College Dorm Necessities 🍋🫶

What you need for college coming from a current freshman💜🤍

❄️Mini fridge WITH freezer: I use my freezer 24/7, couldn’t live without it!! My roommate has a fridge with no freezer and is ALWAYS using mine!

🧺Laundry backpack: SO easy to just throw on and go wash!! I hang mine on the back of my bedroom door!

🖥️Desk hutch: LIFE SAVER!!! Get measurements of your desk and purchase one! SO much extra storage!

💄Makeup organizer: Keeps everything organized neatly in my bathroom or at my desk!!

🪑Back of chair organizer: I kinda use this one as my “junk drawer” perfectly fits on the back of my dorm chair!

🛏️Backrest pillow: Great for watching shows/chilling in bed, perfect if you like to sit up and read!!

🗓️Wall calendar AND planner: I could NOT live without my calendar or planner… If I didn’t have them I would probably forget about due dates 24/7.

🧊Pebble ice maker: Listen… I know it’s not NEEDED but my dorm doesn’t have an ice machine and my dining hall isn’t always open. I tried using ice trays in my freezer and it was SO tiring. If you’re gonna get an ice maker might as well have the good ice!

🪟Black out curtains: MY OH MY. As a person who suffers from chronic migraines there are a LIFESAVER! Get a good tension rod and hang those babies up!

🪞BONUS (not pictured): A full length mirror… I need no further explanation!

As a college freshman, having the right dorm essentials can greatly enhance your academic and social life. Items like a mini fridge with a freezer are crucial not only for storing snacks and drinks but also for meal prep. A laundry backpack simplifies trips to the laundromat, while a desk hutch maximizes study space, keeping your area clutter-free. Makeup organizers are perfect for keeping your beauty items in check, ensuring you can quickly find what you need during busy mornings. Additionally, wall calendars and planners help you stay on top of assignments, crucial for maintaining good grades. If you struggle with sleep due to light, blackout curtains can be a game changer for a good night’s rest. A pebble ice maker, while not strictly necessary, can enhance your drink experience during warm days. Every piece of furniture and accessory contributes to creating a cozy, efficient living space that supports your college journey. Don’t forget the bonus of having a full-length mirror for your outfits, ensuring you step out feeling confident each day!
