Dorm Room Essentials From JCPenney
A college dorm room tends to be small and needs to fulfill a lot of roles. Students use it as a bedroom, a place to study, and a room for entertaining friends and family when they visit. It needs to be homely and practical, and at JCPenney we have a selection of dorm room essentials that can turn a small room into a multifunctional and multipurpose palace.
We have school-specific dorm room accessories from the likes of Alabama Crimson Tide and the Tennessee Volunteers or you can browse our Back To School Shop where you can find practical items that make studying and working easier. You can also choose from our catalog of dorm furniture and dorm bedding to ensure that you have a great looking and functional decor.
Create A Comfortable Living Environment With Dorm Essentials
College dorm essentials include dorm bedding, seating, and soft furnishings. These essential living items allow you to create a comfortable living environment - a home from home. Inexpensive items like cushions and throws, as well as artwork for the wall, enable you to personalize a room and improve the existing decor.
Space comes at a premium in dorm rooms. Every item needs to serve some purpose, while items like backrests provide you with comfortable seating without having to take up room with additional chairs. Couple a backrest with a cushion or two and you can essentially create a comfortable armchair and in virtually any style you like.

College life isn't all work and sleep, and you will need clothing to match your style. Wear your school logo with clothes from brands like Alabama Crimson Tide, and fill your wardrobe with essentials from Juniors Apparel. We also stock brands like Sephora, offering makeup, skincare, beauty, and bath products that are inexpensive but great quality.
