You don't have to be a design major to dorm decorating tips. These easy improvements can maximize a small space...with minimal effort.
1. Find your style
Determine what colors you like and what inspires you. Let your choice of color compliment the space and furnishings of the entire room.
2. Multifunctional furniture
Every piece of furniture in a small space should do double duty. Look for an ottoman with built-in storage or a daybed that can work as a couch. In addition to supplying extra seating, daybeds are elegant alternatives to futons.
3. Declutter your dorm
Get rid of items you don't need or don't love so you can focus on the things you do love. Organize your space so you fit in 90 percent of everything and have 10 percent open. If you have openness, the world will bring more to you!
4. Bring items from home
Instead of buying new stuff for your dorm, bring items from home that will make you feel comfortable.
5. Maximize storage space
Designate a place for every belonging. Also, don't display lotions and creams on your dresser. If you need to store something, keep it in an attractive box or basket.
6. Stylize your shelves
Break up books on your bookshelf with interesting items: travel souvenirs, mismatched picture frames or a collection of something you love.
7. Little touches
Buy fresh flowers from the supermarket or use a beautiful container to store your toothbrush—little touches can make a big difference.
