1. Some people match their dorm décor with their roommate…

…which leads to a beautifully put together, clean, and cute-looking room.

2. Or you can just color coordinate with your roommate.

This makes your room a bit more personalized because you don’t have to have the exact same colors on both beds, but the style of everything still matches.

This gives you the ability to arrange your room the way you want.

7. Buy or build a bedside table to put between the beds that has a compartment for your refrigerator and microwave.

This saves some space because it is like a two-in-one bedside table.  Also, it is great for midnight snacks because you won’t have to go very far!

4. Use your desk as your vanity!

Instead of cluttering the counter space around the sink, convert your desk into a vanity.  This will also prevent fighting over the bathroom mirror with your roommate if you’re in a contemporary room.  If you are staying in a traditional dorm, it means you can stay in your room to do your makeup and have your own space for it.

15. Put pictures on the walls to remember all the memories you have made.
