Decorating in small apartments

So when you live in an apartment there is always the challenge of how to make it feel like a home when you can't do much with it. You are not allowed to paint, you are not allowed to put nails in the walls, and you are not allowed to make any marks on the wall of any kind. Well this makes it difficult to really do much, but there are ways to decorate when you think about it.
I wanted to make Ben's room into a toy story theme. So I saw these removable stickers at the store one day and bought them. They are super cute and glow in the dark. Well, Ben's room is a room/storage room. I have to store all the baby things in there that he has grown out of like the swing and car seat and jumper. He still hasn't climbed out of his crib yet so he still sleeps in it. But I got all the stickers up and it needed a little something more. So I found these wood block letters and decided that I needed a project to keep me busy anyways. So I painted them and they went on the wall. Now all I need to complete his room in get toy story bedding, which I will probably just do when he gets a regular bed. For now his crib is still decorated in winnie the pooh.
We have a bassinet that we are going to use for the baby. So we moved that into our room and I bought some letters for his name too and decorated them. I thought they turned out so cute! So now all we need is for baby David to get here and it will all be complete! But now that I have finished I need a new project!
