The floral design is happy and the colors are so bright they’ll distract from the bleariness of the white walls. This would look so good with a green bedspread or something in that marigold color!

Maybe light and bright tapestries aren’t for you- no worries! A tapestry like this can be perfect for you! The dark color would contrast really well with the white of the cinderblock in your dorm. If your room is mostly dark colors, this would fit right in, but it would be even cooler in a room that’s mostly light because it would be more of a contrast.
