As a college student, there isn’t exactly an extensive budget for room decor, so when it comes to holiday decor the more versatile the better. When it comes to celebrating the season of love, atmosphere is everything, so show your room some love with these room decor tips for Valentine’s Day that you can keep up all year long.
- Flower Power
-
Flowers? For Valentine’s Day? Groundbreaking. Whether you go real, or faux; flowers can be a great way to liven up your space by adding fun colors and texture. You can go the traditional route by adding a vase to your desk, or you can play with an accent wall by adding floral garland from floor to ceiling. This can be a great way to fill up un-used wall space.
- Leather and Lace
-
Everyone knows that the essentials to Valentine’s Day decor; it’s all about soft feminine prints and textures. Use this season to step up your texture game by adding in floral printed sheets, lace-trimmed pillows, even crushed velvet throws. To make these pieces work all year-round pick more neutral colors such as white, champagne or even a light pink accent to give that Valentine’s Day aesthetic.
- Light It Up!
-
Now, when it comes to college room decor, everyone uses some sort of string lights. While neon signs have been a trend for the last few years, they take string lights to a whole new level. Adding neon heart signs, or even girl power quotes (for those of us single during this season) can be an edgy way of playing with light and color that can be reused during every season. Also, if you’re DIY savvy and want to make your own mural, you can buy flexible neon wire from pretty much anywhere online!
- Festive Garland
-
Garland can be a fun way to cover up vast wall space with little to no effort. The best part is this DIY craft can be customizable to your room’s needs. If you’re feeling festive you can add felt heart cutouts to your string or if you want a more versatile garland you can go with the classic pom-poms. Either way, this is an affordable and easy way to spice up your room this season.
