Sep. 6th, 2002 06:40 pmok - so about 2 weeks ago i move into a dorm room..
my roommate is visiting family for the weekend so i've decided to take this opportunity to decorate. though i've dreamed for years and years about how i would decorate my first place... there's alot of things standing in my way that make decorating this space difficult:
- i have brick walls, which prevents me from hanging anything on them.
- we're not allowed to put any fabric on the walls
- i'm sharing the room with someone else.. so i can only design my side of the room.. but have to keep it fairly under the edge so it dosent totally clash with her stuff.
- i'm a poor college kid!!!
- there's no overhead lighting.. and the room in general is crazy dark..
those are just a few of the problems i can think of right now. if anyone has any ideas let me know! also - does anyone know of any product that's really strong sticky and will hold stuff onto the brick walls for the whole year - but then come off when i leave?
decorating dorm rooms is a pain in the ass.. but i want it to feel more like home here
thanks!
