Looking for the perfect room accessories to make your dorm room stand out? Look no further! At Her Campus SBU, we have searched high and low for the perfect addition to your room!

1.     For a Boho-inspired room, adding a tapestry to your wall will give off the perfect vibe. Tapestries come in all shapes and sizes, and they also come in so many different colors so the perfect one for you is out there!

2.     The perfect bedding is key to pull any room together. I recommend finding a neutral-patterned comforter so your colorful posters and wall hangings won’t clash with your bedding. Adding decorative pillows will make your bed a comfy hangout spot and will give your room another unique flare.

 

3.     Instead of just hanging plain pictures on the wall, try using colorful Washi tape to make a frame. It’s inexpensive and makes your pictures stand out. If you want to spend some money though you can check out wall decal frames online.

4.     Posters are a great way to display your interests and passions. Putting up some of your favorite things can be such a great conversation starter with new friends! Try finding a mix of all different shapes and sizes to add variety to your walls.

 

Decorating your dorm room can be so much fun, so don’t stress out if you don’t have the perfect room. Take inspiration from this article and your friends’ rooms to create your home away from home!
