It’s that time of year again, when thousands of college students are back to school. Whether a dorm room is shared by a single roommate or many, there are ways to make one’s dorm room unique and special without breaking the bank.
Here are some easy DIY ideas, guaranteed to glam up any dorm decor.
Create a collage
Many college students arrive wanting and needing a sense of “home.” One creative idea is to create a large collage with treasured photographs.
Instructions:
Purchase a large picture frame. You can choose to hang one large frame or several in a series.
Choose the photographs you wish to display.
Group the photos in a creative way. One option is to place on a colorful background, made using construction paper, wallpaper or gift wrap. Glue photographs on background.

Create a wall mural
Even though it may be someone else’s dorm room next year, there is nothing wrong with infusing a little bit of personality of your own while the room is yours. While painting is an affordable and easy way to add temporary color and personality (if allowed), removable wall stickers are one of the hottest trends in wall decor right now. From basic designs to the elaborate, they can truly be the design highlight of any dorm room.
