Create the ultimate homework area with these fun back to school study room decor ideas! I don’t know about you, but I can always study better when I’m surrounded by inspiring decor, comfy chairs and fun lighting. It just puts me in the right mood! Our favorite study room decor items are perfect for kids and moms going back to school! Don’t worry, you don’t need an entire room dedicated to studying for these items to work. I do suggest carving out a nook that is just used for homework and reading, though. That way, when you or your child go to that area of your house, it tells your brain that it’s time to get down to work!

Dry Erase World Map Wall Decal
We reviewed these super cute WallPop Maps over on our sister site, MyKidsGuide. They not only make great back to school study room decor ideas, but they’re also perfect for helping teach your kids geography. Choose from world maps, US maps or both! My son and I love to play “what country am I thinking of” with the world map, using clues on the map. The WallPop maps are quite large and full of stunning detail.
Linea Walnut Desk
While you can easily get an inexpensive particle board desk to use as a study surface, why not opt for something a little more decorative. I love the simple design of this Linea Walnut Desk. It’s a bit pricier than a particle wood desk because it’s actually made from real wood. This, of course, means it will last much longer! Plus, you just need to attach the legs to complete the assembly!
Fun Geometric Desk Lamp
You can’t study without light, can you? Desk lamps are the perfect opportunity to bring in some cute study room decor while also being practical. If you’re working with a small space, decorating with a purpose is a must. I love the colors in Gentle Rays desk lamp, but you can go with just about any style as long as it inspires you to study!
Locker Shelves
I am kind of addicted to browsing on Pottery Barn Kids! Aren’t these locker shelves adorable? They’re perfect for storing back to school supplies to help with homework time. Plus, kids have a handy place to hang their backpack and jacket. No more searching for lost gear in the morning! I love anything that makes my mornings easier, since I’m barely awake when I take my son to the bus!
LOL Red Lounge Fabric Chair
This is definitely a bit of a splurge item, but doesn’t it look like the perfect place to do some reading? It has foam-filled back and seat cushions for the ultimate comfy spot! The low center of gravity makes it more stable, so you don’t have to worry about your kids falling over in it. With a son as active as mine, that’s always a concern!
Periodic Table Clock
Keep track of time with this fun and practical periodic table clock. I was horrible at chemistry and never could remember all the elements. Even if your kids are younger, every time they look at the clock, they’ll get more exposure to the table.
That lounge chair is out of this world! I Will need to give that one a try – looks really good!
Brilliant ideas – my children go back to school in September, so we are enjoying the summer holidays together. I love the chair and the Wall Map. Kaz
some great ideas u have here … i just remember the joy for me to going back to school.

I love that chair! Would love to have that in office or on my worktable at home. These decors will help energize kids to study their lessons. Haha!
Those locker shelves are very cool! I wouldn’t mind having some of those in a game room. :)
This is cute decor. I like the red chair even though it’s interesting looking.
Those lockers are awesome. I also the the chair. I have heard they are actually quite comfortable. Love the pattern on the lamp. Great ideas.
These are cute things! I like those lockers and that chair pod, the lamp shade I’d actually use in my office and I love maps in kids rooms so they can learn about a place on the map.
I’do like to have a designated study area. I would definitely want a map there too.
I would love to have the wall decal map, it would be great to put in our family room! Thanks for sharing this.
That chair is awesome! I might have to get this for myself :) My wife would love that clock too since she was a chem major.
These are gorgeous. I love the lamp shade. It would look great in the twins’ room.
I want every one of these! My son is starting school in September and I’m already thinking about how we can upgrade his bedroom!
I don’t think I can pick a favorite. I think the lockers are probably the coolest but the dry erase map is a great tool for learning.
Wow this is awesome the periodic table is fantastic, and I’m sure we could use all of these items at our house!
