10 Dorm Decorations You Need To Make Your Room Into A Garden Oasis

Dorm decorations have the power to transform your new home into completely different location and space. If you grew up in the countryside, surrounded by plants, trees, and nature, then moving into the city or just away from your backyard can be jarring. Give your dorm a complete transformation and bring the outdoors into your living space! You will feel completely at home in no time at all. Here are 10 dorm decorations you will need to turn your room into the ultimate garden sanctuary.

1. Fake Plants

Just because you love nature does not mean you always have a green thumb. You can still surround yourself with greenery with these fake plants. Don’t worry about watering or the fertilizer because your plants will always stay green and beautiful! You will get the feel of Mother Nature without needing to read up on all your plants’ specific water and sunlight needs. But if you do have the time to care for plants and have a natural green thumb, you should absolutely go for some real plants for your space; they are very beneficial to your space. You just do not need to deprive yourself of a green space if you don’t have the right touch to keep your plants alive.

2. Flower Vine

Greenery isn’t the only kind of plants in gardens. Bring some floral elements into your dorm and it will really feel like a garden oasis. But flowers, especially seasonal flowers, can be even harder than regular plants to keep alive. And for all your efforts, you will only have them for a season and even less if you want to display them in vases or rearrange them around your room. Keep it simple and stick to fake flowers that will last all year long. This floral vine can be draped over any part of your dorm and it will liven up all those dull corners.

3. Wall Mount Plant Holders

Your plants, real or fake, should not be confined to the ground. Surround yourself entirely with plants by hanging them from your walls. Your plants will look so cool when they are draped over your bed or on top of your desk. Do not run out to buy floral or leafy wallpaper when you could be covering your wall with actual plants.

4. Flower Pillow

If your walls are covered in flowers and greenery, you cannot just leave your bed empty. Bring some floral touches to your bed by adding this flower pillow. It is small and delicate so you will not feel like you’re going overboard with your theme; instead, it will just bring more comfort to your bed but in a way that enhances the rest of your decorations.

5. Grass Pen Holder

Your plants do not have to be just decorative. Get this grass pen holder and you will have a useful decoration that goes along with the rest of your theme. It looks so cute to have your pens sticking out from a pot of fake grass and it will be a surprising and simple touch to complete the room. Not to mention, your desk would probably be out-of-theme otherwise.

6. Sunflower Pens

You have a grass pen holder but you do not want just normal pens to go in your pen holder. Adding flower pens on top of your grass pen holder will give the appearance of a real potted plant at your desk except this is a plant that you can actually use for your schoolwork. Your dorm decorations do not have to be obvious. The small and useful touches will do a lot in creating your theme.

Get the look:

7. Hanging Ivy Garland

Small fake plants and rose vines will only cover so much of your room. If you want to really transform your room into a garden, you will want to buy this hanging ivy garland. These ivy garlands will cover a large amount of space and instantly give your room the outdoorsy vibe that simple, small touches cannot.

8. Tree Jewelry Stand

Many jewelry stands are made of modern and chrome but those elements would clash with your theme. Get a nice jewelry stand that not only matches the rest of your dorm decorations but also reminds you of nature. This jewelry stand looks like a healthy and strong tree. It will remind you of all the days that you spent laying under the big tree in your backyard. This big tree will be a beautiful display on its own but it can also keep all your earrings, bracelets, and rings safe and on display.

9. Tree Bark Coasters

Another way to bring the trees into your new home would be these awesome tree bark coasters. They look like little tree stumps. These coasters will keep your surfaces clean of stains while looking absolutely gorgeous in your room.

Get the look:

10. Leaf Garland Fairy Lights

Now that your room is set up, you can add some mood lighting to your room. These leaf garland fairy lights will blend in with your ivy garland or rose vines. It will look so pretty in your room to have little lights among your leaves and plants and show off all the hard work you put into creating this atmosphere.
