What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs,

blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and

format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

Twin XL Comforters

Are you looking to get one of the comfiest ways for your favorite college student to feel like home in their dorm room or apartment? If they live in a dorm, make sure to snag a comforter that fits a Twin XL mattress (the standard size for dorm rooms). If they live in an apartment, make sure you inquire about the size of their bed before purchasing to make sure they get the most use out of your gift.

Dormify has a variety of options for comforter choices in regards to colors and patterns, so you really cannot go wrong. Whether you are on the hunt for a comforter or a duvet, there is something for everyone. 

Proper Storage

Something that every college student needs to have in their dorm room or apartment, no matter how much stuff they have, is storage that can multitask. There are many amazing storage items that can help a college student to stay organized with keeping their belongings all in one place, without feeling like it gets in the way.

Living in a college dorm room can be tough because of the limited space, and also having to share their living space with another roommate or two. Selecting the right storage for such a small space can be a make or break for organization and ease in a dorm room. There are a variety of options to choose from, whether it is in the form of a storage cart, a caddy, a cabinet, or an over the chair organizer. 

Comfy Blankets

Everyone needs an extra blanket or two for their bed and just something to snuggle up with,study with, read in, take a nap in-- or even to just relax and watch a TV show after class. This can bring a sense of comfort and “hominess” to a sometimes bland dorm room. 

Dormify has a variety of blankets to choose from, whether you are hoping for something to match the rest of the room, if you want to give a blanket that is specific to their college, or if you are hoping for something more decorative for the end of the bed or on the couch. 

Bathroom Essential Every Dorm Room or Apartment Needs

Moving into a dorm or apartment is an experience every college student enjoys, but it’s also important to have everything that they need prior to moving in. While apartments are a different case, many dorms don’t have their own bathrooms and students instead have to use a communal bathroom. There are many other colleges where dorm rooms have bathrooms in them, so make sure to get the best bathroom essentials that they may need!

Towel Sets

Towels are important to have for every bathroom, so make sure to get a college student a towel that suits them– whether they prefer a bath sheet, a towel set, or a wrap around towel.  Everybody needs bath towels for their bathroom, so this is a perfect gift because they will last a long time, and they will always be a necessity. 

For students with longer hair, a microfiber hair towel is also a great option, and makes it easy to let your hair dry quickly and efficiently. Hand towels are also a necessity, so there is a list of options to pick from if this is the category you are shopping in. Bonus points if everything is matching!

Bath Mat

When it comes to bathrooms, everybody needs a bath mat to step on as soon as you get out of the shower. Not only will it prevent you from slipping out onto the bathroom floor immediately after you step out of the shower, but it will also keep your feet warm and dry them off instantly. Dormify has tons of bath mat options that match with each student’s different aesthetics. 

Bath mats are perfect not only outside of the tub, but it is great to put under sinks as well, which makes them a great gift for a student’s dorm, even if they don’t have their own bathroom. 

Shower Caddy

One thing that every college student will need for a dorm room is a shower caddy. They do not want to have to lug all of their shower supplies back and forth from the bathroom every time they shower, and if they are lucky enough to have their own bathroom, having a shower caddy makes it easier to differentiate their belongings from their roommates belongings. 

Whether you prefer cloth or plastic shower caddies, Dormify has lots of options, even if you want one that hangs from the shower wall rather than one that can be carried around. 

Kitchen Utensils, Coffee Maker, and More 

The next type of college dorm warming gift ideas that you should also think about should be for a kitchen or kitchenette. Whether the college student you love is living in a dorm, or has a full kitchen in their apartment, it’s important to get them everything they need when it comes to the kitchen.

Coffee Station

Almost every college student survives the long days and nights with caffeine. What every college student needs for their dorm room or their apartment is a coffee station. This should be equipped with a coffee maker to start, such as a Keurig, Nespresso, or whatever kind of coffee pot best suits them (maybe they are more of a French press or pour over type of person– completely understandable).

The rest of the station will depend on what the student likes, whether they want to arm their coffee cart with flavored syrups, mugs, coffee holding drawers or towers, or whatever else they might enjoy. But, one thing is for certain– they will need to decorate. There is tons of coffee art out there to choose from that can help customize a student’s space. 

Kitchen Tools

Are you looking for the best kitchen utensils to get your favorite college student so they start the new year off prepared to make some delicious meals? Dormify has everything a student might need to turn a corner of their dorm room into a kitchen that could be mistaken for a 5-star-restaurant. 

Most dorm rooms already come equipped with a mini fridge, but if your student’s room doesn't, it will likely be a request. Other than that, a storage cart for snacks, silverware set, a blender, or other simple kitchen tools would be a great option that can help a student make delicious food in the comfort of their dorm room. 

Snacks

When all else fails, buy some snacks that your student might not be able to access at school that can remind them of home. They will be grateful that they don’t have to spend the extra money on it, and it can bring some comfort into their dorm room.

Or, you can opt for the logical route and equip them with canned goods and microwavable shelf-safe food that they can store for those days that they don’t want to take the long walk to the dining hall. They will be extremely appreciative– trust us. 

Giving a student the gift of something they will actually use and need can be extremely fulfilling– that is, if you know what to buy! Image courtesy of Dormify.
