Living in 10 foot by 10 foot concrete box can be pretty gloomy, but with the right decorations, it's possible to make your dorm room feel a little bit more homey!
1. Pillows, pillows, and more pillows
Pillows are a great way to make a room "pop" more, especially if you have a basic plain bed spread and neutral walls. Throw them on a bed or futon to make the room more comfy.
2. A cute rug
A rug can really make a dorm feel less like an empty, cold, room, and more like a cozy space that you actually want to spend time in.
3. Pictures and posters
Pictures of your friends and family can make you feel more at home, and they fill up more of the blank wall space. Posters of your favorite band, movie, or just artsy pics are also a good way to express yourself.
4. Succulents
Succulents are really easy to care for, and almost impossible to kill! They add more life into the room, plus they're not too big and really cute.
5. Wall decor
Dorms often have a lot of blank wall space, and adding a tapestry, banner, or hanging decorations on the wall can really fill up the space and make it feel more homey.
6. Lights
Christmas lights or outdoor lights, can really make a room feel more cozy and add a warm vibe, especially since most dorms do not allow candles.
