I lived in a dorm last year as a freshman, and I quickly realized I had bought things I would never use. Because this is a common problem for freshmen, I've created a list of my absolute essentials to help you all out! I'd like to thank Crane & Canopy for collaborating with me on this post. Connect with them on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram to see more of this blog series! BEDROOM The easiest way to buy dorm bedding is in a set. In most cases, your bed will be size Twin XL. Because that size isn't as common as other sizes, I recommend finding a website like Crane & Canopy to pick out bedding. They put together sets that include duvet covers, shams, sheets, comforters, bed skirts and throw pillows. In particular, I like the simple set pictured above. White bedding can give your dorm room a modern, clean feeling. It can also give more room to work with decorative pillows and throws.

LAUNDRY The only important factor to consider when buying a laundry hamper for your dorm is whether or not it's easy to carry. I lived on the third floor of my residence hall, and when the elevator broke, I had to carry my laundry up and down the stairs. Whatever you do, be sure to buy a lightweight laundry hamper!
