Ways to make your room your sanctuary

Your room is your haven and let's face it we're all spending A LOT of time in this one place at the mo. You need it to be a great place to study and wind down. Whether you’re into a sleek look or loveee maximalism and colour, here are some easy and affordable ways to spruce up your room.

Prints and posters

Nothing makes a space feel more like your own than adding your personality to it and one of the easiest ways to do that is to add prints and posters to the area. It could be your favourite motivational quote or a quirky poster, find the vibe that fits you and start personalising your space!

All of the prints pictured above are from Not On The High Street!

All of the lights

Lighting is EVERYTHING when it comes to setting the vibe in your room. From the student staple of fairy lights to quirky table lamps, there’s so much to choose from. Urban Outfitters have a really great selection this szn that’ll have all of your guests talking.

Become a plant parent

There are so many benefits to having plants in your room; they purify the space, make you feel calmer and closer to nature and research shows their presence can boost productivity, concentration and creativity. Sounds good, right? Even if you’ve killed every single plant you’ve ever owned there’s still hope for you! Flying Flowers has some great plants that take minimal effort. Oh, and make sure you use UNiDAYS for a 20% discount.

Get organised

Nothing is more stressful than entering into a messy room and, even worse, trying to study on a messy desk. If you’re the kind of person to naturally just chuck stuff wherever, then getting a desk tidy or simple organisational accessories like pen pots can really make this easier for you. I Want One Of Those (IWOOT) has some great storage and filing products, and the best part is some of them are really cute and personal so your style can still shine through.
