Essentials for university.

Hey Cuties,
So I'm moving away in September to university in Leicester, and as you can expect, there's a lot to take with you. And to be quite honest, every day I remember something I need to bring.
So I thought to make it easier for the most of you, I'd write a list. I'll also include the non essentials like décor. I will do my best to include prices and where you can find this stuff at its very cheapest as I myself have had to keep it on a small budget.





So, let's begin!:

2 sets of bed sheets- covers, pillow cases etc

pillows (if not provided)
duvet (if not provided)
2 cups
2 glasses
2 plates
folks
spoons
knifes
set of cutting knifes
scissors
wooden spoon
baking trays
can opener
a set of towels
tea towels
extention lead (if needed)
A back of A4 Paper
frying pan
Masher
Plastic tubs
Coat hangers
sketch books/note pads/pens pencils etc.

where I found best to purchase the majority of this stuff being the best quality as well as being cheapest is Wilkinson's, I bought almost all of this stuff from there, and it all came under £100!

So once the essentials are out the way, then comes the décor. As a student, I tried to keep the money on décor to a low.
I brought this cat cushion from Primark for £4, I'm still waiting on finding the matching one as all the Primarks near me no long stock it): 
I also brought this door stop from Primark for £2, it's always good to have one of these as you don't want to be anti social with your new room mates.



I also picked up these coke glasses with the Marc Jacobs design 
on it, I thought these might be quite cool and usual decoration to have in my room. These were completely free as they were giving them out in the town centre!

Another idea for décor is to make your own canvases, I had some paint and canvas's lying around from when I loved art, so I created this galaxy print for completely free!

You can also get beautiful unique pieces for cheap from charity shops, so why not look around?






I hope this guide helped you, and maybe helped you remember anything you've forgotten. 

If there's anything you may think I've forgotten let me know in the comments, I'd love for you to share that with me:)

Until next time, Much love.

Kitty.
