WALL DECOR FOR DORM ROOMS:
1. Bulletin board & posters
Copy this decor:
If you want to spend minimal time on your dorm room wall decor, a bulletin board is a classic option that looks really good. Then, you can fill your bulletin board with whatever you want (or switch up what’s on it as soon as you get bored).
2. Polaroids & fairy lights
Copy this look:
Hanging polaroids seems to be one of the favourite ideas on wall decor Pinterest has to offer. Layering strings of polaroids on your wall and putting up some fairy lights takes next to no time but certainly will make your dorm room that much cozier.
3. Photo grid & hanging plants
Copy this look:
I seriously don’t believe anyone who says they don’t like this wall decor for dorm rooms. How can you not love it?! Putting up hanging plants is so simple, and a photo grid looks so organized and aesthetically pleasing.
4. Floral wall decor
Copy this look:
This look is a little more unique, but of course looks so good. If you’re a plant lover or just enjoy a good pop of colour, flowers are the perfect way to go. Plus, hanging a big mirror like this will make your dorm room feel a little bigger.
The artificial flowers I’ve linked come in a bouquet, but you can just cut the stems so that they’re individual flowers you can hang. Or, dry out real flowers and hang those!
5. Simple & minimalistic
Copy this look:
If you’re more of the minimalist type and want your wall decor cheap, simply hanging a map is a great way to add a little flavour to your room while keeping it simple.
6. Moon Phases Wall Decor
Copy this look:
Are you not obsessed with that shelf?! The combo of the plants, moon phases, macrame and gold frames just works so well together. This is one idea of wall decor for dorm rooms that you definitely won’t get tired of.
7. Colorful & neon
Copy this look:
If you have a bit more of a vibrant personality and want a room that reflects that side of you, why not go all out and make it super bright and fun?! Fun posters like this will keep you in a good mood. You can even throw in some unique wall decor paintings — and aren’t those neon lights so cool?!
8. Polaroid grid & macrame
Copy this look:
I’m obsessed with how neat and tidy this looks. Having a bunch of polaroids like this means that your dorm decor will be super personal to you and keep your mind on all the people and things you love 🙂
9. Real life Pinterest board
Copy this look:
This wall decor for dorm rooms is SO easy to copy. Either grab one of the collage sets I’ve linked above, or you can DIY it.
How?
Literally just scroll through Pinterest for images that you find inspiring and print them all out and then throw them together on your wall for a collage like this! This decoration is so easy and will be really personal to your taste.
10. Photo grid panel
Copy this look:
I saw grids like this in my friend’s room with photos and inspirational quotes clipped to them and I thought it was insanely cute and such a good idea! She told me how she changes up the photos every couple of weeks when she gets tired of them or when she finds something new that she wants on her wall. So easy!
If you get bored of decor easily, then you’ll love the convenience of these photo grids and your friends who come to your room will be obsessed (like I was).
11. Boho decor
Copy this look:
This decor combines a few of the ideas I’ve already mentioned, but don’t they look so good together for a boho room?! I love the idea of the eucalyptus garlands and fairy lights on the ceiling, and the combo of the macrame and the colours of the flowers make this such a simple but gorgeous room.
12. Tapestry
Copy this look:
One of the most popular dorm room wall decor ideas is hanging up a nice tapestry. This is so easy to do but will make your room look so unique.
13. Vinyl Records Wall
Copy this look:
This has got to be one of the best ideas out there. If you’re a music lover, what better way to honour your fave artists than by making a vinyl wall? Hanging vinyl records and album covers is such a great way to display your personality and your favourite inspiration!
