We are happy to announce that we will once again be providing two $500 scholarships this year that winners can use toward tuition, books, room & board, dorm decor, or any other college-related expenses.
Current and incoming college students can apply by posting a creative piece on Facebook or by writing an essay and submitting it via email.
Ways to Apply:
1. Design a home decor advertisement as if it will be featured in a magazine. The design should be themed around your favorite holiday and can be a design for a bedroom, living room, home office or bathroom. You can use any software you like (Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.) and it can be hand drawn or designed as graphics. At least one Lush Decor product should be featured in the piece (feel free to borrow images from our website for this purpose). Once completed, create a post on your Facebook page and title it Lush Decor Scholarship Submission and tag @lushdecorhome so we can find it easily. One winner will be awarded the scholarship fund of $500. The winner and his or her submission may be featured on our social media pages and/or website.

2. Write an essay explaining how your thoughts around interior design and decorating have changed over the years. For example, has it become a bigger part of your life; have your tastes changed; have you gone from decorating as a fun hobby to a paid side hustle as a consultant for others? Feel free to use images or graphics to prove points or further explain stories. The essay should be at least 350 words (max 1500 words) and use no more than 5 images to count as a submission. Submit your essay via email to admin@lushdecor.com. You can attach the essay as a Word or PDF file (attachment is preferred), or you can submit it in the body of the email. If you submit a Google Docs link, please make sure proper permissions are granted. One winner will be awarded the scholarship fund of $500. The winner and his or her submission may be featured on our social media pages and/or website.
The deadline to apply is Friday, July 31. Only one application per person. A team of reviewers at Triangle Home Fashions will choose one winner from each entry type. Applications will be thoroughly reviewed beginning the week of August 3. Winners will be contacted directly the week of August 17.
Eligibility – All current and incoming college students who are at least 18 years of age and reside in USA, excluding employees and their immediate family members, are eligible to apply no matter their major, school, etc. This includes undergraduate and graduate students. Winners will be asked to show proof of enrollment as well as provide a valid SSN before we mail the scholarship funds. If you applied last year and were not selected, you are eligible. If you have previously won a scholarship from us, you are not eligible to win again.
If you have questions about this scholarship, including the rules, how to apply or how winners are chosen, please contact Kim at admin@lushdecor.com.
