Decorating a College Dorm Room
I tried to keep my photos and posters more organized . The "be happy, be bright, be you" poster from Sugar Paper is one of my favorites!
One of the biggest challenges of a dorm room is to work with the dark wood furniture the school provides. I always try to brighten the space up! Here I have organized most of my beauty products within these green storage boxes (similar from Poppin) and in my ceramic blue egg crate from Anthropologie.
Happy Wednesday everyone! I have finally pulled my act together and have taken a few pictures of my college dorm room to share (a good two months after I moved in...woops!) One of the great things about college is that each year you get a new blank canvas of a dorm room, a fresh start. I always love the challenge of figuring out how to arrange the furniture the best way and the excitement of decorating a new space. As I mentioned over the summer I was on a search for some new bedding..wanting to change it up from the bright sheets I had last year and move to something a bit more simple and clean. I ended up finding the perfect sheets from Parachute Home in a simple classic white (XL for college beds.) With the white and white walls I worked to add pops of color and interest throughout the room. My main accent color was blue; I was able to create a space that reflected my favorite color combination of blue and white. Due to the strange shape of my dorm room it was hard to get a good picture of the full space but here are some fun little detail images!
