Use large paintings to help cover wall
Sarah.tom.vinc - To change a wall color you can make large frames and cover with colorful fabric material. Frame/Panels made of 2x2 and Fabric stapled to the frame and mounted on the wall.
Thanks, I like your ideas.
Art work/pictures hung up with command strips if they don't let you put nails in the wall. Bright curtains if you want to add color without painting.
Use fabric and starch! You soak material in the starch and apply like you would wallpaper. Peels off with not damage to walls when you leave. Just give a little wipe down and as good as new! Check this one out for step by step: http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/how-to-make-removable-fabric-w-74483
Or you can buy removeable wall stickers (no holes in walls either) Here is just one place that sells them: https://www.wallpops.com/wall-pops.aspx But there are many more. Happy choosing your designs.

You can buy some beautiful removable wall stickers to decorate your walls. I bought some wall stickers on https://kamiqiwallz.com/. These wall stickers are all of high quality and easy to install. You can also try it
Before doing anything, please call your city/town code department. MOST locales require landlords to paint every specific number of years and also when a new tenant moves in. Similar codes regarding carpet cleaning, etc. You may just find out that the landlord MUST do certain things to fix your place up! Good luck!
