How to: make your uni room feel like home

When you first move to uni it can sometimes be hard to make your room feel homely. It may have taken me three  years and copious amounts of blu-tac but I think I have finally done it! I love posts like this (mainly because I am massively nosey) but also because I like getting inspiration from other people, so maybe this will inspire one of you.

This is probably my favourite area of the room, mostly because I am always tired and love to sleep! The lights around my bed are stuck up with blu-tac, as are the photos and the little bird is hanging on a hook that was already in the wall.

 On my bedside table I have scented candles. The lavender helps me get to sleep which can often be very hard in a noisy student house, but I also think they look pretty. 

I also have a poster, a full length mirror and this cute bunting which my mum's friend made for me.This is stuck up with pins. Obviously some landlords wouldn't allow this but I have been quite lucky with mine.

This is my dressing table/chest of draws area. I did a DIY post on how to make the blue and cream drawers here

 This jewellery hanger is from Pia, I love it, and it is definitely better than the horrible plastic bag that my necklaces were in before.

Last but not least is my notice board, I basically stick any old bits and pieces in here but I think it has ended up looking quite cool. 

I obviously have a desk area as well, but I am in the midst of essay writing so it is a total mess. No one is going to want to see a picture of a bunch of law textbooks so I will leave that to your imagination!

Feel free to leave a comment, I would love to know what people think/if anyone even reads my posts. Haha.
