Create an Accent Wall 

Wall paint may not be allowed in your dorm but you can make a removable fabric wallpaper. It is not an easy task but when properly done, it adds color and personality inside your room. This can be great in lightly textured or smooth walls. 

The tapestry can be an alternative to put on your walls without damage on the surface. It is cheap and can be used along with your decorating clips. Choose from various styles, materials, and colors to suit your living needs. 

 Aesthetics with Some Fairy Lights

Bring out those fairy lights even when it is yet the festive season. Lights help enhance the aesthetic appeal of your room giving it a distinct edge. They liven up your bare-walled living area.

There are many options for you to do the work. Try draping the lights over a bookshelf, hang them from the ceiling, or over a mirror. Make sure to secure them with thumbtacks or plastic adhesive tabs so as not to ruin the wall. 

Add Zest to Your Desk

Incorporate nature inside your room, especially in your desk, with some indoor plants. Succulents or money plants are good choices. Bring light to your studies as you do homework with lanterns. Stay minimal on your decoration to avoid clutter on your desk. Remain organized with a pen pot, paper rack, and in-tray.

 Use Storage Boxes and Separators 

Utilize storage solutions with drawer separators and/or boxes especially if there is limited space in your room. These storages are best inside or at the top of your wardrobe or wherever available space. They are also fit under the bed for easy access when necessary.

Set-Up a Memo Board

Install a multifunctional memo board. Pin your notes, plans, assignment, and other activities on the board to keep you posted. You can display some photos here too.  

A whiteboard calendar is not just a decorative idea but an educational tool as well. The calendar will be your guide so no schedule and appointments will be missed. This will be very helpful if you have struggled in keeping up with your “To-Dos” list.
