    Dorm Wall Decor To Add Pizzazz To Your Side Of The Room!

    As much as you'd like to deny it, it's time to pack those bags and head back to school! Whether you're shacking up on campus in the dorms, going solo in your own apartment, or looking forward to a packed year in the sorority house, those blank walls can look pretty unfriendly. Even if you're not the homesick type, jazzing up your empty wall space can do wonders in making you feel more at home in your new school-year pad, and you're likely to find that even the most cramped or most run-down of places are a whole lot more bearable with a little added personality. Look back on fond memories of last summer while you have new fun times in the fall with a wall photo sleeve, or mark your limited territory over on your side of the tiny dorm room with an initial marquee light fixture. No matter what cool and trendy wall decor you throw up, it may never be a four-star resort, but hey -- it's home! Check the slideshow for some of my favorite fun and quirky wall hang-ups!

    Sometimes, I'm so bored that I can just stare at the wall all day. Which got me thinking, wow- I should really mix things up. I've done some research and come up with some really cute wall decor items - from prints to fun shelves to sconces - and compiled them in this slideshow. The best part? All the items I feature are $99 or less. It's nice to know that you can brighten up a room with a mirrored sunburst or nature-inspired gilded lacquer prints without breaking your design budget. Think of the gorgeous light reflection you'll achieve in your room with a metallic flower mirror. Check out my slideshow for more wall decor that won't break your budget!

    Mirror, Mirror, On The Wall...

    Let's be honest -- we all kind of love checking ourselves out. Whether we're sneaking a peek in the reflection of a street-side window, or openly (well, privately, really) gussying up to dance and sing in front of an imagined-audience-of-many, mirrors play an important part in our lives. Hell, I'm not sure many of us could go a day without seeing a mirror at some point. The best mirrors, however, are ones that are beautiful on their own, without the help of our lovely selves standing in front of them. And the best of mirror-makers are those that consider themselves artists, creating wonderful masterpieces that sometimes seem better fit in a gallery than, say, above your bathroom sink. Turn your home into a gallery that bills your face as the main attraction with the interesting accents that these artists have designed to make these mirrors of our pretty faces. Check out this slideshow to take a peek at some of the coolest mirrors out there!

    Hanging wallpaper in your apartment or house can be a great way to update your stale decor. But who wants the hassle of dealing with the glue, roller and high-priced papers? Save your money and time by using self-adhesive decals to spiff up your pad. The self-proclaimed €œdesign geeks€� at scribbleonwalls.com have a stock of hundreds of designs to stick on walls, ceilings, mirrors, doors and furniture! Pretend you€™re a super hero with larger than life fight noises and word bubbles, or use pretty feminine vine decals for above the couch or bed. Wall graphics are a great modern alternative to paint, wallpaper and posters-- that take about half the time. They're super easy to apply: just remove the decal's backing, smooth it onto the wall, and remove the top coating of clear transfer tape. Bored of your chosen design? You can remove our decals by simply peeling them off the wall without any damage! (The same can't be said about wall paper!) Wall decals range in price, size and awesomeness, and are available at scribbleonwalls.com.
