Fashion statement headboard
Think outside the box when it comes to heads. An item like those old components could act as a statement piece and visually frame your bed, requiring nothing more than to stand against the wall with your bed anchoring them in place.

Bring bunting
a headboard can really help frame a bedroom, but if you do not, you might consider other ways to frame decoratively the area of the bed instead. This graphic string of bunting fills the space well and is light enough to be wall mounted with washi tape.

Hook a cold light
ceiling lamps suspended are big news in the interiors at this time, but if you rent, this might not go down too well with your landlord. Get around it by adjusting a small hook in the above your bed ceiling and run a flex along with a light at its end to the height, secure with a knot, and let it hang down to the desired height. Supply by simply connect it to your nearest outlet - a much lower cost and the damage to get an electrician to

Keep on the white side
If you already a white room, roll with it and stick to a monochromatic scheme so that the eyes feel special, even if it is actually just choose the default color of your landlord. Paint all the furniture incorporate black and gray in your bed linen, and add a touch of fun with patterned cushions and a carpet to stop feeling too clinical.

Attach all
If mismatched is not really your style but you're having to do with hand-me-down, paint the same color all your furniture to help unite it. It will retain more character than a "real" match game, but the color of unity will tie everything together beautifully. Eggshell paint works well on pieces of solid wood, but for difficult surfaces such as melamine or veneer, try painting with chalk instead.

Add decorative embellishments
Decorate your furniture need not always involve painting. A simple touch, as these star stickers, can turn an otherwise plain room. Beware of wall stickers, too, which can also be used on furniture in a similar manner and are removable if you wish to return the room to its original state.

Be bold with pattern
If you are allowed to paint, why not go for broke with a stripy feature wall? Paint the entire wall of a color, then hide the bands to paint in a contrasting tone. Stripes are a great way to add background pattern on the walls, and paint instead of wallpaper, it is easy to return to neutral at the end of your rental. Add a bold carpet in the mix to really make the look pop.

Embrace your artistic side
If you are hand stamped with a brush, a mural can be an inexpensive way to create a custom template on your walls that can easily be painted again when the time comes pass. If you go fully freehand seems a bit daunting, see if you can borrow a projector and shine a printed acetate on the walls as a guide, or simply the grid to an image you want to copy and the drawer of the grid the wall to help work on your model before filling.
