View this Video Walk-through, and the floor-plan ​below to see the initial design.

1

The original flooring was a ​laminate tile. It was poorly ​maintained with lots of ​cracks and stains. I utilized ​renter-friendly peel and ​stick linoleum tiles to ​cover the floor in the ​kitchen and living space.

Walls were spackled. ​sanded, primed and ​painted. Original grey/blue ​color in living spaces was ​changed to a blush shade, ​the bright sea-foam green ​in the bedroom was ​swapped for a darker olive ​green. The original brown ​blinds were removed, ​mounted curtain rods ​approx. 6 inches above the ​window trim with full ​length curtains

3

Metal shelving unit. ill ​mounted shelves, and ​rotting wood cabinet had ​to be torn down on the ​north wall next to the ​refrigerator. New kitchen ​wall cabinets mounted in ​their place. Lowest shelf ​in the closet was removed ​as well as both clothing ​rods, new units installed to ​maximize space.

All of the fixtures and ​exposed plumbing in the ​bathroom were hand ​painted metallic gold and ​sealed. The shower unit ​needed bleaching and ​plumbing repairs, rusted ​shower head was replaced, ​rust holes in the tub basin ​were sealed. Details were ​added to the bathroom, ​small artwork, new cabinet ​knobs on built in, replaced ​shower rod and curtain

All preexisting furnishings ​aside from the queen bed, ​and kitchen appliances ​were removed. New ​furnishing were collected, ​mainly sourced via ​Facebook Marketplace ​(transported by subway) in ​the living and kitchen ​areas.

Plans to install a track ​curtain to divide the living ​room and kitchen. Our ​living space is often used ​for overnight guests, a ​curtain will also provide ​privacy. Temporarily, ​created, and installed a ​beaded curtain.
