We Asked, and They Listened ...

Back in August we posted here about some lovely wall art ideas for the home of any Demon Deacon fan. Someone on Etsy was listening, because here we have Wake Forest alphabet art - using campus architectural features as the letters! This is pretty thrilling news for us here at Chic Deac.

The Yellow Hues of Paris

We love this series of 9 pictures from Paris. Called "It Just Happened," all of the pictures feature a yellow highlight found in the City of Lights. Sold here on Etsy for $36, we think this could be a very chic feature in your home, apartment or dorm room.




The seller is also producing these "Sweetness and Light" prints which are inspired by the famous gothic rose windows at Notre Dame. This is also a great gift if you know anyone who has studied abroad or wants to study abroad in Paris. Check it out here for $26.

Chic Deac Bedroom (Pt. 3)

As a little bit of inspiration for move-in day (which is better than Christmas on this campus) -

Check out this alphabet art. You can spell any word and test out the look of it in their demo feature. We tried Wake and thought it would be perfect for your house or dorm room!

Chic Deac Bedroom (Pt. 2)

Alright, Class of 2014 - here is another bedroom decorating idea. The color scheme (obviously) is a black and butter yellow. I started with inspiration from some Springmaid bedding from Target. It's simple and bright, which means it will cheer up your living space without adding too much clutter.

My favorite accent of this bedding is the Daisy pillow embroidery. Just like ruffles and stitched-on flowers are on every shirt at the mall, you can find this adorable detail on bedding as well. The Target website has the bedding on sale this week (for less than $70!). It says the pillow is out of stock, but I saw one in the store just the other day.

The other pieces here are both from Pottery Barn Teen. The dry erase board is actually a wall decal (meaning it will stick to the wall easily, without the mess of trying to hang something up). Think about how helpful this will be - knowing when your homework is due, who you're meeting up with for lunch and when the big game is! The study lamp is also very cute - it's always nice to have a little touch of polka dots.

Speaking of polka dots - check out this amazing border from PB Teen. Getting a few rolls of this would make your room feel so much homier. You could put it mid-level, like a chair rail, or at the top of the room. This is a great way to tie the entire room together.


I adore these monogram initial pillows. Just imagine the black and white one atop the daisy bedding. It would be perfect!


Lastly, I think these wire letters are an incredible dorm room decoration.


Hanging up your entire name might be a bit much, so think about getting one and putting it above your bed. At $15, this is an awesome and cheap way to warm up your blank walls. This is a creative way to display pictures and add another interesting element to your new room!
