    Pictures, tapestries, anything to make it more inviting. Also, most places are required by law to put a fresh coat of paint whenever new tennants move in, which is the reason for the white paint. See if they will let you paint if you put it back to white b4 you move out, maybe even have them put it in your contract. I have done this before with no problem, just ask first. You don't want a "suprise" visit by the landlord to go bad.
