Get A Cheap Headboard

Do not spend thousands on a headboard.

I found this cheap one on Amazon for $110 with thousands of 5-star reviews saying how much they love it!

A Reliable Comforter

If you lived in the dorm rooms last year, you are going to need a new comforter.

This one on Amazon is currently 40% off and has over 100,000 reviews. You can buy it in any color and have it shipped straight to your apartment.

Hanging Wall Storage

I recently visited my friend in college and she had these hanging shelves on her wall.

It looked so good that I knew I had to include it in this post. She had pictures of her family on it and even some green plants to bring out the colors.

I listed the one that looks like hers below.

Wall Decor

It’s a college apartment so you need to add some cute colors and some cute wall decor.

I linked my two favorites that are a must-have in any college apartment.

Easy Assemble Bed frame

I LOVE this bed frame. Amazon ships it straight to your house and as long as you follow the directions, it’s super easy to set up.

Throw Pillows

The best way to transform your bedroom is to add throw pillows. The ones above are from Target but I found ones that look exactly like them on Amazon if you prefer to ship them straight to your door.

Throw Blanket

Having a blanket on your bed or in your bedroom is perfect for sleepovers. Each person can have their own blanket or if someone prefers to sleep cold, they can lay on top of the comforter.

Makeup / Desk

You are going to have more room in your apartment then in your dorm so GET A DESK or make-up vanity.

Having a place to do all of your homework besides the library or on the bed, is so amazing. You will get motivated and be able to see all of your work that you need to have done.

Mirrors

Do I even need to explain why your bedroom needs a mirror?

They make your bedroom look more open and your friends will love being able to take pictures in front of it.

Dresser

You are going to need a dresser in your bedroom.

Depending on the amount of space in your apartment you’re going to need a specific type of dresser. The first one below is best if you have a lot of floor space but the second one is great for taking up wall space.

Nightstands

I have a nightstand from Good Will (which is great for finding second-hand pieces) for my apartment. However, if you are trying to find all of your pieces from Amazon, I listed 2 very good ones that are budget friendly below.
