Ribbon of Lights
Hanging some festive lights around the window can spruce up a drab, dark dorm room. Some colorful ribbons give an extra spark! Just take a strand of Christmas lights and get some cheap ribbon from the craft store (how much you need will depend on the length of your light strand.) Cut the ribbon in 5-inch strips and tie around the strand of lights. The best way to hang them is probably to use command clips.
Shirt Quilt
As college students, we have collected a surplus of T-shirts that we never wear, but still can’t bear to part with. So cut them into squares and quilt them together to make a patchwork of memories.
Fabric Frame
Cover an old, ugly frame with fabric to give it new life! Cut fabric into strips 2 inches wide. Cover a section of the frame in Modge Podge and wrap a strip of fabric around it. Once the whole frame is covered, you can put a layer of Modge Podge on top to give it a glossy look (or sparkly if you get sparkle Modge Podge!).
Dry Erase Picture Frame
This is SO much cuter than a regular white dry erase board. All you need is a picture frame and some fun decorative paper. Just place the paper in the frame as if it was a picture and you can write on the glass with a dry erase marker!
