Let’s go back. Way back to the beginning of summer when the school year felt oh-so-far-away! That’s when we first told you guys about our big plans for a dorm room makeover for a special gal and her roomie, and showed you our inspiration for the teeny tiny space.
We also introduced you to Dormify…a company we wish was around when we were back in school. Over these past few summer months, we spent some time planning, scheming, and ordering some seriously gorgeous items from Dormify for Grace’s dorm room.
And then last weekend, like 2 giddy schoolgirls, we headed back to college to makeover the rooms of these awesome girls.
We headed to Regina Hall on the beautiful campus of Saint Mary’s College. We are big fans of Saint Mary’s College because it’s right across the street from Casey’s alma mater, Notre Dame. Plus, Casey’s grandma went to SMC…so there’s lots of love for this school around here!
Upon arriving, we realized that freshmen dorm rooms really haven’t changed since we were both college-bound in 2006.
They’re still teeny-tiny. 
They’re still packed with generic wooden furniture. And they’re still ready for college kids to add their personality to every square inch.
After catching up with Grace & Fran, feeling nostalgic about the good ol’ days, and chugging some coffee …it was time to get to work. After several hours of working sweating our buns off in the non-AC dorm, we were excited to share the new look with these two ladies!

We are so incredibly excited for these 2 girls and hope they enjoy these spaces throughout the entire school year. We certainly enjoyed stepping out of our comfort zone to tackle a small space packed with lots of personality & color.
Grace + Fran,
Thanks for letting us feel like college kids again…even if it was just for a day. We can’t wait to hear all about your first semester in your new home away from home!
