How to create a fun, organized college dorm
One of the most exciting things about college is moving into the dorms or your first apartment. New roommate, new space, new responsibilities, new everything!
Creating a home away from home where you can be comfortable after a long day of class and studying is essential. Here are some affordable solutions that will allow you to do more with your small space and help make your college dorm both organized and personalized.
Creative storage for small spaces
With a little ingenuity, you can create a rolling storage unit with KUGGIS storage bins placed on top of an INVALLNING utility cart with wheels. Then you can store everything from study break snacks to toiletries, clothes to bedding.
Underbed storage is essential in a small space. If you have an elevated bed, you can roll your utility cart and bins right underneath it. Out of sight, out of mind! But even if you have a regular bed, we have a variety of underbed storage cases perfect for storing clothes or shoes.
