COCA COLA BEDDING

Not only did I want to show you this girl's Coca Cola bedding set, but I wanted to tell you about the brainstorm of decorating ideas that I had when I read about how she decorated her dorm room in a Coca Cola theme. And yes, she also tells us why she chose this style of decor.

She left home taking this comforter set with her to college and after she was there, she decided that she wanted a mini-fridge to keep her soft drinks cold. Well, it would seem that she hit the jackpot and found the perfect compact refrigerator to complement her decor.

She started out complaining that she didn't want a boring black or white personal mini-fridge like the ones she found at her local discount store. She wanted something with more personality and a little more cool factor than just what was inside the appliance. As luck would have it she found the perfect little mini-refrigerator to go with her Coca Cola bedding!

Can you join me here for a great big AHA moment? Why should other girls settle for boring appliances in their dorm rooms when they can cover them with contact paper, decals or even wallpaper? I'm always searching for new and interesting dorm room decorating ideas and I believe that I will be putting this one to work very soon! Can you picture a zebra print mini-fridge or one covered in polka dots in colors to match the teen girls bedding? Decorating what is basically a square block of metal would be so easy to do PLUS it would be cheap to do and it would look so cool!

GIRLS DORM BEDDING IDEAS

GO HERE TO SEE MORE!


Ok, college kicks off in my area early next week and I'm still looking for girls dorm bedding ideas for two girls' rooms. YIKES! The good news is that they are not divas who are pitching ego-maniacal hissy fits. They just want their dorm rooms to look cool and are willing to wait for the perfect bedding set.

Leave it to me to save the most challenging design project until the last minute. And in case you're wondering why I'm here typing away on my decorating blog rather than in the mall or online looking for comforter sets for these girls I want to tell you that I have a really good excuse.

It's hot and I just don't feel like it right now. Yeah, that might sound lame to you but the heat index here is over 116 and it has left me exhausted. That being said, I saw a cute example of dorm room decor for sorority girls that you might be interested in so take a look and let me know what you think while I'm cooling off and trying to come up with some girls dorm bedding ideas before time runs out on me.

HOW TO CHOOSE COLLEGE DORM BEDDING

The summer has flown by with days at the beach a memory, how to choose college dorm bedding is what's on most teen girls' minds these days. With the exodus for college in full swing, for the next few weeks I’ll be up to my eye teeth in dorm room decorating projects.


Actually, after thinking about it just a minute I realize that I've been taking little else in the way of calls requesting decorating consultation since mid-summer and longer. You might be amazed to learn that some girls start bouncing around ideas for decorating dorm rooms right after they returned from spring break vacation. I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised at their enthusiasm since this is a teen girl’s first bedroom in her life as an adult and having the perfect set of girls college dorm bedding is very, very important.

As excited as the girls are about getting their rooms decorated, after spending several weeks shopping online and browsing in stores for looking for twin bedding, extra long (xl) twin sheet sets, pillows, and room accessories, I have a tip to share with you that will save you some time AND money thus the title of this post, How to choose college dorm bedding...get it?

Before you rush out to buy your dorm bedding and stuff you should consult with your roommate to see what color and style her comforter set is. It would be a raging disaster if you bought bedding that clashes like crazy with hers. Find out what color your roommate's things are and do your very best to be accommodating if she has already jumped the gun and made her purchase. MAYBE, just maybe you will get lucky and learn that she was waiting to find out what color your bedding set might be and you will get to pick first!
