How to be festive as a college student?

Hi y’all! I am a college student who is currently living in an apartment. While I have storage this year, I know some don’t, and having this amount of storage space is not always guaranteed! I’ve learned in my first couple years at college that decorating for holidays can really make the space feel like home, but how do you account for limited space without compromising comfort?

Drop your top tips for decorating with limited space for college students below! Budget friendly options encouraged…

I love using season/holiday related pillows! they can be stored under your bed or left at home when it's not the season, but are a super cute way to decorate for the holidays! TJ Maxx usually has some cute ones

I usually just buy seasonal everyday items. Mugs plates and more. So it’s not considered clutter.
