6 Ways to Decorate Your Dorm

Decorating your dorm or apartment may be one of the most difficult projects within your first week of class. 🙂 So, here are some tips for setting up your space!

You want to create a space that is both relaxing and functional. Your room is where you start & end each day & spend many hours in between. It’s where you need to both pep yourself up for the day ahead & switch off once it’s over every night.

1. PegBoard

A pegboard is the perfect way to combine style & function! Use the board on your desk to organize your class supplies or as a way to hang up photos, clocks, decor, etc. without putting holes in the wall! 🙂

2. Simple Wall Decor

Decorating your walls does not have to be expensive! Use wooden clipboards or pant hangers to showcase your photos, mottos, inspiration & posters!
