8 Dorm Room Decorations for Students

Fresher or not – decorating your dorm is always fun. It allows you to add your own style and personality to settle you into your uni accommodation and make you feel more at home. Even though keeping a small living space tidy can be tough, it doesn’t mean it can’t be turned into something that’s truly yours. From cute cushions to air-purifying plants, we’ve rounded up a few ideas to make your room shine!

Plants

Did you know that being in nature is proven to reduce anger, fear and stress? So why not add some green plants into your room? We recommend our bonsai tree or an air purifying peace lily. They will add some atmosphere to your room and improve your wellbeing with fresh oxygen – perfect for those hungover mornings or early starts.
