Shop Story

Teens will love these organic cotton comforters, trendy printed sheets, and timeless dishes.

 

Maybe your college-bound kid is already so nostalgic, she won’t part with her My Little Pony bedspread. But we’re willing to bet that a whole lot of teens out there are ready to trade in their childhood bedroom décor for something a little more grown-up, especially if they’re setting out for their first dorm rooms. And for those kids (and their parents) the Gap Home Collection at Walmart couldn’t have debuted at a better time.

 

The aesthetic you know well from Gap—“timeless American style” as Walmart.com puts it—is on full display in the bedding, bath, décor, and tabletop products available only on the retailer’s site. By which we mean cool blues that evoke denim, soothing yellows, playful pinks, and prints that are stylish now, yet won’t look dated in a few years. If your kid has just reached the age in which they’re ready to cast off the TV-character themes, dinosaurs, cars, and unicorns adorning their beds and bathrooms, Gap Home offers some pretty ideal replacements.

 

Though none of the sheet sets include those extra-long fitted twin sheets some dorm mattresses require, there are many other products that are well-suited to dorm living. The comforters have a cozy feel of home, plus they’re filled with 75 percent recycled material to please your eco-conscious youngsters. The 100 percent organic cotton towel sets are pretty, yet so affordable, they won’t feel terrible if one disappears during the school year. And with this attractive Gap Home dish set, your kid may just want to cook at home once in a while instead of going out for a slice.

 

Below are some of our favorite picks for teens from the Gap Home Collection at Walmart.
