Put a Big Emphasis on Accessories
If you find the walls a little bland or the carpets a little grubby, then disguising it all with accessories is your best bet on transforming it into your dream room. For example, if your floor is looking a little worse for wear, replacing it is out of the option because, well, you are renting, but a fun or stylish rug can make an excellent adjustment and is something that you can take with you when you move.
Large house plants can disguise walls and also give a wholesome and natural feel to the room. Not to mention the other benefits that come with having plants in the bedroom.
Accessories like this work really well in making something your own space when you do not have your own place and have to share with others. That being said, you can find the perfect rented bedroom for you by looking at rooms to rent in London. You can often find that these will need minimal fixing up and only need your existing belongings to add personality.

Removable Wallpaper
If you know you are going to be sticking around in your chosen abode for a while, you might want to make that extra effort and invest in removable wallpaper. Removable wallpapers are relatively easy to use, come in various different styles and colors, and can completely transform a room without the heavy lifting that comes with traditional decorating.
When you are done with it, you can simply peel it away to reveal the original state of the walls before you have to move out.

Focus on Furniture
In big cities like London, you will find thousands upon thousands of unique pieces to kit out your room with, especially for cheap or even free. Looking at places such as Facebook Marketplace, Freecycle, Gumtree, or even just the corner of your street will usually present you with some great options you can upcycle.
Furniture can have a dramatic impact on a room. It can influence how big it looks, whether it seems clustered or claustrophobic, whether it feels cozy and comfortable, and whether it works for you or not.
Using furniture to create your dream rented room is an easy way to get the look and function you want while being able to take everything away with you when the time comes to move.
