Fun Ways To Spice Up Your Dorm Room Decor

With your dorm room being your home away from home for nine months out of the year, its important to the make your space feel as cozy and as "you" as possible. My roommate and I freshman year took it upon ourselves to put our individual touches on our room and we couldn't have been happier with the results. We loved spending time in our room and it definitely felt more like home because of a few touches we added. Here are just a few of the ways we spiced up our dorm room decor!

1. Wooden Letters
The wooden letters seen here are inexpensive and help give your room a more personal touch. I decided to place letters spelling out my name above my desk and my roommate did the same.


2. Wall Decals
These are such an easy way to add excitement to the boring dorm room walls, as well as give your room a more fashionable touch! They come in various sizes and designs and are easy to apply and remove from any type of wall.


3. Decorative Lamp
Including a decorative lamp, aside from the typical desk lamp or clip-on loft lamp, helps create a more inviting glow to your dorm room. A stylish lamp gives your room another light source aside from the harsh dorm lights and is another way to help tie in your dorm room theme.
