At the end of a long day, it might sound nice to come home to a neutral palette in your dorm. I hear you, but, you can achieve the neutral palette in other ways besides your bedding. Your bed will be a place where you eat (food stains), drink (spills), study (highlighter/marker/pen marks), etc. It needs to be the workhorse of the room that can withstand the elements…like a 3am pizza party for 8. Today, we are tackling the best colorful dorm bedding from IKEA.
In college, I LOVED picking out my bedding. When I lived in my sorority house (Kappa Kappa Gamma, holla!), I chose a bright magenta comforter with colorful pink and blue sheets and pillowcases. It was like a ray of sunshine and I loved it.
Not only was it comfy, but it provided everything I needed. I watched TV, ate, studied, drank coffee and tea, read, etc all in my bed. It was the only place in the house where no one else was and I needed it to be my sanctuary. You’ll probably feel the same way. Though your personal space will probably be small, you will value it so much.
In a dorm, there’s not much you can control in terms of interior design, so you’ve got to make the choices you do have count extra. Your bed is the focal point of your room, so why not let it showcase that awesome personality of yours? Get some colorful dorm bedding and add some vibrancy to your space!

Bed skirt
This last one is technically not bedding, but a bed skirt. Why would a bed skirt matter? It adds that extra feeling of comfort. If you are in a dorm, your bed will be this generic wooden or metal monstrosity, so giving yourself an extra textile will help with the coziness of the room.
What do you think of these colorful dorm bedding options? I love that IKEA has such vibrant prints and patterns. IKEA has some really really great options to make your dorm look and feel the best it can.
