<p>Hey, this has probably been done before, but I just wanted to make a new thread to get advice from people about how to decorate your dorm room.</p>
<p>One thing I was thinking about is whether or not I should but pictures or post cards on my wall? If I put up pictures they would just be FB pics, so they probably wouldn't look as cool as an actual photograph. On the other hand, I'm thinking of starting to collect post cards, so maybe that would be a better idea. What do you think?</p>
<p>What other suggestions would you give someone starting to think about their dorm room?</p>
<p>Both seem like good ideas to me. I really like the postcard idea but mostly because I haven’t ever seen that in a dorm. You could easily do both if you wanted.</p>
<p>I think a big thing to remember about decorating in a dorm is that you don’t want to bring too much stuff. It sucks packing and unpacking that stuff. Another thing might be to bring decorative lights. I know I wasn’t able to just use the overhead light all the time so having a few different lights was nice. Patio lights tend to work well to hand around a lofted bed.</p>
<p>I like the idea of postcards. </p>
<p>I generally use wall vinyls/decals. As it gives the room a custom feel, a lot of people think I painted the wall. They are removable, of course.</p>
