      Using the storage your apartment comes with—such as a bathroom vanity—to your full advantage is a smart small-apartment idea for saving space. By maximizing what you already have, you eliminate the need for add-on storage units that make a room feel cramped. Stackable or pull-out storage in a bathroom vanity fills the vertical space and tidies up bathroom necessities. Layering gives an apartment a touch of sophistication. Take this trick to the floor with a duo of area rugs. Anchor a furniture arrangement with a simple neutral rug, and place a second statement rug on top of it. See the difference? 

   You might be stuck with basic apartment finishes and materials, but that doesn't mean you can't have fabulous furniture. Fill the space with pieces you love to help make it your own. In every room, choose a statement furniture piece to become the focal point. With a stunning pink sofa or midcentury modern dining table, you'll quickly forget about any less-than-ideal features you can't change. Be creative, love where you live. Rent an appartment with PACE Realty Group.

     Having a cute and comfortable appartment brings not only joy to life but great impressions from friends and family when they come over for dinner. Small apartment decorating ideas on a budget require a little creativity and ingenuity, especially if you want your deposit back. Proving that temporary can be clever, this art display of black-and-white prints is installed with neon pink washi tape. Mixing almost-all-black prints with lighter fare brings depth to the casual arrangement.
