When you're on a month-to-month rental or without a definite plan to staying in the location, there is a tendency to resist making changes and really moving in. This could be a missed opportunity. In a sense, the lease term should not make a difference in your ability to enjoy your living space.
Whether you have a month-to-month rental with no utilities included or a long-term apartment rental with utilities included, you can make the most of your investment. You can make every moment you stay happier, more relaxing, and more rewarding.
Moving in and making a home can be a gradual process, but it is important to make a start. You can begin with simple updates. For plant lovers, a great start is to visit a nursery or get clippings from a generous plant-loving friend. It's all you need to get started with some favorite greenery. If you don't have favorites, then you might start with some hearty, reliable, and low-maintenance types. Plants fill space, add color, attract the eye with interest, and freshen the air. Plants give you a touch of nature and the outdoors.
You can hang drapes to start a color scheme or cover a plain-looking window with a creative window treatment. A few plants and some window treatments will give you a great start in defining your space. You can add colorful candles and mix in objects that carry your favorite scents to remind you of home.
Home furnishings are a key to enjoying your stay and getting the best value from your apartment rental. When selecting furnishings, you should look for high-quality furniture. They can be antique, period pieces, or the most modern styles and materials. Your tastes can reflect your personality and enhance your moods.
Another great way to really move in is to display things that have meaning, such as through keepsakes and sentimental items that remind you of important people, places, or times in your life. If you make your apartment look like home, then you can always feel at home.
