Instructions

    • 1

      Paint your walls in a neutral or off-white color and then paint an accent wall in the color of your preferred motorcycle brand. This creates a focal point in the room where you can hang large wall art with a motorcycle theme. Choose an area without windows or doors to use as the accent wall. It should be opposite the main seating in the room, if possible.

      Invest in leather furniture, since this material is a large part of the biking world. Leather couches, occasional chairs and bar stools add to the biker theme. Try to find leather furniture with metal studs or other types of metal as an embellishment. Leather is a natural material that has a dramatic impact that blends perfectly with the motorcycle theme.

      Select coffee, end tables and furniture used for storage that has metal-tones in the hardware, legs or shelves. This adds an edgy look to the room that coordinates well with the motorcycle theme.

      Pick pictures frames and lamps with chrome-look frames and bases. These add sparkle to the room as well as enhance the biker atmosphere.

    • 5

      Display collectible biker memorabilia on shelves or in curio cabinets. Don't overcrowd the area, thus making it look cluttered. Rotate your collection every couple of months if it is too large to be displayed all at once.

      Set knickknacks with a motorcycle theme around the room. Hunt for motorcycle logo clocks, posters, ashtrays and sculptures at thrift stores and garage sales.
