Bohemian College Apartment Bedroom Ideas 

Bohemian bedrooms are my personal favorite decor style. Boho is a decor style that you will be able to easily modify to match your personal style. 

You can keep your bohemian decor neutral by focusing on browns, taupes, and greens. Or you can add pops of colors such as peaches, reds, and light blues to make things more fun.  

If you want to pull off this trendy look, here are a few tips to keep in mind. 

1. Mix and match textures 

Adding woven baskets, rugs, and wall decor can really transform your space and brings your boho bedroom to life. 

2. Keep things light and bright

If you really want to amplify your boho bedroom, avoid using too many dark colors. 

3. Plant’s will be your BFF 

You can’t go wrong with too many plants in a bohemian bedroom. You have the option to incorporate real plants, fake plants, or both into your room. It just depends on your preference!

Here are some of my favorite plants that would great in your boho bedroom.

  • Fiddle Leaf Fig 
  • Ferns 
  • Taro Plants

Rustic College Apartment Bedroom Ideas

Rustic bedrooms are warm and earthy bedroom styles. Woods and whites give this decor style a cozy cabin-like vibe that can’t be beaten. 

If you really want to emphasize the cabin feel, go heavier with wood selections. If you are going for a “hint of cabin” feel, keep things white and bright and touches of woods here and there. 

Here are some additional decorating tips to keep in mind when recreating a rustic apartment bedroom: 

1.  Use Furs to add more texture 

Pieces like fur rugs, pillows, and blankets can make your rustic bedroom is a great way to add texture and make your room feel more chic!

2. Stick to neutral colors 

Sticking to whites, creams, and browns are going to be your best bet. However, if you just can’t resist the urge to add a little color to your room, keep it simple with just one color in one area of your room (ex. Throw pillows on your bed).
