Welcome back Collegiettes! With all the excitement of the back-to-school season, shopping and planning have taken over most of our brains. Still looking for those extra little touches to make your room totally yours? Here’s some of our favorite ways to decorate our dorm rooms:
1. Mason Jars
Practical storage that is also super cute? Perfect! All you have to do for this one is get some mason jars, paint or spray paint them, set them out the dry, and put all our school supplies right inside!
2. Photo Displays
Everyone loves to put their favorite pictures on display, but why be bland with picture frames? To be unique, print out all the photos you love, and put them on your wall in whatever shape or form you want!
3. String Photos
Another great way to display all your awesome pics is to hang string lights on your wall and clothespin the photos to the lights. That way when all the lights are off in your room, you can still see your wonderful photos!
4. DIY Monthly Calendars
Organization is key, and it can easily be done with this awesome calendar! Get a picture frame, spray paint the frame whatever color you like best, print or draw a giant calendar on paper, and put it in the frame. Then use the glass as a draw erase board for your monthly events and to-dos. For an extra touch, make your calendar out of square paint samples from Lowe’s or Home Depot!
5. Tapestries
Who doesn’t love a good tapestry? You can hang it on your wall with some lights or even all on its own!
