#apartment hack

This hack is easy and I’m not going to waste your time with a back story.

Are you renting a home with crap landscaping like I am? The bushes at my rental are half brown and missing SO many leafs..I hated driving by!

Well All you have to do is buy a can of spray paint in a color that matches your foliage and spray away. YES, that’s it! I sprayed these bushes 6 months ago and the paint has held up to snow rain and hail. Now I’m no embarrassed about bushes that I can’t cut down since I am renting this place!

BOOM!

Before this so called “Evergreen” plant was brown and looked parched by the Dallas sun. AFTER spray paint it looks so much better! 

This plant is missing SO many leaves so I painted the bare branches and it looks SO much better!

This is the bush that is missing half it’s leafs :( but looks SO much better after painting the bare branches! Scroll down to see “Before”!
