Make your room BFF-friendly


Sick ‘n’ tired of barricading your room from your besties? We’re showing you how to take your space from crazy cluttered hazard zone to an awesome hangout for you and all of your buds.


From twin bed to daytime lounge
Converting your twin bed into a comfy day bed (also known as a place where you and your friends can relax and gab about your latest crushes) is as easy as 1-2-3. If it’s not already there, move your bed length-wise against one wall in your room. Toss a few bright cushions or pillows (we like the one below) against the wall to give ya some support. It will look just like a sofa and become you and your BFF’s new fave place to hang!

Tidy up
You and your bestie may know everything about each other, but the last thing she needs to see is your dirty undies littering the floor. Do your relationship a favor and buy a cute hamper, then make a point of tossing all of your worn clothes into it before going to bed. You can grab a plain one, like the hamper below, and decorate it with puffy paint and rhinestones if you like.

Beanbag baby
Comfy beanbag chairs, like the ones below, will give you and your BFF a great place to relax after a long day at school. Plus, they can easily be moved around your room and placed wherever you want. Store them when your BFF’s not there, then pull them out for some fun seating.

Feel the fuzz

To make your room even more inviting, create a friend zone with a fuzzy rug that’ll feel great under your toes. It will make your room super cozy…and offer up some comfy seating or extra padding when your buds are sleepin’ over.

Get your game on
Do you love playing rummy with your BFFs or hosting marathon Monopoly tournaments? Stow a basket of fun board games and decks of cards in a corner so you can pull it out whenever you’re looking for something to do.
