How To Do College Teams Room Decor

Summer temperatures are starting to cool down, shopping for back to school bargains begins, and the best part of all – FOOTBALL season! Whether your child is starting kindergarten, middle school, high school, or heading to college, we all get to enjoy the excitement of the back to school season.

Is your child staying in their current room or moving to a new room? This time of year always feels like a time to reorganize or redecorate. The easiest way to freshen a room is to bring in some throw pillows. Here are some sports-themed or conversation starter pillows if you want something different than just a coordinating color.

Deck Your Walls with School Spirit

If you are tired of plain walls, there are some ideas for wall decals (which can be ordered for most school logos and mascots), and cute framed art and painted, wood mascots that can adorn your walls. One of the highlights of using a decal is if you change your mind about your favorite mascot or are moving rooms, you can pull it down and move it to another spot.

Read Me (If You Need Storage)

But, really, who doesn’t need extra storage space? These are some ideas to create space under the bed, a pocket organizer that hangs from the side of the bed, or up-cycling milk crates to create adorable storage containers that can also serve as an ottoman. Everyone always needs extra seating space and storage.

• Shop Milk Crate Seat Toppers
• Shop Bed Risers with Outlets

Those bed risers are great for lifting the bed, creating taller storage space underneath it and increasing your outlet access. You can never have too many electric outlets in a room.

Pallets Make Great Furniture

If you don’t have a frame for your bed, it’s okay. Use wooden pallets. Our hanger headboards can be hung at any height so you can easily pair with any bed frame, even pallets.

In the link for the pallet bed, there are many other ideas and instructions for things you can create for your room. Pallets are very versatile and are free. It will cost you gas to retrieve them in your vehicle and your muscle power to carry them to your room. Get 19 more DIY pallet ideas for your home.

Headboards Unite!

The best way to pull your room together is to order one of our Barn Walls headboards. There are many colors (solid or mixed) and sizes (twin to California king), as well as hanging verses leaning installation to choose from to make your new room feel just like home.

Both styles of headboard mount directly to the wall making them perfect for tight spaces like dorm rooms. And our leaner is easy remove at the end of the year leaving no holes in the wall!

In this article, we’ve showcased how our solid color headboards coordinate with many schools’ colors and mascots making them perfect for college teams room decor. But if you prefer to make a statement (and show how much you love your team), use our Custom Headboard Tool to build a mix in your school colors.
