Renter Friendly Design That is Actually Landlord Approved

In the past few years, more attention than ever has been given to renter-friendly design. As house prices have drastically increased, many people have found themselves priced out of the housing market and settling in to the renter life. And while a new home can be an exciting blank canvas for self expression, rentals often come with a laundry list of stipulations that regulate what a tenant can and cannot do to personalize their space. Luckily, there are several things that can be done to make your new house feel like home, no matter how long you plan on living there.

Wallpaper Wednesday - Tips and Tricks

Have you tried hanging peel-and-stick wallpaper yet? I have hung peel-and-stick wallpaper several times but still have so much to learn. However, after completing several projects, I can confidently say that there are a few things that have helped me tremendously. Let’s look at a few things you may need to get started.

Wallpaper Wednesday - Home Office

These days, more people are working from home than ever before. Whether your clients come into your home office virtually or in-person, having a home office that expresses a feeling of confidence and professionalism can help establish you as someone who is truly an expert in their field. Look out Zoom backgrounds - you have met your match!

Wallpaper Wednesday - Dining Room

These days, the need for a formal dining room seems to be decreasing. Many newly constructed homes opt for a home office and a large dining area incorporated into the kitchen rather than a small breakfast nook and a dining room. Whether you have a formal dining room or an informal space in your open floor plan devoted to eating, these wallpapers will help your dining space be a showstopper at your next dinner party!

Wallpaper Wednesday - Primary Bedroom

For some that means a bright and airy space to feel calm and rejuvenated. For others who may work nights, a dark space that blocks out all daylight might be necessary, resulting in a moody den-like feel. Whatever your needs, there is a wallpaper that will set the desired mood!

Wallpaper Wednesday - Inspiration

Since starting this Wallpaper Wednesday series, I have gotten several questions and comments in my inbox regarding wallpaper feeling too “busy” for a space. And you know what? I 100% agree…sometimes. For some of the patterns I have shared, I think I would go crazy if all 4 walls were covered in it. Therefore, let’s go over a few ways wallpaper can be used without being overwhelming.

Wallpaper Wednesday - Nursery

There is something about babies that makes you want to buy all of the cute things. Think about the last time you went into a children’s store and saw something incredibly soft and cute. Didn’t you immediately try to think of someone you know who is having a baby just so you could buy it? No? Just me? Hmmm… To me, these wallpaper prints are the same way. They are so sweet and cute that I instantly start thinking of how I would decorate a nursery. And no, no more babies for me!
