1. Pixie Lights


There are many types of cute lights that you can pick out and hang up but there is a reason that people are picking pixie over any other type of light. The main reason is that the light itself is relatively small and you usually get a longer foot range with this type. Another good reason to pick pixie lights over any other type is that the wiring is thinner so you can get the small clothespins and hang up pictures and stuff.

​2. A Tapestry


Tapestries have just about become the number one item on a dorm room shopping list. This is just to put on your wall next to or behind your bed and it gives your room a pop of color and it can make your room feel more cozy and homey.

Whether it is your comforter or a nice big rug to go under your bed it doesn't matter you just need it. The most popular furry item is a rug that some people hang over the back of their desk chair.

4. Curtains


This trend is slowly rising and it is very cute. Put curtains under your lofted up bed that way if you want to study or just chill under there you can have some sense of privacy (if you have a roommate) or it just looks super cute clipped back with a little bit showing out.
