My University Room

I am now back home in Ireland (after having travelled for 10 hours- we took the ferry from Scotland) and I can tell you, I am KNACKERED but very happy to be home in my own bed now!
Before I started taking my room apart to pack up, I took a few photos just to remind myself of what it looked like in case I ever wanted to look back in the future, and since I know a few people reading may be heading off to university in September/October time and may be starting to think about university accommodation I thought I'd just post these for you to show you what my room looked like in case anyone is interested!
The photos on my pinboard are a mixture of photos of me and my friends as well as a few of my favourites from Tumblr that I got printed at Boots.
I also got these Polaroid-style instagram photos printed at polargram.com which I believe were £12 for 48 prints!
I got these two ornaments as gifts from friends at Christmas and just hung them with a pin :)
At uni I used this heart-shaped photo holder to put my necklaces on so they wouldn't get tangled- and my little cousin bought me this ceramic-heart ornament as a leaving gift when I was heading off to uni.
This is my shelf on the left-hand side of the room that I just kept some hair products and cards and ornaments on! (I always lose the lids for these sorts of things!!)
On the right-hand side I just had some nail-polish, perfumes, hand-creams and what not, then in the middle I had some framed photos of my school friends. The corked jar on the left-hand side is just filled with seaglass I've collected this year at uni!
I got this vintage Coca-Cola tin in a charity shop I used to work in a couple of years ago and I love it so much!! I just use it for a bit of jewellery storage.

As always, hope you are all doing very well!!

    Your uni accommodation is far nicer than mine, I love how you've made it so personal :)

      Yeah we're lucky that the university accommodation where I am isn't too bad! I've seen some really woeful university accommodation on open days before, I don't even know how they'd actually expect someone to live in some of the rooms I've seen, especially for the price they charge you!! xxx

    So so cute! My uni room is a constant state of somewhat controlled chaos!

    What a lovely space! Uni rooms seem to be so stale at first but yours looks very cosy :)

    Your room looks lovely! So much nicer than my first year room, it looked like a total prison cell without all of my stuff in it x

    You have so much in your room yet it doesn't look crowded or cluttered.
    Great Job and good luck for the future :)
