10 Things Your Maryland Dorm Needs

The time is here -- the time to go back to college! Whether you're an incoming freshman getting ready to perfect your very first dorm room or you're an upperclassman who knows the dorm decor ropes, these things will make your space feel more Maryland-proud and will help you be ready for the year ahead. 

 

1. Deep Creek Lake blanket

Keep yourself comfy and cozy under a blanket that will always remind you of your favorite vacation spot! This blanket doubles as bright, cheerful dorm decor.  

2. Maryland Flag Stuffed Bear

 Who says you're too old for a stuffed animal? This sweet bear will always remind you of your Maryland roots, especially if you've headed out of state for college. Don't you want to give him a hug?

3. Nevermore Art Print

This Poe-themed word art will look great on your dorm's wall! Show off your literary side and love of all things spooky when you add this raven silhouette to your dorm decor.

4. Pagoda Art Print

 If creepy poems from the past aren't your thing, might we suggest this gorgeous illustration instead? This print of the Patterson Park pagoda will look great in any room. 

5. Caramel Popcorn, Fisher's Popcorn

Everybody needs a mid-study session snack, and for a Marylander, what's better than a tub of Fisher's popcorn? It's self contained, delicious, and nostalgic -- the perfect dorm treat.

 

6. Utz Crab Chip Mug

Planning to bring your coffee maker to campus this year? You'll need the right mug, and we think this one, which features the iconic crab chip pattern, will make you smile all school year long. 

7. Maryland Flag Patterned Iced Coffee Cooler

Iced coffee powers college students all over this great state. No matter where you get it from, you love having it on hand for that extra caffeine boost! Keep it nice and cold with this insulated sleeve with a Maryland flag pattern.

 

8. Blue Old Bay Lanyard

 

College life basically requires having a lanyard. Keep your ID, your keys, and your favorite keychains close by with this Old Bay-themed lanyard that you'll actually like wearing all over campus! 

9. Hey Hon Blue Flag

 

A flag is an easy way to add color and personality to those drab dorm walls. If you're going to school in Baltimore or you just miss Charm City, you can't go wrong with this Hey Hon flag! 

 

10. Anchor, Crab and Rope Flag

And if you're in a more nautical mood, we've got just the flag for you. This crab, rope and anchor design is perfect for anyone who wants to show off their love of the sea and the state.
