Mermaid Dream Room & Dorm Decor

Whether you’re headed off to college or redecorating your bedroom, this post has got you covered on the cutest mermaid home goods to bring a little magic to your space! From clamshell seating & sparkly storage, to mermaid wall decor & ambiance lighting, you’re sure to check a few must-haves off your list!

Scalloped Shell Mermaid Chair

Swap out that boring old desk chair for a “scalloped shell” mermaid’s throne! Maybe you’ll actually get some work done if you were sitting in the chair mermaids dream of… This velvet chair comes in several colors and you can opt to get it with metal legs or as a swivel chair with wheels. It definitely brings a hint of mermaid to any dorm bedroom!

Mermaid Throw Pillows

Wouldn’t you think my collection’s complete? NO! I always want more pillows!! 🤩 I am obsessed with the little sea shell & starfish pillows – I’ll take 5 of each for my mermaid room, please! And I love the way the mermaid tail plush pillow looks tucked into a bed or popping out from a couch. As for the Mermaid Pusheen, you’re never too old for stuffed animals- especially if they fit your aesthetic!

Mermaid Plushies

There’s no better way to say I am brave and ready for college than by showing up with your emotional support stuffed animal… or all of your childhood plushies!  If you have more squishmallows than you can fit on your bed, you may consider getting a storage hammock. You can hang it in one corner of your room and fill it with all your plushies like a fishnet. Its the perfect way to keep your space tidy while displaying all your plushies and give you easy access to them.

Mermaid Aesthetic Mood-Setters

It’s a fact: lighting changes the mood! And if you’re renting or living in a dorm where painting is not an option, colored LED lights are the perfect way to change up your color scheme to fit your aesthetic! Fairy Light wall curtains are a great way to decorate a large amount of wall space on a budget. These blue, purple, & pink ombre hue lights give me dreamy mermaid grotto vibes. A wave projector night light is another great option for instant under-the-sea ambiance.

Mermaid Trinket Dish & Night Light

I have the flat mermaid tail plate (in teal) on my desk as a “catch-all” dish for small items that are sorta still in-use or are en-route to being put away, like earrings, memory cards, sewing needles, etc. The clam dish is another great catch-all for jewelry! I keep mine in my bathroom, but it would also fit nicely on a nightstand next to your bed. The little pearl inside the clam lights up so it can double as a night light!

Mermaid Tail Jewelry Dish

These mermaid tail jewelry dishes are simply adorable! Hold rings in the dish, drape chains & bracelets from the tail!

Mermaid Curtains

Most rooms come with a window now a days, why not get some mermaid curtains? I chose these styles because the ruffles reminded me of jellyfish or seaweed!
