I'm loving this series you're doing for your cousin, Nikki. I was organized back when I went to college, but not quite as good as you are with this :) My twins will be off to college in 2 more years so I find this series you're doing so very helpful. You're decorating and organizing Jewel's space with the same attention to detail, function and beauty as you do with your home and that's great! xo
Hi there, Nikki! Wow, these are great ideas and tools for organization, for people living in dorms, small homes or apartments. Such an efficient use of space, as well as a beautiful look. This video is so easy to watch, and I have always found it difficult to be organized. Thank you so very much. I plan on utilizing this for my Grand Child and myself as well. Hugs, Val.
Again, you have done it. I think these are wonderful videos, if you are down sizing, upgrading a child's room, outfitting a nursing home room, these videos show you how to make the most of a small space without giving up style or function. You've done a wonderful job! And congratulations to your cousin, I think you have set her up to succeed with confidence. Everytime she is in her space, I know she will think of all the love you put into each detail.
Such a sweet gesture to make her those glitsy pens! The white book holder will be so helpful, since there are often few shelves in a dorm. Jewel will have a fab dorm room!
Your niece is one lucky girl! She is going to have the best looking dorm room on campus! Love your ideas. Those pens are too cute. You are a very talented lady.
Hi Nikki! I love everything you have selected for the room, great color palette. So much function and beauty. She is going to be a happy camper! I cannot wait tosee all of the upcoming videos. TFS, Liza :)
This is getting so exciting! I can't wait to see the final result! How nice to be able to study in such an organized and stylish environment. I think when you're in school staying organized is half the battle. Your cousin definitely has an advantage in that regard thanks to you Nikki! You need your own show on HGTV….
Nikki, I absolutely love the chair cover idea!! What a brilliant way of dressing up a boring chair and bringing style into that area. I also love mixing patterns with pops of colors. It's inviting and inspirational to want to do homework. Having a clean, organize, and cute desk makes life soo much easier...lol I hope all is well.
Love it! Thank you so much for sharing. Your cousins room mates are going to be jealous of how fantastic her spaces look. Can't wait for the next video.
Even if I'don't have a dorm desk to organize, I love your shopping haul. The chair cover is something I will definitely use in my office. Thank you for sharing Nikki! Have a great day. Big hugs. Chantal :)
Your a great inspiration Nikki !! What you do and your hard work shows through your videos. Wish for some day to start a channel like you. Being able to do what you love is a blessing. Nikki mentor !
What wonderful ideas!! The white wood caddy would be great in a small kitchen especially if the cabinets are white. The postcards, notebooks, lotions etc in the caddy would make a great gift. The solid color boxes are great ideas and color choices are beautiful. I am sorting family photos and will use those boxes to give to my nieces, sister, daughter, daughter in law, son, and grandson as a gift. This series is so helpful and ideas practical for anyone and especially in small spaces. Thank you for sharing your inspiring ideas. You do help people make their everyday life brighter!!
I can't tell you enough how much your videos have inspired me. I'm glad I found your channel and I hope you continue to be blessed with great ideas to share with us. I love these decor tips, I can take these even if I'm not in school and use them in my small office space at work. Thanks again!
Rockilyyy Thank you so much! That means so much to me! I love sharing with you and to know that you find it helpful and enjoyable keeps me inspired. I appreciate you! I hope you had a wonderful start to your week. Hugs. Nik
Nice job, Nikki. I actually saw the white organizer and the acrylic box at Home Goods this past weekend and now I wish I had picked them up for my desk LOL. Shoot. Guess I'm going back. OMG, my daughter goes to the same school. Awesome. She loves it. I hope your cousin will also. My daughter is actually helping with move-ins this year. I will have to tell her to keep an out for you since she will be moving in early in order to help with the new move-ins.
This almost makes me want to go back to college to get another degree... almost. ;-) I've said it before but it warrants repeating: What a lucky young lady! With all your wonderful help, your cousin is going to have a huge jump start at staying on top of things. So many freshmen are unprepared for the workload of college-level courses along with all the responsibilities of being out on their own for the first time without parental supervision and guidance. Giving her tools and systems to stay organized, and I'm sure some great advice to really hone her time-management skills, she will no doubt have great success away at school.
EEN63 Awww! Now that is a huge compliment! Thank you so much! So true! I hope she has a fabulous year. She is such a great girl! I hope all is going great your way. Sending you huge hugs. Nik
Hey Nikki, you are a woman after my heart Organized, and pretty room decor, I actually purchased many of the same organizational tools for my sophomore, she and I love coordinating, organization and themes. Breakfast at tiffany's was our inspiration this year. One thing I made for my daughter as a freshman and as a yearly staple was a feel better box, in the box I placed cough drops, allergy medicine, chloraseptic throat spray, ibuprophen, lemon zinger tea, neosporin, bandages, personalized hand written notes to cheer her up if not feeling well, and lastly I xeroxed laminated insurance cards, and emergency contacts placed in a small lock box inside of her feel better box. I thought you would appreciate that idea and you may want to send one to your cousin. Keep up the great work!
I'm a new subscriber and I'm loving these dorm/ small space organizing ideas! Thank you! You clearly are talented at making every place you go beautiful!
Lindsey John Hi Lindsey! So happy you made it my way! Love sharing this dorm series with you. This has been such a fun project. Thank you so much! I hope your week has gotten off to a wonderful start. Hugs. Nik
Love these videos, I am so envious of your cousin. And so pleased your back doing what you do best, organising and interior design. Thank you you're great xxx
Awesome video and the books/journal you chose with the inspirational words are great. Everyone needs to be encouraged and those are great ideas for any student or office. I liked every aspect of this video and the ideas are great to use even for students living at home attending community college. The filing system will help them to learn organizational importance. Thanks for your professional videos.
Oh gracious, Nik, where do I start. The boxes and pens. Colors pop. Chair cover and runner. I can make those. Such fantastic ideas that can be incorporated into any same space. You are a genius. Your family is so blessed to have you working this project. More! More! More ! Lol love it. God bless. ☺🐈
victorianne13 Awww thanks! So glad you are enjoying them. Love that all is going great your way and you are all ready for school! That is AWESOME! I Hope you have a wonderful school year. Hugs. Nik
I wish I had you to help when I started Uni two years ago! Although, I imagine it would be much more difficult to style a tiny dingy English Student Halls room. I am getting ready to move into a rented apartment with my boyfriend and will be implementing tonnes of your ideas. :)
nphowe Thank you! Most definitely! I will be taking you on my journey of putting the space together and you will see the finished dorm space in August. Hope you will continue to enjoy! Hugs. Nik
Hi Nikki I love your videos. I hear you speak of Tuesday Morning all the time and to my surprise they brought them to NJ. It has become my favorite store and I am blaming you for helping go into the poor house. LOL. Just kidding. Thank you for the videos. I have a lot of ideas for my new house that I am about to purchase. Keep the vidoes coming lady. Take care.
If your cousin's desk doesn't come with a hutch, you may want to consider getting one. It adds so much space. I'm not sure where mine is from but I know they have them at The Container Store.
I love this series; I wish you were my aunt so I could organize my office, lol! (I'm way past your cousin's age.) My challenge is I'm too visual; if it's in a pretty box I don't remember what it contains. Other than labeling, have you any tips?
Nikki, you are just so talented! Random question: where did you get the white file folders inside the file box? Last summer while updating my file system I had a hard time locating some. Thx
Charlie4Kinks They are hard to locate in white. I ran across them at office depot on clearance a while back and picked up all they had. If I find them anywhere else I will be sure to post it on my fb/twitter. Hope you are having a great week so far. Hugs. Nik
These ideas are wonderful!! But, how do you Stop the room-mates from using the good stuff you set aside for her? I went ro Southern University and I found that some folks, depending pn how they were raised, would use everyone else's well thought out resources. How do you fight against that?
marie watson Thanks Marie! She has a dorm apartment which means she has her own room with a door that locks. They share a common kitchen and living area. Thanks for watching! Hugs. Nik
Nikki, what a great video! It was exciting to see you incorporate our pens into your daughter's dorm room decor! She's so lucky to have such a creative mom! We're having a sale on the #beadable pens in our online store. If your customers mention they saw this video we'll send them a gift bag of beads! Thanks so much for making us a part of your Home!

Nikki, please do a video of her room when you finish?
I wish you were my Cousin Nikki, I would love a couple of those pens...
I would love to know how you became so organized. Is it innate? Did you learn from your mother?
I love it!
All I'm wondering is how much all her dorm stuff cost?!!!!
Where did you store the dorm room furniture that you didnt use
Very nice!
bosslady1598 Thank you! Hope you had a great day! Hugs. Nik
Super cute.
I wish Nikki would do my room
Hi love the video! Very informative and inspiring.
Where do you get the beads for the pens?
