If you’re headed off to college this year and are moving into the dorms, I’m sure you’re on the hunt for all of the cute dorm things! Dorms can be hard to decorate since you have such a small space to work with (and so much to pack in), and some of the decor out there can be a little cheesy. I spent some time looking through many different sites to put together all of the dorm room essentials that are actually cute! These products are functional and things you’ll use, but are still aesthetic and will ultimately leave you with a dorm room you love!

Disco Mushroom

This disco ball mushroom is not only cute but also leaves little light specs around your room when the light hits it. So pretty!

Mini Kettle

If you plan to make tea, coffee (or cup of noodles…) in your room, this kettle is perfect. It also is in a smaller size so it won’t take up too much space.

Utility Cart

Keep your dorm organized with this simple utility cart! Fits perfectly in a corner and is only $40.

Personal Fan

A fan is always nice to have for some extra air circulation and I like the vintage look of this one!

Cordless Lamp

Since this lamp is cordless, it can easily be moved anywhere, perfect for a dorm room!

Portable Touch Screen TV

This monitor is basically a giant, portable iPad that can work as a television – no watching shows on laptops here!

Mini Fridge

A mini fridge is an absolute must in a dorm room, and this one is too cute!

Smiley Checkered Blanket

You know I love anything personalized and this blanket is a cozy addition you can make your own!

Alarm Clock

This alarm clock doubles as a phone charger and mirror!

Bean Bag

If you have a little extra space to work with, this bean bag looks so cozy and is under $100.
