Soooo... back in the day I was given loads of eighteenth gifts in bright primary colours, it being the eighties to take to Uni. Think floor lamp, kettle, toaster, quilt, cushions, bean bag and of course obligatory posters of James Dean and Marilyn Monroe. They were dragged from halls, to flats for years (long uni course) and it made each dump place feel like home.
I was thinking of getting a few things for DD but it occurred to me in todays safety culture that they're probably not allowed half of those things! Also will they look like a weirdo if they take a trailer full of Ikea knick-knacks?! What did your DC take, if anything?
