How to Make a Basketball Sports Theme Bedroom

Using a basketball-theme is a great way to personalize a bedroom for a sports lover -- whether it be for a child, teen or adult. With so many choices and combinations, transforming a bedroom into one with a basketball theme may seem overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be. A few basketball-themed room ideas can get your thoughts in motion and may even spur a completely new and exciting idea of your own.

Instructions

    • 1

      Paint the walls using your favorite team's colors. Optional ideas for the walls include a mural or vinyl decal of your team's emblem or basketball star.

    • 2

      Hang accessories on the walls that can include a basketball clock, coat rack and mini basketball hoops that can be found in most toy stores.

    • 3

      Refinish a wood floor to match the color of most basketball hardwood floors. If your budget allows, hire a professional to paint a replica of your favorite basketball team's court. A basketball-styled area rug is a good substitute if you're looking to spend less on the floor.

      Apply basketball-themed bedding to the mattress. This can be a generic basketball pattern or one that depicts your favorites team. Other bedding accents could include basketball curtains and lamps.

      Add other small accents to round out the decor. Ideas include light switch covers, posters, bobbleheads, pennants and other small pieces of basketball memorabilia.
