Fall; a season of incredible, involuntary change and a time to harvest memorable moments with our favorite people. Sometimes being in a college dorm limits our ability to to create a "homey" atmosphere, but don't let that stop you from decorating for the the best season ever! I have gathered below some of my favorite Pinterest DIY projects that I think would be a perfect addition to any college dorm room.
1. Bring ordinary pumpkins to the next level.
Forget plain orange pumpkins, this link shares a variety of ideas that include sparkles and lots of color! Get spirited and decorate your pumpkins with your school's colors!
2. Get crafty using REAL leaves.
Go outside, get some leaves, do this craft.
3. Spice up those Mason Jars.
Who doesn't like Mason Jars? They make the world go round.
4. Create your very own Leaf Mobile.
This one looks like a lot of fun, just remember some dorms have rules against hanging things from the ceiling. I'm sure theres a cute way you could hang it on a wall!
5. Who doesn't want a paper pumpkin?
For all my fellow scrapbookers- I know you have pretty paper that was really born to become a paper pumpkin.
6. Make your door stand out.
Everyone decorates their door for Christmas but why not start early?
7. Create a personalized wreath.
Store bought wreaths are so boring. Spruce it up a little with some leaves and the initials of you and your roommate!
8. Make the cutest little scarecrow ever.
Come on; can't you picture this little guy sitting on the window sill or off the corner of your desk?
9. Find a new way to brighten your day.
A perfect addition to a set of string lights to avoid using the awful overhead lighting in your room.
10. Flip a page, make a pumpkin.
Used old, recycled paper back books to create this little thing!
11. String up some leaf garland.
I actually did this one with some felt leaves I got at Target (I looked online and it doesn't look like they sell them anymore) but I decorated my hallway with these and it looks adorable (if I do say so myself!)
12. Flannel Coasters for your friends.
Flannel is so fetch.
13. And of course coloring is always a good idea.
One of my favorite pastimes. Here's a link to a set of festive coloring pages!
