- 1). Devise central theme to your bedroom. Baseball fans might want to pay homage to their favorite team or hall of fame players. Baseball often works well because there are are clear photos of many older players, but this theme can be carried out with any sport. Some of the best things to put in the room are replica jerseys, team pennants and insignias, and you can also paint the room in your team's colors.
- 2). Get some photos of your favorite players from your favorite team and put them in central locations around your room. If you are New York Yankees fan, you have a rich history to draw from. You will want to get photos of players like Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle, Thurman Munson, Reggie Jackson and Derek Jeter for your room. It will be very difficult to get game-worn jerseys from these great players (and very expensive), but you should be able to get replicas of them from sports collectible shops at a more reasonable price. You should be able to replicas of baseball bats and gloves as well. These will be great additions to your room.
- 3). Get blankets and comforters that match your feelings about your team. If you are a Yankees fan and a Babe Ruth fan, get a comforter with Yankee Stadium embroidered on it. Get curtains or blinds that reflect your interest in your team. The Yankee Stadium design would be great for Yankee fans. Wrigley Field is appropriate for Cubs fans while Tiger fans may want to look at old Tiger Stadium or Comerica Park.
- 4). Add some posters of some of your team's more modern day stars and put them around your room at strategic points. The juxtaposition of the newer posters with the pictures of the older players should work well. You can also display baseball or football cards from your favorite players as well. Arrange them with an array of the cards or your can frame them to make them more prominent.
- 5). Put up a large panoramic picture of your favorite team's home stadium. These pictures might be older and give you a full view of what the old stadiums looked like. Vintage stadium pictures of places like Yankee Stadium, Wrigley Field, Fenway Park, Crosley Field (Cincinnati), Forbes Field (Pittsburgh) and Ebbetts Field (Brooklyn) will contribute to the theme for the bedroom.
