Interior design, decor & style guides; Home renovation & extension

You've got the keys from your landlord, moved into your new home, and the boxes are unpacked. Now you want to put your stamp on the place, but how do you do this when you can't paint the walls, refurbish the kitchen or replace the old, tired flooring?

And can you really live with magnolia walls? What about those outdated kitchen cupboards? Not to mention the tattered lampshades, old sofa and sparse furniture...

In this invaluable book, award-winning interiors blogger Medina Grillo shares her favourite tips, tricks and DIY projects for transforming a rented space. Discover ways to add a splash of colour with removable wallpaper, learn how to hang artworks without damaging the walls, and turn your hand to upcycling those furniture bargains you picked up at the flea market.

With chapters covering all aspects of the home, from walls, flooring and lighting to storage and accessories, HOME SWEET (RENTED) HOME will enable every reader to make their house feel like home, whether they are a DIY expert or have never before lifted a paintbrush.

Filled with photography and illustrations, it is the perfect read for any renter looking to live in a beautiful and stylish home.
