If you’re anything like me and you absolutely love the Christmas season, one of the best parts about this time of year is the beautiful decorations that people often put up.
My mother loves Christmas and she transforms our house into a true winter wonderland during the holidays (which is an amazing feat considering we live in Florida). My first year in college I decided not to decorate my dorm for Christmas, but since then, I realized that it is so worth it to take the time to decorate my space for the holiday season.
Here are a few reasons why taking the time to decorate your college dorm room for Christmas will be worth it!
1. Christmas decorations are almost always pretty, even if they’re from the dollar store!
You don’t have to break the bank to decorate your dorm for Christmas & nearly all Christmas decorations are pretty! The colors for this holiday season are bright and beautiful.
2. The different colors and lights will bring a positivity to your dorm that wasn’t there before.
Everyone decorates their personal space how they want it to look & you can do that for Christmas, too! Putting a festive twist on the decor that you already have will brighten up space and create positive vibes.
3. It is a great way to help distract from the stress of finals.
Walking into a room that is full of Christmas cheer can help remind you that once these stressful last weeks are over you get to go home & enjoy a break! A small reminder of home can go a long way after a sleepless night in the library.
These may seem like simple reasons for something that will undoubtedly take a little time and effort but the benefit of doing small things that you enjoy is so worth it. This year, take a little extra time to make your living space feel more festive and watch your attitude improve.
