How to decorate a small apartment

With 3 roommate sharing an apartment and one common living room, it’s hard to keep their home organized with the front door leading directly into the living room without any formal entryway. And to make matters worse, there is no closet to hang coats. The solution is to build wall panels that can be painted any color and customized to include DIY coat racks, a DIY charging station and lighting with integrated wall sconces. There’s even an IKEA notice board incorporated to act as a home command center of sorts for the roommates to leave messages for each other. You’ll see how easy it is to decorate a small rental apartment with color and at the same time add the functionality of an entryway even if all you have to work with is a big blank wall.

    I love all of your episodes please make more. Ooh before I forget please demonstrate how you hang your pendant lamps because I am having a little trouble on how to hang them.

      Thank you so much for saying that – I’m working on it :) For the pendant lamp, the HEMMA light kit from IKEA that I used comes with the hanging hardware – a hook and a plastic guide for the cord. I simply put in an anchor and screwed the hook in place. Hope this helps!
