Why Bother Decorating a Dorm Room?

Some students wonder if it’s worth decorating a dorm room that is only home temporarily. Here are some top reasons to personalize the space:

Creates a Comfortable Environment

Bringing familiar items from home and adding personal touches helps a dorm room feel warmer, homier, and more inspiring. This can help students feel happier and relaxed in a space that doubles as a bedroom and study area.

Reflects Personality

Dorm room decor allows students to express their personal styles, hobbies, and interests through their choice of bedding, wall art, accessories, and more. This can be a fun way to show off what makes you unique.

Fosters School Spirit

Incorporating school colors and accessories promoting your college builds school spirit and pride. It also helps form connections with fellow students stopping by your room.

Best Practices for Dorm Room Decorating

Follow these tips for creating a functional, comfortable dorm room you’ll be happy to call home for a school year:

Coordinate with Roommate

Communicate regularly with your roommate to agree on a decor theme and budget, as you’ll be sharing the space. Compromise is essential.

Review Dorm Rules

Get familiar with your dorm’s policies around decor items and furniture to avoid violations. Things like candles, large furniture, or many electronics may be banned.

Measure Carefully

Dorm rooms are snug, so measure the room and any furniture or accessories you plan to bring to ensure everything fits comfortably.

Multifunctional Pieces

Opt for furniture and accessories that serve multiple purposes, like storage beds, organizer shelves, and chair/desk combos. This saves space.

Easy to Assemble + Disassemble

Furniture that is easy to put together and take apart without tools is ideal for frequent dorm room turnover. This also makes moving at year-end simpler.

Tips for Decorating Your Dorm Room

Use these handy tips and tricks to fully decorate your dorm room in style on a student budget:

Choose Multipurpose Furniture

Opt for furniture like storage ottomans, floor cushions, and futons that offer seating and extra storage. Dorm-friendly stacking crates and cubbies also add storage.

Incorporate Greenery

Plants infuse freshness and life into dorm rooms. Opt for low-maintenance varieties like succulents, snake plants, pothos ivy, and philodendrons.

Use Fabric to Define Spaces

Define spaces and add comfort with curtains, rag rugs, tapestries, and textiles. Hang lightweight curtains around beds to create private spaces within shared rooms.

Stick to Necessities

When space is tight, carefully curate must-have items only. Skip non-essentials and focus on key furniture, versatile textiles, wall art, lighting, storage, and plants.

Display Photos + Keepsakes

Make your dorm feel more personal with photos, postcards, ticket stubs, and other small sentimental items displayed on a bulletin board, wall, or shelf.

Add Pops of Color

Bright accent colors enliven neutral dorm rooms. Add vibrancy with wall art, patterned bedding and pillows, colorful storage bins, fun desk accessories, and area rugs.

Incorporate Soft Furnishings

Faux fur pillows, cozy throws, soft rugs, gauzy curtains, and upholstered headboards make dorms extra comfy. These pieces also absorb sound.

Use Wall Space Creatively

Utilize vertical space with wall-mounted desk hutches, floating shelves, memo boards, tall storage lockers, and wall art. This clears floor space.

Light It Up

Well-lit dorms feel open rather than cramped. Use natural light effectively, install dimmable overhead fixtures, and incorporate task lighting and string lights.

Add Your Own Touch!

Make DIY wall art, patterned headboards, decorative pillows, and other accessories to reflect your style. Personalize with color, prints, textures, quotes, and photos.

Dorm Decorating FAQs

For additional guidance on decorating dorm spaces, see answers to these frequently asked questions:

What essentials should I pack for dorm living?

Pack bedding, bath items, school/office supplies, cleaning tools, laundry items, electronics, decor items, dishware, snacks, medications, and clothing suitable for the climate.

What items are typically banned from dorm rooms?

Candles, incense, halogen lamps, open coil appliances, large furniture over a certain size, non-university mattresses, illegal substances, weapons, pets, alcohol (if under 21), and more may be banned. Check policies.

How can I decorate walls without damaging them?

Use only non-damaging methods like painter’s tape, command hooks, over-the-door hangers, and magnetic hooks. Do not use nails, screws, permanent adhesives, or tape that removes paint.

Where can I buy affordable dorm room decor and furniture?

Check thrift stores, discount home goods stores, yard sales, Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, IKEA, Target, Walmart, Amazon, and college campus “yard sale” Facebook groups for deals.

What size bedding and rugs should I get?

Most dorm mattresses are 36”x80” or 80”x60”. Check your exact size. Area rugs in standard sizes like 3’x5’ or 4’x6’ typically work well. Scale down bedding and decor for small, shared dorm rooms.
