Renter-friendly DIY projects usually cost under two hundred dollars, especially when focusing on peel-and-stick wallpaper, thrift flips, and temporary wall textures. Budgeting for minimal tools and materials allows quick upgrades without overspending. For example, you can buy wallpaper, paint, and knobs to refresh furniture on a small budget. Keeping costs low and using removable materials protects your deposit and delivers a fresh look before spring without a large investment.
