What did you change in your own place, and did it work

  1. Took down the curtains and put up blinds. Small thing. The room feels twice the size and it cost 15k.
  2. Light is always the cheapest renovation. Nobody believes it until they do it.
  3. Painted one wall. One. The landlord has not noticed and the flat feels like mine now.
