Below, however, are some great ideas that you can use to turn that dull boring dorm room into the exciting home you'll be comfortable in.
Dorm room decorating ideas:
· Your bed will be the biggest piece of furniture in your room and the main focal point so, choose a comforter set that you truly like. It should be something that makes you smile or feel happy every time you look at it.
· If you have the room, set up a small table and chair that will be used as a desk. Choose a comfortable chair with padding because you'll be spending a lot of time in it doing school work.
· Put up a few posters or art pieces that go with the theme you selected for your comforter set. These help to brighter up the walls and give your dorm room a warm comfortable feeling.
· Use throw pillows on the bed and in the chairs to add that special touch that brightens up the whole environment.
· Use stand up lamps to provide you with the necessary lighting you need without taking up valuable table space. Many of these are decorative and they can reflect your own personal style.
