Deck Out Your Dorm Room

When I moved my son into his dorm for the first time 2 years ago, I was so impressed with all the amazing things the kids brought with them.  From cool storage pieces and textured throw pillows, to decorative artwork and small furniture pieces and plants in chic planters, they had it all.  This was no Bed Bath and Beyond project…Far from it..some of the students told me that they planned their room decor for weeks, even months!!!  They visited various crafts stores, online sites and local merchants to come up with just the right accessories to glamify the otherwise bland dorm rooms.  Even the boys got in on it, but more so to the tune of stripes and primary colors!!  Here are a few of my favorite dorm rooms.  On Friday I will have a shopping guide with some fun items to decorate your student’s dorm room just in time for back to school!!!
