These Simple DIY Apartment Upgrades for Renters Are a Game Changer

From making decorative wall sconces to sheer curtains, these simple hacks will instantly elevate your apartment – and could not be easier to execute.

If you live in a rental apartment, you're likely familiar with the frustrations of not being able to make the changes you want to your surrounds. There are obviously limits to renting, one of which is that you can't renovate. But that doesn't mean you can't update some things and make your space feel like a home.

We turned to stylist and home DIY aficionado Loui Burke for some ideas to upgrade your abode. The talented stylist has made over his inner-city rental with neutral tones and natural textures aplenty and he has plenty of ideas for how you can elevate your space.

"I love making beautiful things and the challenges that come with that. I love working within budgets and briefs. And I especially love to share what I find along the way with anyone and everyone. No gatekeeping here!" he shares with Bed Threads Journal.
