You’ve probably seen other Northwood dorm tours, but I promise you’ve never seen one like this. Lily Pratt ’26 is the definition of Christmas spirit—something you can see instantly when you walk into her room.
Most students bring a small tree or a holiday blanket from home to get into the festive mood, but Pratt goes all out. Starting with her bed, she has Christmas-themed sheets, pillows, and a blanket. Even her window is covered in cheerful holiday stickers.
Next is a small corner of her room that most people might overlook—but not Lily. She has transformed it into its own mini-Christmas display. There’s another holiday pillow and blanket, plus a wall decoration made of red and white balls arranged in the shape of a tree. On her shelf sit some Christmas-themed stuffed animals, a tiny red-and-green tree, and—if you look closely—Christmas hair clips tucked in as part of the décor.
Her desk area is just as festive. Light up Snowflakes along with twinkling Christmas lights and a few cheerful signs. Draped over her chair is yet another Christmas blanket. Sitting proudly on her desk is her favorite decoration: her Christmas countdown. She loves it because every morning she wakes up and moves it one day closer to the big day.
Pratt has always loved Christmas; she loves spending the season with her friends here at school, and loves that for the big day, she gets to go home and spend it with her loved ones and family. Her room reflects that excitement everywhere you look: decorations across the walls, a Santa hat hanging up, lights around the room, and a paper chain stretched across her ceiling—a favorite among her friends and dormmates.
One thing is sure: Lily Pratt loves Christmas and knows how to deck her dorm!
