Customizing your pad is a challenge when you're a renter, with the (typically-outdated) kitchen one of the trickiest rooms. Home design blog Re-nest offers easy, temporary upgrades for this important space, so you can make it your own.
The backsplash can make a big difference in how a kitchen looks and feels. If you're allowed to paint, Re-nest suggests painting that small area with chalkboard paint. If you can't paint or wallpaper the area, however, you can cover ugly tiles or a boring plain wall with removable vinyl decals?handy items we've suggested before for customizing your apartment without pissing off your landlord.
Something as simple as switching out the switch plates can also make a small, but noticeable impact too.
