Designing a Sports Themed Room

There’s a 50-50 chance that your son is a sports fanatic. What a great way then to adorn his room with sports in mind. Here are some easy tricks for you:

First, choose a sport. Your boy might be crazy with all team sports and using all of them might be a tad too confusing. So pick only one sport to use as the design’s central idea.

For his walls, you have a variety of colors to choose from as you are not restricted to one color of paint. If he likes Arsenal, be sure to have red as your main color theme in the room. You may opt for wallpaper, instead, which has images of his favorite sports team. If you do paint the walls, you may still add borders or stencil images such as a sports scene, goal score, team logo or different balls. You may also have these images in the form of peel and stick decals as well as wallpaper murals. If there isn’t a particular team color to chose from, blue is always a good option for a boy’s sports themed room.

Cover his bed with sheets that show his favored team as well. When you watch a live game, there is a souvenir shop in the stadium where you can buy the team’s memorabilia, and beddings are just some of the items sold. You can also search the internet for online sales. If however there is none, opt instead for the team’s color for his bedsheet, bedcover and pillow covers.

Decorate the room with a sports-themed area rug, or one with his chosen color. Some teams also sell area rugs with their logo on it, so this is a sweet treat. Hope your boy’s team has one.

Hang curtains or window blinds with a color that coincides with the beddings and/or the walls. This makes for a more cohesive look. If you found a fabric with his favorite team’s logo or color and you’re quite handy with the sewing machine, why not give your son a present by making the curtains yourself? It will be so neat!

For the accessories, line up stuffed animals of the team’s mascot, and also pile up pillows which have the team logo. His stuffed animals could be sporting his favorite team jersey. Display these on shelves along the walls. You can get a lot of small balls which you may also display on the shelves. Posters are another great way to decorate the walls. These may be of his favorite star athlete or team. Baseball caps, helmets and trophies he has won may also be lined up along the shelves. He will be very proud to have these in a visible place for all his friends to see. Personalize the room further by displaying photos of him in his sports gear. You may also create a sports image collage by cutting out photos from a sports magazine.

Sports themed room decor is readily available and affordable. Give your son a room he will enjoy being in for a long time.
