 How to create a sports team themed room with paint is easier than you may have thought! 

Creating an engaging room like this is a fun and personalized way to showcase your team spirit and really get you in the mood for the game!  Plus your home will be the new go to place for your friends!

Here’s a step by step guide to walk you through the process from the painting and design professionals at NuVision Homes:

 1. **Choose Team Colors**

 -Identify the primary colors of your faborite sports team.  These colors will be the foundation of your room’s color palatte.  For more information on primary colors follow this link.  

 2. **Select a Dominant Wall Color**

– Choose one of the team colors as the dominant wall color.  This will serve as the background for the rest of the room.

3. **Accent Wall or Stripes**

-Consider painting one wall as an accent wall in a contrasting team color.  Alternatively, you can create vertical or horizontal stripes using the team colors.  Use painter’s tape to achieve clean lines.  We recommend Frog Tape for the best results which can be found at most big box stores.

4. **Team Logo or Mascot**

-Incorporate the team logo or mascot on one wall as a focal point.  You can either paint it directly on the wall (if you have the artistic skills) or use decals or stencils for a more precise representation.

5. **Jersey Display**

-Frame and display sports jerseys on the walls.  You can create a gallery wall with framed jerseys or use shadow boxes to showcase signed memorabilia.

 6. **Sports-Themed Murals**

-Consider sports-themed murals on one or more walls.  This could included depictions of iconic moments, the team’s stadium, or a collage of images related to the sport.

7. **Sports Equipment Displays**

-Use sports equipment as decorative elements.  Hang basketballs, footballs, or other sports equipment on the walls or create shelves to display sports related items.

8. **Customize Furniture**

-Customize furniture with team colors or logos.  For example, paint a dresser or bookshelf in team colors or add decals to furniture surfaces.  A bold color window sticker in the center of a glass table can create quite a statement!

9. **Team-Inspired Bedding and Accessories**

-Depending on if which room you are turning into your sports haven you can consider bedding, throw pillows, carpets, drapes, and other accessories that feature the team logo or color.  This helps tie the room together and adds comfort.

 10. **Scoreboard or Wall Graphics**

-Create a scoreboard (using chalkboard paint is a handy thought!) or use wall graphics that mimic elements of the sport.  This can add an interactive and dynamic touch to the room.

11. **Team-Themed Stencils**

-Use stencils to add team-related phrases, player names, or motivational quotes on the walls.  This adds a personalized touch to the room.

12. **Flooring Considerations**

-If possible, choose flooring options that complement the team colors or theme.  This could include rugs, carpets, themed floor decals, or even artificial grass!

13. **Lighting**

-Install sports-themed lighting fixtures, such as pendant lights or lamps with team colors or logos.  This adds ambiance and ties the theme together.

14. **Interactive Elements**

-Incorporate interactive elements like a mini basketball hoop, wall mounted shelves for sports equipment, or table games.

15. **Personal Touches**

-Add personal touches such as framed photos of memorable games attended, tickets, or other cherished sports-related items.

Remember to balance the bold team colors with neutral tones to avoid overwhelming the space and have a great time!
