Moving into a dingy, drab college dorm? Not sure how to make it feel a bit more like home? I’d highly recommend decor. But how does one decorate a dorm? Here are some ideas.
Command strips!
Command strips are your best friend for hanging up things without getting fined for leaving marks on the walls.
Washi tape.
Another cute way to add color to your room without breaking the bank or the wall.
Light!
Add a lamp to your room or some Christmas lights and it’ll look brighter and way more fun. I got a super cute star lamp from Wal-Mart for like $10!
Mirror
Mirrors make the room look a lot bigger and they’re functional too. If your decor does double duty, that's always a plus.
Tapestries
They’re totally in style right now and totally chic!
Art
Make some of your own or have your friends make you some before you leave for college! Make a college out of pictures of your friends and family from home and you'll feel like they’re right there with you.
Ottoman
An extra seat and an extra spot for storage? Sounds like a win to me!
Generally, try to keep the decor minimalist to help the space not look cluttered and make it easier to pack up when you move out. Happy decorating!
