Adding Throw Pillows And These 4 Things Can Take Your Room From Boring To Bold Real Quick

In This Article:

Moving into your own space is so exciting yet tough on the bank account. Over my years I have lived in your typical dorm, apartments with two twins, suites and now, a house. Each year I enjoyed decorating because it was what I wanted. Over the years, I found different ways to make my little section of the room feel more welcoming and relaxing. Here are some of my best tips to make your home away from home a little more "home-y."

1. Throw Pillows

Throw pillows are always a good way to go. You can never have too many, but if you don't have enough, your bed looks too small. You can get these almost anywhere... Marshall's, TJ Maxx, Walmart, Christmas Tree and more!

2. Christmas Lights

Christmas lights or white lights are the perfect touch for any room. They give off such warm vibes and set a good mood.

3. Pictures

You can never have enough pictures. If you go on Walmart's website, you can print tons of photos for really cheap.

4. Mason Jars

Mason jars for everything! Pens, scissors, make-up brushes, q-tips. They are so cute and a nice little touch.

5. Fake plants

Sounds silly, but they add color to your room!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
