Sleep is so incredibly important for our wellbeing especially if you’re a student. Not just the quantity of sleep but also the quality of sleep that you get is extremely important. Being away from home and in a new environment such as your dorm can make it difficult to sleep. Many of us struggle with anxiety when we’re away from home, family and all of our comforts. This anxiety can be especially present at night time when you’re trying to sleep. Which is the worst time for your mind to be racing! 

This is why making your dorm comfortable is such an important factor for your mental health, physical health and your overall well being.

One of the best ways to make your dorm more comfortable and to help yourself relax for a better night's sleep is to have ultra soft bed sheets! Having soft and comfortable bedding makes all the difference, it's such a little thing that can change your whole sleeping routine!

Having cute and cozy slippers is definitely an essential for lounging around in your dorm! There is nothing better and more relaxing than wearing matching pjs and aesthetic slippers. They can completely elevate your look and relaxation! Pop them on after a relaxing shower or before you get up to start your morning routine. We have lots of different slippers for you to choose from that will suit almost any aesthetic/vibe!

Last but not least on our list, pretty bedding sets! Having pretty and aesthetic bedding sets is key to making your dorm more cute and homey! The key to feeling happy and relaxed in your dorm is definitely to make your space more you! Personalize your dorm with your favorite colors and patterns, relax with our super soft bed sheets!

Layering blankets not only adds warmth but also enhances the visual appeal of your dorm room. Our selection of plush throw blankets can be draped over the bed or placed on a reading chair, adding both comfort and style.

Chances are your dorm is probably pretty small and you're lacking space for all your things from home, your new things and all your books for school. This is why having lots of storage and organizers in your dorm room is so incredibly important. Being a student you have lots of stuff! And all of that stuff has to go somewhere but you shouldn't have to sacrifice your dorm room aesthetic just so you can store your things!

Keeping a tidy and organized space is so important for your mental health, when your life is busy and you have a lot going on in your mind the last thing you need is to come home to your dorm and see everything laying all over the place. This can add even more unnecessary stress onto your life which can then affect your work and studies. So having an unorganized space has a butterfly effect on pretty much everything in your academic life.

Getting out of bed after having the best and most comfortable sleep can be so hard! Especially when staying tucked up in your warm and cozy EverLasting bedding seems much more enjoyable. Having cold floors definitely doesn’t help you want to get out of bed! This is why having a little rug next to your bed can be so beneficial in your morning routine. Plus it can brighten up your dorm and make the place more colorful and fun!

Having comfortable pajamas/loungewear is definitely an essential for relaxing in your dorm! There is nothing better than coming home after a long day and slipping into something comfortable and cozy.

Having matching or aesthetic pjs can completely elevate your confidence and make you feel even better about yourself!

When being a student, taking time every day to relax and focus on yourself is so important. With all the work you have to put into your academics, sometimes you may neglect yourself and your own wellbeing. But actively trying to look after your mental health will in short help you succeed in your studies even more as you wont be as stressed and overwhelmed.

Navigating the limited space of a college dorm requires smart solutions, and small space furniture is a must. Multi-functional items like foldable chairs, wall-mounted desks, and modular storage units maximize the utility of a confined area. These space-saving pieces help create a functional living environment where you can study, socialize, and relax without feeling cramped. 

Set the mood just right in your dorm with some pretty ambient lighting! Lighting has such an impact on our mood and relaxation. Studies have shown that warm lighting can positively impact our mood by promoting feelings of happiness and contentment, while cool light creates a more energetic and vibrant atmosphere. This is why what lighting you choose is incredibly important!

Personally we love warm lighting and feeling cozy and relaxed but we sell both warm and cool lighting! Give your dorm the perfect vibe/atmosphere with cute and aesthetic lamps!

As a student you may be tempted to order all your meals in or just eat microwave meals all the time, for convenience. Having home cooked meals is so incredibly important for your well being! Cooking your own meals can help with the stress that may build up throughout the day as it can take your mind off anything that has stressed/worried you. Knowing how to cook is also a vital life skill going into adulthood, so the more you cook the better you will get at it! Cooking your own food also ensures that you get all the things that your body needs to thrive, plus you can see exactly what's going into your food. 

Having cute and aesthetic kitchen essentials will help motivate you to do more cooking if you struggle with mustering up the energy to do so.

Invite some of your friends over to your dorm and have a dinner/study party! You can find lots of affordable and simple recipes online or you can challenge yourselves and try to make a more difficult dish. Regardless of what you decide to cook, having pretty kitchen essentials will definitely make it more fun and enjoyable!
