Furniture features Don't underestimate the power of furniture to transform a home. Invest in beautiful statement pieces that bring a smile to your face — and that will stay with you when you leave. If space is at a premium, as it often is in rentals, select furniture with a double purpose: a sofa with a fold-out bed for guests, coffee tables and ottomans with storage, and entertainment consoles with drawers and cupboards. Cover the floors Interlocking vinyl planking is simple to install — and later remove — and can quickly cover tired timber or cracked tile floors. It comes in a great range of finishes and is affordable. Fun and fab for kids and playrooms, interlocking foam tiles are another inexpensive and quick flooring option. Carpets can't be ripped up and relegated to the bin in rental properties, but rugs can be easily layered over uninviting spaces. For a flooring fix that 1 looks like timber, use glue-free vinyl planks ABOVE Flexi Storage ‘Studio’ freestanding 3 shelf and hanging rail unit, $180, I/N: 0332533; 2 drawer and hanging rail unit, $209, I/N: 0332535; and 2 drawer and 4 shelf unit, $264, I/N: 0332536, all in Oak/Black 66 bunnings.com.au | (O) bunnings | ®) bunnings Mirror, mirror... ‘Dark and dingy’ are words too often associated with rentals, but this can be eased with the clever use of mirrors. By enhancing light and giving the illusion of space, mirrors are transformative, affordable and removable. Go big with a statement mirror over a console or mantle, hang a gallery of mirrors as a design feature, or create a new ‘window’ by positioning a mirror to reflect a view. Storage is king Many rentals aren't blessed with great built-in storage, leading to unnecessary clutter. As well as multifunctional furniture, look to storage solutions like freestanding wardrobes and cube units, which are simple to assemble and remove at the end of the tenancy. Lightweight frames and removable adhesive | hangers turn a blank space into a gallery wall| a Art for art’s sake Not only will hanging art make a space feel more personal, research shows it will also make you happier** — but you need to avoid damaging walls with unsightly nails and screw holes. For lighter items, like posters and smaller frames, Command strips (velcro-like strips) or adhesive picture hangers are your best friend. Leaning artworks on mantels, bookshelves and even the floor creates a delightfully bohemian look; secure to the wall with an adhesive hanger for safety. If you are lucky enough to have picture rail moulding, you can hang multiple pieces, nail free, with picture rail hooks and wire. yacnasrmeltie- pommel
