HAPPY SUNDAY EVERYONE! Today I'm starting an renter friendly apartment makeover over at my friends apartment!! Stay tuned for more renter friendly decorating ideas to transform your space! 🏡♥️
Happy Sunday ❤
💜Thank you!😊
I am in a rental and it is a tiny house. Or an open floor plan. My bed is in my living space. I need ideas how to make that work
Can you collabe with Brittany Vasseur?
I’m new to your channel and I’m really enjoying it. I have a question about rugs. My home is a big open concept area and I use rugs to create zones. There is still lots of floor in the walkways and hallways. Should I use runners there or is that just too many rugs! 😅
Can you address that here for me or in a video for all of us who are not sure how many rugs are ok? And how matchy or just carrying hints of a color, style from one to the other area rug, etc
Thank you so much!
Ruby
Tip- get rugs the color of your dog!! ❤
As someone who moves frequently, these decorating hacks were a game-changer. The video offered creative and easily reversible solutions, making it stress-free to enhance my living space without a long-term commitment.
Truly, Kristen, you are evolving into one of the best of the RUclips decor creators! Kudos to you for your talents, dedication and sense of sharing. Your ideas are meaningful, practical and so beautifully designed.
I lived in an apartment in Los Angeles that had gorgeous bones - the walls rounded into the ceiling, there were beautiful archways & the whole place had that historic building feel. I decorated in an eclectic french country style, but the walls really needed custom paint. I had seen those beautiful mottled yellow/gold walls in restaurants in France, as well as those really pretty faded mint green finishes in pastry shops in Paris. The walls were painted in the standard white so I knew I could easily get them back to how I found them.
BUT THE MANAGEMENT COMPANY LOVED WHAT I DID SO MUCH they asked me to leave it! The manager actually got more in rent and had people falling over themselves to get my place when I moved.
Omg, yes this was so helpful. More renter friendly videos please. I always try to find ways to make my space more relaxing and enjoyable
As a renter, I really appreciate all these ideas. Thanks for this❤❤
I’m a renter. I’m in the process of painting the lower cabinets in my kitchen with Behr’s high gloss Carbon black. The upper cabinets and walls are still the original cream. I have black and white photos of the area in the middle of the wall as a backsplash, blending everything nicely. It looks so cool!
If my landlord isn’t a fan, we have a paint gun, and can quickly paint it back to a neutral color in two coats, primer first and then a lighter color of their choice.
Just know that is something you’ll need to do when you’re leaving!
I appreciated the practicality and simplicity of the DIY removable upgrades; they added a personal touch to space without any commitment. Definitely recommending this to fellow renters looking to transform their homes.
I always decorated when I was in a rental. Usually it was much nicer than what it was originally. One of my landlords said I really had a gift for decor! I love your picture frame molding room, it's so pretty!
Hello 👋
LOved this video ! Absolutely a goldmine of ideas for anyone living in a rental! I'm amazed by how easy it is to transform a space with simple DIY upgrades like peel-and-stick backsplashes and temporary window treatments.
Fantastic ideas Kristen! I love your home. It's so cozy and beautiful. I have the weirdest apartment the is impossible to configure. I'm looking to you for inspiration❣🏡
Hi Kirsten, this came at just the right time. Jumping off point to create a living space that brings me joy.
I have just recently discovered your channel and I am hooked!! I love your ideas!
Kristen, you beautifully shared with us those tips and we appreciate it so much. 🥰🥰
I am saving this video since I rent so I can take tips, thank you Kristen.
Superbe vidéo 👍🏼merci pour tout les bon conseils 😊.prenez bien soin de vous
Hola! Me encantan tus vídeos, pero no sé inglés y no entiendo lo que explicas.
Decoras hermoso!!!!
Saludos desde Ensenada, México.
Ooo. Thanks for reminding me! I have the original paint colors in my basement! I completely forgot about that! Now, I can touch up some dingy spots, without having to repaint the whole thing in a different color! Perfect!
So many great tips!!
I love the double layer rugs you have in that space❤
When renting I have used so many of these ideas!!! I get so many ideas from your videos!!!
Kristen you are terrific! My fav decorator! Your videos are so informative n smart. Thank you!!!!
I love this i like that every thing doesn't have to be permanent even if you are not renting so many great tips I can't wait to try them out
Loving your inspiration
I’m in a rental and plan on using some of these tips and tricks. One thing I found is Amazon carries a closet rod that hangs from the existing one so you can easily turn it into a double hanging wall - plus it extends so you can do a shorter or longer section. This helped me a lot!
Love this thank u!! This is Right on time for the client im doin there apartment make over for.❤
Yes! Thank you! ❤
So many great ideas. I am in a rental, know my paint color (Navajo White) and have painted over all kinds of things. Totally can relate to this.
Love your ideas Kristen.❤
Yes, I'm in a rental and these were great tips!!!
I love the closet curtain tip. I'm gonna do that. Thx
This is super helpful even for homeowners. I find it useful because I like changing up a lot and if it’s too permanent it’s more work for me the next go around. Thank you @KristenMcGowan for ALL your wonderful, educational and helpful vlogs. ❤ bummer you don’t do jobs in NYC. Much needed help in my home
You're so right about lighting! We have no hook-up for pendant lighting in several of our rooms and it's super hard to make up for it with floor and table lamps. I'm going to look for sconces like yours. Thanks!
Great ideas, Kristen. Love your videos.❤
Fantastic vid love it so helpful and inspiring in a rental that needs some serious decoration so will be using some of your tips . Defo will watch this vid again
Excellent video-helpful for renters or homeowners!
Thanks for the great tips! ❤
Thank you,Kristen.
I love your channel and ideas! I would love to go decor shopping with u! lol 💕 I’m so excited to see the new apartment makeover
You always have absolutely the best ideas, Kristen, about everything!! Thanks so much for sharing and for all the hard work you put into your beautiful RUclips channel which, in turn, helps me have a more beautiful and cozy home. Happy Halloween and the best upcoming holiday season sweet girl!! As always, hope you are well. Much love. ❤❤
LOVE THIS (+ your other renter friendly videos I just watched). So glad I found you! We’re moving into a new apartment soon & im definitely going to utilize the ideas you’ve shared! Curious if you’ve ever done a DIY fireplace…would love to add a fireplace into our space making an elegant cozy look, not like a cheap fireplace look if that makes sense 😂
Very motivating, thank you🇦🇺🐨🦘
Command hooks are best!!!! No holes to fix, extra work!!
Great advice! 😊❤😊
Happy Sunday Kristen, thanks so much for this renter friendly tips, when everything in your space is old like the hills, with your do's limited. Can you give me ideas how I can decorate an old toilet the one with the flush handle no tank, you know that industrial one.
Thank you Kristen for another informative video. I would like to know where you got the covers for your cables
She is so awesome 👏👏
I’ve meant to tell you this forever - you have the most gorgeous hair!!!
Great tips! ❤ ❤❤
These tips are amazing
Your shoes I keep seeing them and they're soo cute
Lovely video and very useful. Ine idea for a video , something that I would need: a review of the most useful items for home renivations, their look and the vocabulary / names of those items and their usage. I don’t realy have an idea what is out there very handy for little repares and creations. Going to wearhouse is overwhelming ans hard to chose . Thank you.
Great Advice
When I first started living in apartments, I was so used to college dorm and apartment rules that I was quite resistant to putting up pictures! But then my husband, a much more seasoned mover and apartment dweller was like, "Dude, put this on the walls, these tiny nails hardly do anything and they can be easily filled." -- I've always loathed the look of most temporary hooks and was so grateful, lol!
Now the place we've had for almost four years has pretty unsightly, unevenly patched walls and dated fixtures, as well as some pretty old doors, cabinets, etc. It wouldn't be worth the investment at this point to store and replace light fixtures, but luckily our furniture, lamps, and decor (and a vaulted ceiling) have brought a lot of warmth to make it feel like home. However I just might ask what our options might be for painting the main wall a different color.... They'll need to repair some wall & paint damage from an old leak anyway, so I'm thinking the odds are in my favor 😁
Kristen - Top Tier Vlogger, amazing content creator, absolutely positively amazing friend, & motivational human to all ❤️ You are truly amazing! Don't ever ever forget that 🥹💕
Thank you Maria!!💗
Happy October Kristen!! 😊
I’m buying the hole repair stat! When a water link ruined a wall, I asked the contractor to leave me a small can of the paint. I can now repair any holes! I have several complete gallery walls.
Hey Brenda 🌹
How are you doing..?
I prefer dap pink putty, putty, knife, and sand paper. Less waste and more economical.
Hey Caitlin 🌹🌹
How are you doing..?
As always really great tips! Question tho, what’s the best option to hang pictures and paintings in a rental if your walls are high-gloss painted brick walls? Thank you!!
I’m very impressed with the couple of videos I have watched of yours so far! Even if it’s something I know already, you have great points and techniques bound to help so many!
Sure wish someone could see my place though and give me input. Its small and unique.. although I’ve found great advice and ideas, it’s so case specific. I need the exact right pieces in very precise measurements to make it work. Oi vey.
Can you do a baby room remodel? 😀
I’m renting an apartment that I have no control over when it comes to painting walls and different color or putting up peel and stick wall paper. The wall is white and the flooring which I don’t really like is mosaic wood flooring, what are some tips for decorating around this type of apartment? Also love this video and I 100% agree with Everything you said! Thank you so much for doing these Videos they are so helpful and inspiring ❤❤❤❤❤
Hi, Kristen, We are wanting to renovate our kitchen. We want a high end, modern look, but also something that will be classic. It is a small kitchen and open to dining and living rooms. What color of cabinets do you recommend? And, what style of doors? Thank you!!
Great video as always, thank you! 😊
Does anybody know where the rug at 07:59 is from?
Hello, for a curtain instead of a closet door would you use the same color as the window curtains? Thanks!
Question, can you use picture framing only in some parts or is it a vibe that has fit the overall space? I am trying to style my stair well wall (bungalow). I was thinking picture framing but if i dont have that anywhere else will it look odd?
❤❤❤
Hi, could you do a video bon how to drill please? I want to put up a better curtain pole in my rental but have only managed to secure it with two screws using the previous holes! I still have the centre bracket to put up if it's going to hold some new longer thicker curtains. I have no idea how to use a drill, how far to drill in, what size bit, etc so I haven't bought one & no one wants to come do this small job. Thanks if you could help would be great.
I love the ideas, especially the molding, BUT yes, I can take down the ceiling fan and take off the doors. The question becomes where do I keep them? Am I renting a storage unit for example? I'm not sure if many people have that in their budgets. Great ideas though.
Hi Kristen! Could you please link the tree behind you at the beginning of the video?
❤
These can be home use too not just for rentals 😊
👌🏻👌🏻
If my bedroom is light gray which color of wall sconce should I use? Black gold or silver.
Kristen, I’m in a rental and wondered your views on the peal and stick wallpaper? Thank you
Great question! I’ve seen it done in some videos but it looks like a two-person job.
I love watching your RUclips what a cleaver idea I have an issue deciding do you recommend any one to talk to near port Charlotte FL pls side I don’t know where you located thank you
I’m a renter and would love to put the trim but I don’t understand how it doesn’t leave nail holes as I thought it nailed it to the wall but when your peeling it off it looks like there are no holes? Xo
I have a gas fireplace in the corner of the living room area. Any Idea with molding? or would molding the room look classic? Need help. Thank you.
🥰
👍👍👍👍👍
What are your thoughts on papasan in apt? Does it cheapen look? Wish I could post pic..
Isn't there a peel and stick moulding option? I'm so scared to put holes in my apartment walls. Plus, I don't have a nail gun.
8:57 I search your links but can’t find these awesome wall shelves. Can you provide?
Kristen, HELP! I bought the sconces off your Amazon store and the recharging cable doesn't fit the bulb! Amazon says they can't replace it! Can you do anything to help me????
What colour is your paint here in the living room?
Oh please give me some closet ideas cause the master bedroom has no closet
Word of caution from a previous renter who used cord covers. The ones I got on Amazon were extremely adhesive when it came time to remove and lots of drywall ripped off, even with use of a heat gun to help.
Did you find a better one that doesn’t rip paint or drywall?
3:36
I’m a renter but the problem I see is landlords dont like doing drills in their rental flats. Are there other tips to decorate without the need to drill?
I upgraded my rental and then my landlord increased the rent, probably because it looks so much more presentable than the last tenant 😢
Where have you been? I need someone like to help me.
I think I received a spam message from you, regarding I was a winner. I have watched your channel for awhile now and haven't heard you doing a give away
Most of these only work in the USA.. we have solid concrete and steel frame walls in Europe ..so a little nail gun doesn't work.
Stop with the picture frame moulding. It's just more surfaces that catch dust.
No worries, I have my scullery maid take care of it. 🤣🤣🤣
@@brendatomlinson i am that maid! I clean houses🤣
For me this moulding looks rather antiquated, I‘d never do that.
I think it was just a suggestion for people who like the look. No opinion was needed if it's not your style. What was the solution to making this comment? No one cares!!!!!
@ivoriebillings7532 because i clean houses for a living. Like i said, it catches dust and will look neglected and dirty in time. One one will dust them, trust me. But hey, you clearly know more than the housecleaner with 25 yrs of experience in the practicalities of interior design. By all means, take your opions and your haughty and rude attitude elsewhere. Have a nice day.
The neutral white, cream, off white whatever trend that all the YT have looks like no life lives there. Looks nice just not practical
