Thrift flips like repainting furniture with primer and two coats of enamel or updating hardware are perfect for rental home makeovers. For instance, a thrifted dresser can be refreshed with new pulls and paint without altering your rental's walls or floors. These inexpensive upgrades add style and function, personalize your space, and are portable when moving. Focus on pieces you can easily transport and avoid permanent installation to maintain your deposit's safety.
