Learning how to decorate rental walls is something I've mastered after renting 6 different flats over a decade. As a homes and interiors journalist I spend my days looking at beautiful images of homes, and my evenings working out how to translate those looks in my flat without losing my deposit.
When looking into how to decorate a rented home, especially the walls of one, you first need to address how amenable your landlord will be to letting you make changes. Many landlords will happily let you paint walls and hang shelves, as long as you return the space to how you found it when your tenancy ends.
