Dorm Room Storage Ideas

It’s time to go back to college, which means it’s time to decorate and organize your dorm room! Deciding what to do with your dorm is exciting, but it’s sometimes hard to decide what exactly you want to do with it and where you can store all of your items. We’ve gathered some of our favorite dorm room storage and design ideas to share with you for some inspiration!

Boho Style Dorm Room

Boho Bedroom

Boho is in. Don’t be afraid to mix prints and patterns together to achieve this popular style. Hang up a tapestry to give the plain walls some life. You can also use plastic bins to store shoes and other bulky or unsightly items beneath the bed.

Vintage Suitcase Style Dorm Room

Underbed Space Neatly Utilized

Utilize Underbed Space

Dorm rooms are typically small and can sometimes feel cramped, but not if you know how to work it! Set the bed up high so that the space underneath can be utilized for a study area. Even a small space can have a big purpose.

Pop-Art Style Dorm Room

Pop-of-Color

Bright colors help to liven up a drab dorm room. This dorm room uses a pop of color throughout the room. They also installed shelves going up the wall above the desk to add storage. This is a great place to store text books while not in use.
