Command hooks + $3 fairy lights from Dollar Tree. Drape lights above bed in a zigzag. Instant cozy hotel vibe at night. Uses zero electricity when off.

5. Throw Pillow Hack - $2.50

Buy plain pillow insert + 2 pillowcases from Dollar Tree. Mix textures - 1 knit, 1 velvet. Stack on bed. 3 pillows = $7.50 total. Looks like $60 from Target.

6. Peel-and-Stick Accent Strip - $5

1 roll of peel-and-stick wallpaper. Add a 6-inch strip behind bed as a "fake accent wall". Peels off when you move. Renters win.
