3 Dorm Room Decor Ideas

 With August knocking on our door, we decided to pull together some easy dorm room ideas. For those who don't want to go with a fully custom look, we are here to show you how to make a room look designer-inspired without the designer price tag (enter our favorite store, Target). A few things to keep in mind when heading to your new school (or for the parent sending your child away):

 

1) Storage, storage, storage! You will never have enough so the more decorative baskets you can find, the better! Make sure they're useful and not just for decoration

 

2) Go with durability... fabrics and textures that won't show dirt, spills, and will clean easily. Chances are your new freshman won't do much wash, so keep it easy! 

 

Let's start with this cool blue room with yellow accents:

 

 

Get the look:

white square pillow  |  quilt  |  yellow stripe pillow  |  light blue pillow  |  knit throw  |  striped sheets  |  pom pom mirror  |  letter board  |  yellow accent pillow  |  storage bin

 

Knowing us, we had to do a black & white room...

 

 

Get the look:

white square pillow  |  black geometric pillow  |  white striped pillow  |  fringe sheets  |  black & white striped duvet  |  knit throw  |  rattan lamp  |  rectangular letter board  |  mirror  |  shower curtain  |  bath mat  |  towels  |  pom pom basket

 

And finally, one for the boys (or boy moms):

 

 

Get the look:

quilt  |  sheet set  |  accent pillow  |  lamp  |  wood letter board  |  wire basket  |  towels
