Decorate The Dorm!

Whether you're a freshman looking to bring a little bit of home to your dorm/residence or a senior wanting to spruce up the frat house, we are sure these items will be a big hit!


Jumbo White Dry Erase Board by FatheadKeep Track of Your Life

Dry Erase Board/Whiteboard
Wait, that's due today?!
This one is IMPORTANT.  Believe us, if you don't have something staring back at your face every day to remind you of what's going on you are going to miss more than a few deadlines.





Our suggested whiteboard categories:
  • One for each class (with lecture times, lab times, due dates, exam dates and prof hours/contact info)
  • One for fitness & gym reminders
  • One for to do list & shopping list
  • One for important dates (birthdays, spring break, exam time, christmas holidays
  • One blank so people can leave you messages.
  • Don't forget to get the eraser and special markers, too!



Storage
Portable Drawers
Space, the Final Frontier
When you're in college, the only thing less abundant than sleep is SPACE, which is why we love these portable drawers.  They are lightweight and on wheels, making it easy to transport them wherever you need.  They're clear, meaning you can spot that missing cell phone charger from across the room.  And the flat space on top can double as a table.  And they're currently on sale for more than 50% off, too!

Canadians can find them here instead.



Woody - Fathead Jr.Be Better Than Andy
Woody Wall Decal
There's a Snake In My Boot!  
You don't have to recreate the tearjerker at the end of Toy Story 3.  You can take your childhood pal with you for 30 bucks!  Believe us, it's going to be a better conversation starter than if you are the 600th person with a Scarface poster on their wall!






Embrace Your Inner Nerd
Yoda? & Jedi? Knights Mural

Get Laid, You Will
Everyone knows that being a nerd is SO in right now.  The days of hiding your nerdiness from that cute guy down the hall or that hot girl in your Chem lab.  For less than what a good night out at the bar would cost you, you can be the only person cool enough to actually embrace who you are.  Confidence is sexy!  Nerds are sexy! Yoda is sexy!








Naptime Will Be Making A Comeback
Bed In A Bag
This is Where the Magic Happens
If you're in a dorm, chances are you won't be able to bring your own bed with you.  What you can bring with you, though, is a nice set of sheets to make your dorm feel more like home.

When you've got a cutie back in your room, this plush white bed in a bag is going to set you apart from every other slobby freshman room they've seen… and will help you close the deal.




Never Feel Alone Again
How I Met Your Mother Barney Stinson StandeeStandee
BA-Wait For It-ZINGA
The Big Bang Theory Sheldon StandeeYour room will be the envy of everyone in the building with one of these conversation starters standing watch in the corner.  Whether you want a life-size cardboard cutout of Barney Stinson to keep you following the bro code every day, or a life-size cardboard cutout of Dr. Sheldon Cooper silently judging all your choices from the corner, you can't go wrong with either.

We defy you not to have the most popular dorm room on campus with one of these studs as your roommate.





This turned out to be so much fun - and everyone in the office had so many suggestions - that we've decided to turn this into a multi-part article.  Please head on over to Part 2 to read the rest!

Until then, head on over to Twitter to ask us any questions about college life or offer suggestions for others.




Hey guys so the fact is in order to get those two snazzy Amazon.com and Amazon.ca images in this post we signed up for their affiliate program.  So that means if you buy the product from Amazon through clicking our link, they will give us a tiny commission.  It's the only way for us to legally have images of their products without breaking Google's copyright rules.  
Just wanted to be up front about it. :)
