How to Make Your College Apartment Comfortable & Cozy

How to Make Your College Apartment Comfortable & Cozy

April 17, 2022 Posted by Rachel Grier Uncategorized

Your transition from your home to off-campus housing can be overwhelming. You’re used to your privacy and all the comforts you’ve grown to know and enjoy. This can make your relocation to a student residence a little bit scary.

But the good news is that you don’t have to give up any comforts when you choose the right apartments for rent. Peterborough students have Seven Court, which makes it super easy to move in and adjust with other residents. Our apartments have a homey atmosphere, and we offer many amenities on site.

That said, it is always good to use your ideas to make your college apartment as comfortable and cozy as possible. Here are some tips on how to make your college apartment feel more like a home.

Create a Cozy Study Area

Students who live in dorms don’t typically have much space to call their own. But an off-campus apartment offers you more freedom to make the most of your limited space.

A cozy study area in your apartment can give it a more inviting vibe. Your new study space doesn’t have to be fancy or expensive, so long as it maximizes your reading efficiency.

It can be as simple as a small bookshelf and lamp, or it can be a more elaborate set-up with a desk, chair, and computer. After all, the more comfortable you are while reading, the more likely you are to focus on your coursework and succeed.

Decorate With Pictures

Pictures of your family, friends, people who inspire you, and even your pet can give your student apartment a homey touch. And they will bring a smile to your face by reminding you of the good times spent together. The pictures will also make your place look more colourful and interesting.

Want more ideas to decorate your apartment with pictures? Head over to Pinterest, and you’ll find plenty of inspiration in minutes.

Add Indoor Plants

Adding plants to your college apartment will keep the place looking fresh, green, and clean. They look aesthetically pleasing and can even offer you some relief from the heat and humidity of summertime.

You can choose many different indoor plants for your apartment, depending on what mood you’re going for or what you need in your space. For example, a succulent is perfect for a little bit of style in your apartment without taking up much room. Meanwhile, ferns provide a nice contrast with their spiky leaves and tall stems.

Accessorize Your Bedroom

As a student, you need a place to unwind and relax after a tiring day at college or university. The best thing is that you can make your bedroom feel like a sanctuary with just a little bit of effort.

For example, you can use the right furniture and bedding to make your room comfier. Or maybe you’d want to buy new items to give your bedroom a personalized look. You can bring your favourite pillows, rugs, blankets, bookshelves, desks, and lamps to make your space cozy and inviting.

Get Home Supplies

Another important thing you need to do when you move into your new college apartment is to get the necessary supplies. The most important items include kitchen supplies similar to the ones you’ve got back home. This will help create a homey atmosphere.

Think about dishes, pots, utensils, and pans. Also, consider purchasing toiletries, towels, and any other essentials you’ll use regularly.
