Cute Dorm Room Ideas You And Your Roommate Will Be Obsessed With

Getting the chance to decorate your dorm room can be one of the most fun actives there is when first entering college, especially when you are doing it with a roommate! Here are some cute dorm room ideas you and your roommate will be obsessed with!

Fake Vines

Fake vines will make any dorm room instantly look as if you’ve stepped into a well-decorated jungle. Greenery never fails to bring serenity and calmness to any space. Green is also an easy color to base an overall color pallet off of for the whole dorm room. You can place them any and everywhere, or try and place them around discretely. Your choice!

Cute Tapestries

Tapestries are the perfect thing for any pair of roommates that are looking to make their room look bigger in a cute and aesthetically pleasing way. Tapestries come with all types of pictures and colors on them. That makes the possibilities endless on just what type of tapestry both you and your roommate can agree on!

Compromising is the hardest part about decorating your room, but once you do, it will be sure to pay off in the long run!

Fun Shelves

Shelves are a dorm room must, and there are hundreds of different designs out there that will make it incredibly easy to find a pair that you and your roommate can agree on and enjoy. We all know during the school year, it can be hard to keep things nice and tidy in your room. Shelves are a cute and fun way to help keep your items out of the way and to make sure you aren’t invading your roommate’s space with all of your stuff!

Picture Wall

When it comes to cute dorm room ideas, we’ve all heard of the famous picture wall idea, but it really is an easy way to decorate your room in an simple and effortless way. We all have pictures of our family members and loved ones, so coordinating with your college roommate about this decoration shouldn’t be too hard to do.

Neon Signs

Adding in a pop of neon to any dorm room will instantly make it a hundred times more aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Neon signs are the perfect way to add in a light source that isn’t those jarring or washed out lamps your dorm room may come with. The mood for your dorm will instantly become a lot more chill and relaxing the second you turn off all other lights! And the best part? There are plenty of different designs and colors that neon signs come in, making the possibilities endless!

Cute Seating

When it comes to dorm rooms, we all know you’re going to need a desk to sit at in order to accomplish all that homework and studying you’re going to have to do during the semester. But instead of getting a simple rolling chair, invest in some cute seating! It’s a simple and subtle way to spice up your dorm room without causing too much of a debate on whether or not you should get them. This is one of the many cute dorm room ideas that won’t take much effort in putting together.

Decorative Mirrors

This is yet another cute dorm room idea that won’t take much effort in putting up in your dorm room. We all need a mirror to check our appearance and make sure we are looking our best selves for the day (at least that’s what I do), so incorporating a cute and unique shaped mirror will make doing that much more fun!

Wall Paper Scroll

This decoration is basically a whiteboard but with paper. It’s an easy way to keep track of possible grocery items to shop for the next time you go to the market, or a way to remind you or your roommate of tests or assigns that are due. This decoration is just a fun way to make your dorm room more unique and classy at the same time. This type of item is especially great for anyone that has a dry erase board and is tired of going out of their way to buy new dry erase markers every time their olds ones dry out.

Plants

Real or fake, plants will never fail to make any room they’re in instantly brighter and more serene. I personally always pay a little extra for plants that I know I can’t kill. There are multiple kinds of fake plants out there that look like the real thing, and for students who are too busy studying to water them, a fake plant would just the thing you need if you want to decorate your room with them.

If you want something actually life-like and don’t mind taking the time to take care of them, then by all means go get yourself a cute little plant buddy! In fact, if you are someone who finds it hard to take those much-needed breaks when studying, remembering to water your plants can be the perfect way to steer you away from your desk and get your mind off school for a moment. This is one of the few cute dorm room ideas that not only will decorate your room in an aesthetically pleasing way, but also can give you a mental health break!

Jewelry Holders

When it comes to cute dorm room ideas, this decoration is both adorable and productive. We all have at least one or two necklaces in our pack of belongings. This is a great decorative idea that you and your roommate can instantly agree upon. Getting a jewelry holder for both you and your roommates’ necklaces, bracelets, and rings are the perfect way to consolidate space and make room for more cute dorm room ideas you and your roommate can come up with.

Setting up your dorm room is always a fun and exciting time! But when it comes to decorating alongside a roommate, there are always going to be some compromises. These cute dorm decorations are the perfect thing for any pair of roommates that need help coming together to create the perfect dorm room! What did you think of these cute dorm room ideas?
