Do you have a student headed off to college? Here are some ideas for decorating that awkward dorm room. Lots of times, the walls are cinder block, the beds are metal and the rooms are small and sharing a room may not be something all that desirable.
Keep the bedding bold and bright! Use patterned sheets and again...lots of fun pillows!

| Don't forget to pick up bed risers or bricks to lift the bed up for added storage below. Using a decorative sheet, add a bedskirt for a clean look |
Oftentimes, you can't do much with the walls but this is a great idea. Embroidery hoops with fun fabrics stretched into them and arranged on a blank wall makes for a great way to dress up the wall. Use Command Hooks to keep them secured to the wall.
Mini Christmas lights add a nice touch of ambient lighting and also provide a great place for young adults to clip their favorite pics with friends.
Vinyl is another great way to dress up a wall. They are easy to place and easy to remove without damaging the wall. Don't have a fancy machine to cut your own vinyl designs? No problem, you can buy rolls of vinyl then handcut your designs.
Create your own unique art on canvas. Any simple design painted or drawn with marker. It helps define your space and creates a place of your own.
