How to Decorate a Teen Boy's Room With a Soccer Theme

Paint the room’s walls. Opt for something understated and neutral, like beige or off-white, if you plan to make the decorative accessories a big focus in the room. Paint the walls brighter colors to make a bold statement. For example, paint the four walls alternating in his favorite team’s colors. Add a soccer mural to one wall for an artistic touch.

Choose furniture for the teen’s room, selecting items that fit with his lifestyle. Pick a set that matches, such as drawers, a bed and a desk, for continuity in the soccer-themed room. Stainless steel or dark wood are both classic looks that work with any type of themed boy’s room. Incorporate subtle touches of the soccer theme, such as engraving a soccer ball or jersey number on a chair or headboard. Provide a comfortable seating area by placing a soccer ball beanbag on the floor. Use light covers and lamp shades in the shape of soccer balls.

Add accents to the floor. Place an area rug in the shape of a soccer ball near the foot of the bed or in the center of the room. Paint a soccer-related element directly onto the floor if made of wood, such as a logo of a favorite pro team, the number on the teen's jersey or a soccer ball.

Select soccer accessories to display throughout the teen boy's room. Line a wall shelf with soccer trophies, team memorabilia or a collection of soccer balls. Stick miniature soccer balls on the ends of curtain rods. Frame an autographed jersey of the teen’s favorite player and hang it on the wall.

Pick bedding and curtains that fit with the room’s décor. Use team colors instead of soccer prints, which sets a more sophisticated tone for the teen’s room. Stick with colors that match throughout the room.
