5 No-Fuss Ways to Add Color to a Room Without Paint

Enjoy the following pic ideas. Don't forget to leave us a quick comment below.

And please share this post within your social networks.

  • When you live in an apartment, you’re limited as to how you can add your own style to your living space. This is especially true of adding color to your walls. In most apartments, you can’t paint.

    Since you can’t paint your walls, how can you jazz up your apartment with a more colorful palette?

    Try these ideas to add color to your apartment:

1. Embroidered prints or tapestries

Notes:

  • You may not be able to paint your walls, but you can always hang something the length of your wall with plenty of color. An embroidered print or tapestry won’t just add fun colors or patterns to your wall, but it can also bring some texture into the room.
  • Fabric tapestries are so versatile that they can be draped over furniture or even pinned to the ceiling. Depending on the fabric you choose, you can bring a global vibe to your apartment.
  • A popular example of this is the bohemian mandala tapestries that you can hang. The light cotton fabric and color schemes are usually very relaxing and peaceful.
  • You can also find some African-inspired designs, Indian Batik ink-printed designs, and Moroccan tapestries. There are more modern choices that you can use, as well. Macrame tapestries are a new trend that you can follow. Printed marble or cityscapes are also popular.

2. Large or clustered wall art

Notes:

  • Wall art is a great way to fill your wall with color. Make sure you use an easy stick-and-remove mounting tape to leave the walls free from holes. This will help you get your security deposit back when you move out (as long as you don’t damage anything else).
  • You can use frame-free canvases, framed artwork, or even posters, depending on your budget. To create a wall that isn’t overcrowded or messy looking, you will want to take design and layout into consideration. You might have some artworks that look beautiful on their own, but they might not look good next to other pieces.
  • Wall galleries are a popular way to liven up a wall. They may look easy to do, but getting the placement just right can be a challenge. Take your time and experiment with different gallery layouts before you settle on one.

3. Curtains and window treatments

Notes:

  • Instead of adding color to your walls, you can frame your windows with color. If you do it right, it can brighten up the entire room. Adding floor-to-ceiling curtains will create a more dramatic effect, and with more fabric comes more color.
  • If you would prefer not to use curtains, you can find other colorful window treatments, such as roll-up blinds, Roman shades, or even stick-on window decals that look like stained glass. Perhaps you aren’t quite ready for an entire change in drapes. You can still find a way to add color to your window treatments by adding some eye-catching curtain accessories.
  • Whether it’s colorful curtain holders or a bright valance, dressing up your windows is a wonderful way to add some points of interest to an otherwise monotone room.

4. Stick-on wallpaper

Notes:

  • You might be thinking that wallpaper isn’t an option. If you can’t paint the walls, you certainly can’t put up wallpaper, right? Wrong! The fiasco involved in putting up and taking down permanent wallpaper has been a thorn in many a home improver’s sides. For this reason, stick-on wallpaper was invented.
  • No more sticky wallpaper paste. No more scraping off unwanted wallpaper. No more uneven wallpaper strips. Now, you can stick on and then peel off wallpaper at your will.
  • This type of wallpaper is ideal for renters because it comes off easily without damaging the walls. This will ensure a quick move-out and that you get your full deposit back.
  • Stick-on wallpaper comes in lots of colors and patterns to choose from, so you can’t use lack of availability as an excuse. There’s really something for everyone, no matter what their taste.

5. Bold and colorful rugs

Notes:

  • If your walls are devoid of color, you can brighten up a room by adding color to the floor with rugs. Area rugs come in all different shapes and sizes. To find the right rug for your room, consider the placement of your furniture.
  • Interior designers follow area rug rules to find out what would work in a space. Depending on what room of the apartment you’re using, there are different ways you can arrange your rugs.
  • For example, when deciding what size rug to use in the living room, you have three choices. Either have all of thefurniture’s legs on the rug, only the front legs on the rug, or just the coffee table on the rug.

Bonus: hang your favorite finds

Notes:

  • There’s really no written rule on what you can and can’t hang on your walls. If you like something and want to put it on display, you can hang it!
  • This includes plates, hats, tiles, decals, and collectibles. If you can find a way to safely attach them to the wall, they are fair game!
  • CONCLUSION

    When you start thinking outside of the box, you’ll see that there are limitless ways to add color to your apartment without ever picking up a paintbrush. These above creative ways are just a drop in the bucket.

  • You can have a colorful, cheery apartment that you love to live in. The key is to find pieces and materials that speak to your soul, then display them in a way for all to enjoy.
