Coordinate with your Room mate.
Stylish Dorm Decorating
Yea! The room mate selections are in! Whether you are in with your BFF or going”potluck” or random, you’d be wise to consider the 4 c’s.
The 4 c’s
Communicate- First and foremost, get to know each other, your likes/dislikes. Discuss budgets.
Room arrangement. Sides of the room, upper/lower bunk etc… Remember to be open to new
Ideas and input.
Collaborate- give and take. Establish who is bring what items and try to keep bigger ticket items evenly distributed.
Decide what is needed ie refrigerator,tv,cable ,rugs, furniture.
Colorize- try to blend your tastes but have your own style. Maybe invert or reverse the colors for a Jack and Jill look.
Or both use the same main colors and have separate accents in pillows/bulletin boards etc.Have fun!
Customize- add things that inspire you! Put your own stamp on the room. Let creativity rule! Think of inexpensive ways to decorate your wall.
Monogrammed vinyl wall art to coordinate with your colors. Paint lightweight canvases to add larger color pop! Make sure you have spots for all those photos to re-connect with family and friends vinyl wall frames link.
Opps.. another c…
- Cleanliness!
… have a scheduled clean/organize time built into your busy life! Ok… guilty.. the Mom in me comes out!
Cleaning Bucket. Fill up a darling bucket with Clorox wipes, air freshners, comet, Windex etc…
After a recent trip to my daughter’s dorm room, I realize the need for a cleaning products bucket.I know this isn’t the fun thing to spend your limited budgeted funds, however, it is a necessity!
Maybe this will inspire the domestic goddess within!
Have fun girls!
