Creative Decorating Ideas For A Teen Boy Room

By Sherrie Le Masurier

teen boy room Q I am looking for some good ideas for making over the room of my active teenage son. Do you have any teen boy room decor or theme ideas that would be appropriate for a teen boy room?

When it comes to teen boy room ideas, you’ve come to the right place. Teen boy room decor and teen boy room theme ideas are made easy once you’ve taken your son’s interests and personality into account and then made sure you’ve put a mature spin on it.

To help get you started here are a few teen boy room ideas as well as some general teen boy room decor tips that will hopefully inspire some thoughts of your own.

Camouflage

Many male teenagers love the camouflage look. If your son is one of them salute the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines by creating a camouflage teen boy room theme that is supported by desert colors on the walls, coordinating bedding, window treatments and area rug.

Wilderness camp

If your son loves camping and the great outdoors consider a wilderness camp teen boy room theme. Use wallpaper borders or stencils which features bears, moose, or fish.

Plaid window treatments and flannel bedding and accessories like old fishing rods and nets hung on your son’s walls support the rustic theme and help bring the look of this teen room together.

Consider also log or pine beds, a shadow box of fishing lures, and photos of outdoor adventures in frames decorated in natural materials like pine cones, sticks and leaves.

A mural that depicts a wilderness theme would also be a nice complement to this teen boy room theme.

All sports

What teenager doesn’t love sports? Depending on your son’s preferences you could go with a contemporary or vintage sports teen boy room theme.

A teen boy room with a sports theme is easily accomplished by searching out sporting equipment from thrift shops and auctions and using a comforter or duvet cover which features things like classic baseball uniform pinstripes or basic colors like tan, hunter green, burgundy and dark blue.

You can also use old T-shirts featuring logos from favorite teams to make throw pillows. Old fashioned felt pennants, a collection of used sports equipment, a display shelf of trophies and framed vintage team photos are some great teen boy room accessory ideas.

Other teen boy room decor ideas include:

  • A collage of sports trading cards and ticket stubs.
  • Displaying game balls in a net above your son’s bed.
  • Placing a throw or blanket in your teen’s favorite team colors at the foot of his bed or on an occasional chair.
  • A basketball net hung over a laundry hamper.
  • Hanging favorite ball caps on an old painted ladder is a great teen boy room idea whether or not your son’s room features a sports theme.
  • A curtain rod with tennis or baseball finials.
  • Using a traditional ‘school’ locker (available in specialty catalogs) as a durable bedside bookshelf.
