[@sarac8389]

ah, yes. I'm glad I finally know where and how in my dorm room to keep my garden hose.

[@bia5723]

Sara Bella Yes, I know right. It's been such a struggle all these years.

[@ImNotTellingYou-ht8uq]

😂😂🤣🤣

[@fIycorpse]

Under the table, but why do you have a garden hose anyway

[@Butterfly-vr9dn]

Sara Bella cant tell if your being sarcastic 😂

[@user-vu9zf1et5i]

Go back to tumblr

[@TheIJP123]

As someone who just moved out of her dorm- trust me, you will never use shit like this or even care to have it lol

[@stargazejk]

taejay blink.....

[@fabiolacuevas8912]

I’m not even in college and I do need them

[@sarahgbarber]

I'd use it just for my bedroom.

[@aakritisharma9665]

College students aren't allowed to drill holes in their dorms, command hooks only!!!🤗🤓

[@nayadaboubash9150]

Aakriti Sharma HAHAHAHAHA

[@eng.usamasadek3402]

Aakriti Sharma i

[@jonathanfootit6139]

Aakriti Sharma slowly claps

[@themcflygirl99]

I'm glad someone said it

[@vanessascharettebarrios9462]

yeah. you are right! that really sucks for us.

[@jerushajose2699]

honestly, I live in a barren room with a bed and a table. this fancy shit takes time and money, which I, as a college student, can't afford.

[@cavejohnsonstanaccount4635]

I'm sure the DIY glitter bowl was cheap, and easy.

[@SilverAchlys]

what's even cheaper is not even buying mod podge and glitter. If you have extra supplies left over from some project back when you were in elementary school, than these projects are perfect.

[@powerpuff4ever]

LeDerpium Herpium honestly, almost all of them are cheap and easy. One of them is literally empty cereal boxes. They just don't want to do them 😂

[@potocatepetl]

But you have time to watch videos on youtube..... This no time excuse is always annoying. You have time for everything if you know how to efficiently plan you time. If you are lazy on the other hand, just say that. You'd rather relax instead of working. It is as simple as that and most important, honest.

[@zorgaxb]

Jerusha Jose well, (almost) everything can be substituted

[@awkwardev7110]

those are all pretty sick looking, but there's no way a college student got time for all of that

[@Kate-ob2kk]

awkwardev well, maybe the summer before college you make them?

[@TheOne-ph2jc]

awkwardev neither do they have or their parents have to money

[@powerpuff4ever]

awkwardev there's always plenty of time in the first week. My freshman year, I knew people who planned their dorm room designs months in advance

[@elizabethquach7976]

this is like the decorating for the types of people that were super excited to decorate their lockers on the first day of middle school and then just tore up their plastic chandelier the next week

[@ar2537]

awkwardev yep and all this is costly i guess

[@mollygreen3073]

One problem.. some colleges you can't drill things into the wall

[@maria-ow5yx]

Molly Green maverick

[@maddie5041]

Be a maverick

[@stephanielancher4989]

Molly Green #logang

[@aliceaj6348]

Hello fellow maverick

[@emmawall8544]

Molly Green #loganster hey girl

[@caitlinpeavey2990]

I feel like most of these are the sort of thing you'd do BEFORE college -- like over the summer as stuff to do with parents, friends or siblings. When I was in college I barely had time to eat dinner, let alone cover a cardboard box with twine and hot glue. Also, some of them might be better for an apartment than for a dorm room.

[@mmlei7540]

I've washi-taped my keyboard before and it comes off fairly easily, though it looks pretty nice for the first few hours. Just be aware that a loooooot of work will go into something that won't last.

[@dragonsnack1335]

Yes, put tape over the keyboard... so I can't use it.

[@huizh.3957]

Heidi Stewart thats why u use marker to write the logos! (-:

[@wenderpwenderp897]

Han Hui Zhen but we can't remember the order

[@huizh.3957]

Wenderp Wenderp errr... take a pic of ur keyboard using ur phone before pasting the tape?

[@mchjsosde]

Wenderp Wenderp or look up a qwerty keyboard on your phone....

[@amandab4733]

Han Hui Zhen a lot of people use their keyboards so much on a daily basis, that they have all of the keys memorized, like I do :)

[@katluvr7973]

I'm pretty sure college students don't have the time, money, or permission to drill in walls for these projects.

[@jackiebunting4000]

I work full time and go to college. I make the time.

[@cosmicmess489]

Celeste Michaelis Then go to DIASO or DOLLAR TREE :/

[@jinscupofcoffee7075]

then stop nagging, as simple as that. they put effort into this video and if you can think like a mature human being then other people can do this other than college students.

[@maricelapesina1471]

Who knows the rules might of change 😠

[@denisabaciu5615]

Actually most are.

[@merismce]

I love how they blur out the names of the brands when we can clearly see what the item is lmao

[@sammierd]

meris mce copyright protection is failing us.I CALL TOTAL LOCKDOWN

[@woeisi]

meris mce wow exactly what i was just thinking

[@LOONAppears]

they do this to avoid legal issues and to not get an ugly lawsuit

[@DaChooch24]

BuzzFeed needs to step up their level

[@pizzaperson8632]

meris mce Ikr

[@alyssamcknight317]

These are more for teens who have nothing to do all summer.

[@alma_najem]

Alyssa McKnight I’m a teen with nothing to do over the summer and I don’t have the wall space or desire to do half this shit

[@mathimaheswaran748]

I’m a teen who has nothing to do during self isolation

[@nyanya444]

Or quarantine haha

[@argisellek9249]

Alyssa McKnight ikr

[@panspotion]

@@nyanya444 i was just about to comment that 😂

[@sshs31]

i dont know where all yalls buzzfeed people went to school but might want to toss the bookshelf idea out the window unless you feel like paying for damage fees for drilling holes in dorm room walls geniuses

[@lanvan11]

Awesome! What college do you go to?

[@tristanmeyers4717]

YES! I finally have a use for that soda ash I have laying around my dorm!

[@lilacblue3331]

Lol

[@lilacblue3331]

Do you really though? That pillowcase looks cool

[@joiscott182]

Im in college you think I can afford the luxury of cereal I don't think so

[@lazyperfectionist3978]

if your college has a free weekly breakfast thing like mine does, you could always steal the empty boxes when they're not looking. Otherwise, you can either dumpster dive or substitute boxes.

[@ashlynbiundo5439]

Pretty sure she was being sarcastic, lol.

[@cyanidesparkles]

Mac Doesn'tDoit I'm in college and I sacrifice breakfast for Starbucks

[@mawadatellawi4277]

What kind of dorm lets you drill holes in the walls?!!

[@cosmicmess489]

Mawada Tellawi If you go to a lucky one or do it if you have a house

[@blue-or7co]

Mine but u have too fiill them up by the end of the year

[@user-rt4ym4nj7z]

My cousins dorm alows you to have holes becuz next year they will put posters of inspiration there

[@galaxygirl8423]

seriously a glitter bowl who needs a glitter bowl in university?

[@bleachiniac]

me: watching the video my brain: how in earth they have all those materials and gadgets for those crafts? *wondering*

[@rh8656]

Honestly where are we gonna get all that??!

[@mintie-verse3444]

the dollar store?? it's really easy to buy a pillow for 2 - 3 dollars

[@sayfabouasy5149]

PrincessPeachyy i thought you said dollar

[@pinkheart315]

Rosaleen Herondale I agree but not everywhere you have dollar stores & who would have so many empty photo frames. Buying is a waste. From where I am everything isn't cheap. But the ideas are great though

[@jackiebunting4000]

Dollar store, clearance at craft stores, Lowe's?.. Lol.

[@briannab5296]

+Jackiee Is Me ... yard sales?

[@monique0716]

For the twin baskets if you're gonna spend all that time and money doing that just but them for like $10

[@shivanirajavaram1195]

When you fuzz out the brand name but everyone knows that it's Cheerios lmao

[@user-uc6hl6pr1j]

Umm I didnt know itwas cheerios cus I dont live in USA or any other country popular with ut

[@rafiaahsan02]

why are the sides of the cereal boxes blurred you can clearly see they're cheerios.

[@ckr5166]

Rafia Ahsan it's copyright issues

[@tiahr1939]

You can't include "dorm" in your title and drilling in the video....

[@cosmicmess489]

Tia Hr Get a house then

[@aromlaa7066]

Brooklyn Hope- Then it's a house decoration video! Not, a dorm video! If you have a house, you wouldn't need to do any of these things. It's not easy to "get", and mostly buy, a house. Especially if you're in college, studying, and doing homework.

[@saammmy7]

Some dorms let you put holes in the walls. And if not you can cover up the holes before you move out and hope they don't notice/care.

[@sachikapoor4663]

You can't drill holes in dorm rooms...

[@lavenderrroses]

exactly what I was thinking!

[@ginaheisenberg3608]

Sachi Kapoor You can in some ...

[@crescentmoon4434]

Other than the "levitating bookshelf" and "adjustable pegboard shelf" hack which require you to drill into the wall there are some pretty good tapes you can get to hold up picture frames and posters without ruining the wall. It's how most of the pictures in my house are held up.

[@gavinmcgowan6948]

i love how they post this just as school is ending

[@fiona9865]

i thought this was 5 minute crafts at first and i was like “huh, these aren’t really that bad”

[@LadyBug-xp1ox]

Putting holes in the wall is a NO-NO! 😂 I love that idea, hopefully I can find a way to do it with command hooks.

[@flarecat3614]

I don't know what everyone in the comments is talking about, other than the fact that you can't drill holes in a dorm room these DIYs are pretty sick.

[@iknowyouguysarelookingform3799]

If i wrote different letters than the original on the keyboard I could totally prank someone. Me: Can we meet up today? Friend: asjuebsh egreb ueuedb! ui kto jeop

[@al3theabean]

It's 1:16 am. What am I doing with my life

[@marieo.7593]

Why am i watching this? I ain't livin in a dorm! I still live with my parents!

[@SanchiOberoi23]

DO NOT PUT TAPE ON YOUR MAC KEYBOARD, I did that and the keys got messed up and I had to replace my keyboard

[@linda_pham]

i put washi tape (japanese paper tape) and even painted acrylic on it, and my keyboard is fine. your tape must be the problem *shrug

[@bitslay]

Use nice tapes

[@ok-ff1wf]

Did you use washi tape...?

[@Kate-ev5jc]

You shouldn't put normal tape on your keyboard, that'll mess it up, but washi tape is generally fine because it's paper tape and it's pretty easy on whatever it's stuck on compared to normal tape

[@hayleejames2209]

This stuff is cool but let's be honest ain't nobody got time for that! 😐😕😏

[@blue-or7co]

Haylee James i do

[@theartyworldofkarlaabad8755]

It's probably best to clean the room than add more stuff that you'll lose under your bed with the pile of garbage under it.

[@mjayb19]

all of these cost less to actually buy than to make it yourself, trying to buy all of these ingredients no one has.

[@harshavijayanand1407]

Before you go around hatin' on people, maybe learn the correct words. Nobody bought any ingredients, they're called "materials"

[@luvnhate.]

man how come the glitter bowl works for them but not threadbanger😂

[@bbyxo0o]

WHO THE FUCK HAS SODA ASH

[@gravityuniverse1468]

kiwibirbz what is Soda ash

[@user-bx8vv2pf5g]

i do

[@yetanotheranna]

im pretty sure its baking soda, but im not positive

[@dasaltypotatochip9862]

Guacamole bet

[@razee.8303]

baking soda is a good dupe

[@brightey3s231]

Whose got a dog in there dorm room?

[@galaxygirl8423]

Thrash Panda who knows

[@MyLittleHomie]

Thrash Panda maybe it's a service dog

[@katrinalewis4712]

Thrash Panda lucky people

[@Amsayy]

Thrash Panda I smuggled my cat in pol

[@aliceaj6348]

My dog is so quiet and small that I just carry it around and in my dorm XD

[@jasminemelin4614]

A little tip for the pegboard, if you hang a rod from the pegs, you could put enclume hooks and hang most utensils or cookware that have holes in the ends instead of tying strings that could set on fire or get grimy. It's a lot sturdier that way and they fit the holes on the ends of kitchen tools perfectly

[@salmaamir1754]

Am I the only one who is watching this but is still in school?

[@angels7901]

salma amir even i am in school

[@heditamm3247]

Ain't nobody got time for that 💁🏽

[@TheCaptainJade]

That washi tape is gonna come right tf off and get really distorted, why waste your time ruining your keyboard??

[@Grace-md9gp]

2:54 i watched that part of the video then 20 seconds later i was like "wait is that a tomato?!"

[@snigdha7427]

The diy clothes organizer that you made will end somewhere at the corner of my wardrobe

[@nestwah]

Early on a buzzfeed video that's new lol

[@lynb]

i mean you can drill holes but no one wants to paint and spackle that later... if that college allows that

[@sharshey6035]

the magnetic plate is super smart. good for earrings, less likely to get knocked all over the place

[@nicoleskey]

That floating bookshelf is awesome ♥❤♥

[@KkcAnimations]

I like how they used "dopest" in the title but none of them where "dope" They where pretty cool tho :)

[@citrussarcodactylis526]

If I have to see the words "Washi Tape" in another video ever again, I might hurt someone.

[@dattebayo155]

I will prolly never do any of this myself, but somehow I just like ppl who diy. I could have stuff like this running in the background all day! And nifty is seriously one of the best words ha ha

[@macmundy5640]

That's the first time I've seen tie dye done that way. So cool!

[@markrandomlastnamethatisnt7578]

You probably shouldn't have dopest in the title. It's pretty fricking cringe.

[@strawberry8099]

Mark Randomlastnamethatisnttaken Fricking is pretty cringe, too.

[@masasisic5475]

Mark Randomlastnamethatisnttaken dope dope dope dope dope dope

[@gabrielleamador3351]

Mark Randomlastnamethatisnttaken the dopest

[@emmavalentin1909]

0:33 Buzzfeed please be original, geez. That is obviously different material, but hey, if a clip from a whole different DIY is what it takes to make some smart idea seam 'easy' and possible then hey, whatevs

[@triniroma4957]

What even was that one second clip

[@xxo8888]

I love the levitating bookshelf idea!

[@cosmicmess489]

[@kandy8588]

That drawer organizer was the most genius idea since sliced bread

[@stxrmdc]

Life's full of studies and assignments. Can't even sleep properly due to projects and making all these needs huge time. Anyone else having the same story can comment and make me feel that I'm not the only one..😢😢😢

[@darthslayder6904]

The only reason this video has this many likes is because there was a dog in it. Btw, most people don't bring their dog to college.

[@itsmekatie8981]

What the heck why did They blur out the Cheerios logo

[@_wildfire123_6]

It’s me Katie copyright issues

[@lunajayde_xx]

It’s me Katie so they wouldn’t have to pay royalties to Cheerios.

[@vedasoleil1416]

Ima just spice up my room before I go to college and I'm not broke, so when I get there I'll already have a bunch of matching decor to bring.

Shouldn't College students be studying instead of doing this or do they got too much free time and procrastinate

[@ArisuWaShindeIru]

[@jackiebunting4000]

Gerald Soria I study, work full time, and craft. It's possible. Time management.

[@cosmicmess489]

[@m.lydsss]

Time management😊

[@emily.6903]

Gerald Soria Ya MOM

[@AkhiSaranya1120]

I'm HOOKED by this, I certainly don't want to SCREW up, this seems like the TYPE OF diy I would wanna do#

[@chey_daniella]

Since no college students are allowed to drill holes in their walls a good alternative is a command hook strip. You can buy the strips separately from the hooks and just let a bit stick out at the bottom for easy removal.

[@iliyanamarei]

Um these are hardly conducive to a dorm room...

[@hannah6969]

You mean "11 diys to make the most cringy Girl dorm" Edit: okay you guys are apparently mad. And i just gotta say it was kinda of a joke, No need on takling it so serios😂😂😂

[@ameesloesarwij1618]

Yeah basically

[@chloebillet6086]

hannahzisko-you know there is such things as customizing stuff right?

[@ainsleysuntjens1921]

why are we gendering fricking diy projects

[@hannah6969]

jupiter i mean of course boys Can Use these to But Its kinda more over in the Girl side and i just thougth that they should have made it equal

[@hannah6969]

Chloe Baker still😂😂

[@RavishingDiva]

All the Ideas were Great. And Glitter bowl was Pretty cool to Gift someone. You are putting Great Efforts 👍👍

[@lmchhon]

"Wait 20-ish minutes" Who else found that hilarious? Also everyone is saying they got no time for this but in quarantine, you got ALL the time

[@royaahmadi1890]

I LOVED the glitter bowl!!!!

[@maryk5836]

I need EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE IN MY LIFE

[@callmeyourdai5y518]

'blurs out logo but very clearly shows that it's cheerios and shows cheerios in description on box' flawless

[@jillhbaudhaan]

The last one with the copper things to make shelving was cool

[@nikhithabiju6328]

5:57 Who has a cupcake tin in their dorm room when most students eat hot pockets and instant ramen?

[@bahahaaItsAriana]

I might have to make that pillow. It looked pretty cool and almost smokey

[@trekslcg]

If you are going to make the peg board, use a Forstner bit instead you will get straighter and cleaner results. It's also easier to manage

[@LesLie-uh9de]

1:55 you can't fuel us, we know you have been eating cheerios

[@debaleena11]

These DIYs are ordered by their difficulty level starting from the least to the most

[@jessicasimpson6041]

So it’s a good idea to make REMOVABLE TAPE LABELS for your laptop keyboard which will sit in your dorm room, waiting for one of your roommates to come swap keys when you don’t see. Great idea

[@longkumer_9629]

I like the cereal box idea, and the laundry box

[@yusraarabi9519]

Mint is literally my most favourite colour ever

[@gabsrendon7920]

Ah, classic BuzzFeed. Teaching us crafts that no dorm room would EVER allow.

[@VictoriaStocker10]

i love how hard they tried to hide that it was a cheerios box but it legit says cheerios in 8 different places

[@jvnfkfgmvjvfmvkf]

1:41 that handwriting on the shift key is just-

[@morgank6653]

these are cool, but no college kid needs it. my dorm includes bed dresser bookshelf desk microwave

[@hugsaj2462]

If you did all the room decor videos in KZbin you would have the coolest/weirdest house ever!

[@kirtiprajapati8753]

THAT PUPPY WAS SO CUTE

[@maddieschroeder6422]

Anyone else find these randomly satisfying??

[@Toffnm]

All these negative comments, and I'm just sitting here mind blown by the magnetic dish plate like why did I not think of that :O Awesome!
