Last fall, Grace's dorm went viral and appeared in Southern Living, HGTV and Seventeen Magazine. While we're planning for "My First Apartment" this year, I thought I'd recap a few dorm must-haves if you'red college bound this year. (All of these products are linked in the dorm highlight.) ✨ Style specifically for dorm furniture. Many of the accents here are from Room422, who designs makes bedding for dorm rooms. The longer bed skirt, stick on headboard, tasseled throw and larger pillows for studying were essential in creating this polished space. ✨ IKEA's Alex drawer units are $159 worth of storage Heaven in a dorm room. Gender neutral, these smaller towers can hold everything from undies to leggings to school supplies. ✨ Create a battery operated chandelier with a remote control, puck light and pendant. We simply twisted in a screw hook to the ceiling and hung. You can also do this with a command hook. ✨ Make a space feel like HOME with a small rug and greenery. Dorm carpet is gross. Add color and a layer of softened with a flat weave rug. ✨ Shop small and purchase prints from an artist, for under $10, on Etsy and then send those to Smallwood Homes to be framed. Alternatively, find a collection of matching prints from HomeGoods and hang in a gallery. Stay tuned for more college dorm ideas and first apartment style coming soon! http://liketk.it/3gERR liketkit @liketoknow.it
