Simple Ways to Decorate Your Dorm Room

Some students say that a dorm room isn’t worth investing time in. However, we many students agree that it is their whole life when they get to college. The space you spend your time in must be beautiful and functional to enable you to study, work, and sleep comfortably. If living in a room with 1970s wood grain isn’t your idea of a good time, use these dorm room décor ideas to keep your space organized.

Add Impromptu Seating

There are many ways to add seating without bringing in extra chairs or a couch. You can get mats, poufs, and floor cushions. Stack them in a corner or place them at the foot of your bed to make them easily accessible but away from high traffic areas. Even if you don’t plan to do a lot of entertaining, the pieces offer relief from sitting in a chair or lying on a bed

Get Creative with Storage

The most important word you should remember when creating storage in your dorm room is stacking. Turn every hidden space and nook into a storage area. For example, you can put your laptop in your desk drawer, fill the floor of your closet, and slide empty suitcases under your bed. If horizontal space isn’t enough, make use of vertical space.

Light Up

Dorm lighting isn’t the best in the world. Add different light sources to brighten up your room. Since you don’t have to pay for utilities, you can add as many fixtures as you want. However, be careful not to go overboard. Lights that look good in dorm rooms include desk lamps, pendant lamps, floor lamps, and rope lights.
