Dorm Essentials!!
1. If you are bunking your bed up, GET THIS bedside tray. This was incredibly useful because nothing fell off my bed that I needed before going to sleep. Everyone who saw this tray always asked me where they could get one too!
2. The desk organizer is definetly not a need but I loved it so much when it came to keeping my things organized and easy to access. It's super useful for holding college books, makeup, supplies, and so much more! I also kept the mirror on the next slide inside the large gap on the left side and it fit PERFECTLY!
3. I highly recommend this mirror because it has three brightness settings and fully livens up the room! It's the perfect size as it fits in the desk organizer in the previous slide and it has a very small width! It can also flip around so if you want to work on homework on your desk you don't have to stare at your face haha. It makes the desk easy to work with because it can either be used to do makeup in the morning or do homework for school!
4. The hanging door compartments are super nice! If you need extra storage I definetly suggest this especially to store things you don't want to forget before leaving the room! I always kept my winter hats and gloves in there so I wouldn't forget them before leaving during the winter season!
5. This caddy is so helpful for storing snacks, toiletries, and anything extra you need to store!!!! Always keep paper plates, bowls, cups, and utensils in the room as well!
6. This keurig I honestly didn't use as much because my dining hall served coffee every morning and I'm addicted to Lotus's. However, I LOVED making hot cocoa with it!!
7. This laundry bag is seriously a MUST. It depends on where your laundry room is but typically it's like a quadrillion floors down from where your room is so this backpack is a lifesaver. I've seen so many people struggling to hold their laundry baskets around the hall while I'm just carrying my laundry on my back like it's nothing!!! ALSO if you live close to home and bring your laundry back to do there, this bag is even more important for you!!!
8. This lamp is a miracle I love it so much it's so freaking bright with 3 settings!!! During my first semester I was an architecture student and this lamp was literally my savior.
9. If your campus has a lot of trees get a hammock!!! It's so peaceful especially when you're stressed about finals and you just need a break! I love to just listen to music and read a book and feel the breeze and sun while laying in it! :)
When setting up your college dorm, having the right essentials can make a world of difference. Not only do these products help with organization, but they also enhance your overall living experience. Start with a bedside tray to keep your belongings easily accessible—perfect for those late-night study sessions or early morning alarms. A desk organizer can help you manage textbooks, personal items, and other essentials, ensuring everything has a designated space. Check out popular choices like the SPACEKEEPER Bedside Shelf and Tangkula Desktop Bookshelf. When it comes to getting ready in the morning, a quality mirror with adjustable lighting, such as the FENNIO LED mirror, is essential for makeup application and thoughtful grooming. Finding clever storage solutions is key; a versatile hanging door organizer can keep your space tidy while holding seasonal items. Additionally, convenience items like a laundry backpack make trips to communal laundries much easier—no need to juggle cumbersome baskets! Don't forget about a good desk lamp; it can significantly improve your workspace, especially for those late-night study sessions. Consider the Sailstar Desk Lamp, known for its adjustable brightness settings. Lastly, a camping hammock can provide a perfect stress-relief spot between classes or during exams. With tranquil spaces available on many campuses, it’s great to unwind with a good book or some music. Embracing these essentials will create a comfortable and functional living space that feels like home while you navigate college life.
does the bed shelf work or is it flimsy and trash?
