Style updates for renters: swappable furniture accessories

Living in a rental can feel restrictive when it comes to personalization. You might dream of a modern living space, but the dated furniture your landlord provides screams "rustic." Fear not, renters! With a few clever swaps, you can transform your rental into a space that reflects your style without breaking the bank or risking your security deposit.


The magic of castors legs:


One of the easiest and most impactful upgrades you can make is swapping out old furniture legs for casters, also known as wheels. We offer a fantastic selection of castors in various styles, materials, and colours. Here's how castors can elevate your rental:


  • Boost functionality: Castors add instant mobility to furniture, making rearranging a breeze. Need to clean under a heavy dresser? No problem!
  • Modernise your look: Swap chunky wooden legs for sleek chrome castors for a contemporary vibe. Below is our chrome castor round cup



  • Embrace Mid-Century modern: Opt for brass or gold castors to add a touch of vintage glamour.
  • Go industrial chic: Dark metal castors paired with exposed brick or concrete walls create a cool, industrial feel, like our matt black screw castor with round embellisher



Choosing the right castors:


  • Furniture style: Consider the existing style of your furniture. For traditional pieces, classic brass or black casters work well. Modern furniture pairs beautifully with chrome or brushed nickel options.
  • Floor type: Choose castors with the right tread for your flooring. Soft rubber treads are ideal for protecting hardwood floors, while wheels with rubber tyres are suitable for carpets.
  • Weight capacity: Ensure the model you select can handle the weight of your furniture.



Beyond castors: other swappable accessories


Casters aren't the only way to personalise your rental. Here are some other ideas:


  • Swap throw pillows: Replace the existing pillows with ones that match your colour scheme or theme.
  • Update hardware: Replace cabinet knobs and drawer pulls with something more modern or stylish, like our Monza cabinet handle.


  • Add artwork: Hang posters, prints, or tapestries to add personality and colour to your walls.
  • Accessorise with rugs: Lay down a statement rug to define an area and add warmth.

Remember: When making any changes to your rental, always check your lease agreement and get written permission from your landlord if necessary.


With a little creativity and these quick upgrades, you can transform your rental into a space you love to call home. So, ditch the renter blues and embrace the possibilities!
