Small Bedroom Decorating Ideas For College Student.  College Student's Bedroom Decorating Ideas. College students tend to spend a large portion of time in their bedrooms studying and relaxing from all their studying, so a college student's bedroom should be functional and yet comfortable. Decorating ideas should focus on creating an inviting atmosphere that will also effectively utilize the often limited space, as well as be fairly easy to maintain.

When selecting furniture to decorate a college student's bedroom, it is best to choose pieces that have built-in storage to help eliminate distracting and unattractive clutter. Consider beds with drawers underneath and shelves in the headboard, or bunk-beds with dressers or desks. Ottomans that double as storage cubes, closet organizers and seating that can fold, like butterfly chairs, are also good options to maximize space.

Avoid darker colors in small spaces, but also consider how easy or difficult it will be to keep certain lighter colored items clean. Blues, greens and purples are all considered to be very calming colors that help to create a relaxed atmosphere. Usually dormitory rooms or rented apartments cannot be painted, so bring color in with comforters, pillows and rugs.

Small decorative items can help a college student's bedroom seem more "homey," but take into consideration the maintenance and placement of items to minimize clutter and make cleaning easy. Small houseplants can bring life into the room, but it is usually best to avoid knickknacks in general. Wall decor can be functional with decorative corkboards, mirrors or calendars.

While a very intensive theme may not be realistic in most college student's bedrooms, you can incorporate bits of the student's personality and favorite things into his bedroom to create a kind of personalized theme. Bringing one or two favorite items from home can also help to alleviate homesickness for college students who are attending school far from home or who are moving out for the first time.
