If you have a sliding door and want to get some blinds for them, then here are some things you will want to consider. The first is that since you will be moving the door a lot, this can cause your blinds to swing back and forth depending on the sliding door blinds that you get. This can result in the blinds falling off. So to prevent this, you will want to get ones that have an extra secure holding piece where the blinds and the top of the slider meets. If you happen to already have some cheap ones but don’t want to replace them, you can secure them in with some tape as well. Make sure that when you go out and buy the blinds that you measure your door first to get the right size.

As many college students find, having a sleepover with friends can be a real pain in small dorm rooms that are pervasive on many university campuses.  That is why stores like IKEA and elsewhere carry a large line of corner sofa beds that are perfect furniture pieces for dorm rooms.  Most of the conversion sofas will fold out to at least a double size bed if not a little bigger, and are actually quite comfortable.  If you find yourself looking for a way to have an extra bed, but need to save as much space as possible, this is the way to go.  Many of the corner sofa units sell for well under five-hundred dollars and many can be found used on websites like Craigslist.  Good luck finding a friend with a truck though!
