With college move-ins right around the corner, here are my top ten dorm room must haves!

10. Bath mats

These will make your life so much easier! If you have a shower that overflows, it will keep the floors dryer. Mats are super cheap and easy to replace if they stain!

9. Bedding

This is a must! Bring something that not only expresses yourself, but it will keep you warm and comfy!

8. Shower Caddy

Caddies are super helpful if you are in a community bathroom. Again, a really cheap item to relive stress.

7. Additional Lighting

While overhead lights are great, additional lighting like lamps are super helpful. If your room mate likes little lighting, this will keep both of you happy.

6. Extra Chairs

Trust me from experience, desk chairs are uncomfortable. Buy yourself a few other chairs, like bean bags or moon chairs. They are great for movie watching too!

5. Hangers

Even if they don't mean to, your room mate will use your hangers. Grab a few extras! Maybe color coordinate as well!

4. Microwave

A chef's best friend in college. If you get tired of cafeteria food, make sure you have access to a microwave. Make sure it is the appropriate power level as well!

3. Mini Fridge

Another hugely important kitchen item. Coordinate with your roommate on who will bring the fridge and who will bring the microwave!

2. A TV

This is more of an optional item, but I HIGHLY recommend it! TVs are a great way to bring new friends to your room.

1. Photos

Decorate your space with photos! They are great mementos of home and the amazing memories you will make this semester!

Hope you enjoyed my list! This semester will be awesome!
