“Decorate as quickly as possible so you get to enjoy it for the entire year,” Skinner recommended. Skinner graduated from Brown University in May. “I made the mistake of decorating three months in and with school year being short, you don’t get to enjoy it for very long as it is.”

According to Kyle Azzam, a store manager at Target in Reno, storage is key. “There are so many different kind of containers that staying organized is easy. “You can really buy containers that will also add decorating to your dorm.”

Know the rules. This will help you determine the kind of stuff you can bring in your dorm. Try and find out if there are any specific rules when it comes to refrigerator sizes and the like.

If you will be having a roommate, coordinate with them as soon as you can. You can then decide who brings what and lessen your burden.

I read an interesting article earlier on the Blulabel Bungalow which contained interesting photostyling tips from Annette Joseph. To those that don’t know what photostyling is, it’s the art of styling a room to look its best when photographed.  Those photos you see on home decorating magazines? Well, those are some perfect examples of photostyled rooms.

These tips were pretty interesting but I got to thinking, if I took those photostyling tips and applied them to my own interior design, would it work?  Well, I’m trying those tips out to see if making the rooms photogenic will actually make them comfortable to use.

Here are some of the tips that Annette Joseph shared:

When photographing multiple room, use a color thread throughout each space to make the photo story come together.

Less is More.

There are a lot more tips that she shared and I think that they’re actually pretty useful in real life applications of interior decorating.
