \u2013 without a scraper, of course.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Temporary Window Treatments<\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re expected to fill and paint over any holes you make in your walls before you leave, you might be second-guessing drilling and hanging curtains and blinds. Thankfully, there are plenty of options for such a situation. Adjustable no-drill curtain rods are a popular alternative to classic brackets and offer privacy without the pain of creating holes. Similarly, you can find cost-effective paper blinds that can be hung in your window with non-damaging adhesive.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For almost anything you can envision for your new home, there\u2019s an alternative available that won\u2019t break the terms of your lease agreement. With solutions like radiator covers and temporary window and wall designs, you can get the best of both worlds for a bargain.<\/p>\n
