DormSmart.com: Back To School Dorm Decor 101 - Make Your Grades In Style!

    BENTONVILLE, AR, September 04, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Heading back to school and the campus dorms this fall? Make your grades in style!

DormSmart.com, an online retailer with more than 7000 budget friendly dorm room essentials and accessories, announces a new crash course for dorm dwellers, Dorm Decor 101. To rock out their dorm room decor this semester and pass this class with style, students must make every grade!

A. Apartment Size / Dorm Size Appliances - When sharing a space the size of your bedroom or smaller with a roommate it is important to buy appliances that fit the scale of your new dorm digs. Leave mom's 24-cup coffeemaker at home! Stick to smaller scale university housing approved appliances.

B. Bountiful Bedding - After a long day of classes, study groups, games, and parties, you need a comfortable place to crash. Don't go cheap when it comes to a good night's sleep. Invest in quality dorm bedding. Remember to buy extra pillows because your dorm bed will double as seating during the day.

C. Creative Storage - To organize a small dorm room with style, use decorative storage solutions like collapsible storage bins and dorm trunks. It's important to invest in a dorm trunk that can take a beating over the years. "A dorm trunk should provide storage, protect a student's valuables, and serve as extra seating," says Christi Leslie, Founder of DormSmart.com.

D. Dorm Friendly Wall Decor - Forget hanging those old school tapestries. Comply with your university housing regulations in style by using removable peel and stick wall decals and lightweight memo boards to cover your drab dorm walls.

F. Fashionable Flooring - Rugs create an anchor for your dorm room decor. They provide a decorative and comfortable barrier between you and those cold hard floors. Dorm rugs come in a wide variety of themes, sizes and colors to fit any style.
