Teen boy bedroom decorating ideas?

KP

I am looking for ideas on decorating a teen boy's bedroom in a video gamer style/theme room, but I don't have any ideas on how to do this. Does anyone have any good ideas? What colors would be best to use? What types of decorating items could I use? Thanks!

Well to start with a gaming teen boy will most likely not care what his decor is, unless it directly affects his gaming, or is game related... (well none that I have met care anyway) so I wouldn't go toooo far with decorating, leave the walls neutral, and put these up, I know it is old now, but they're so old they're now retro kitsch
space invaders wall decals (they also come in pacman) http://www.patriciafield.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=354
Unfortunately this thing is only avail in eastern europe, but WOW! http://blog.wired.com/gadgets/images/2007/10/18/2battleprobig_2.jpg
back to reality though, for bedding I'd just use a totally plain cover that will wear well, the focus isn't about a bed cover in this room, so patterns or designs would be overbearing, unless of course he finds one he is crazy about??
For some great gaming seating target has lots but check this one out, its a sound lounger that is compatible with any audio device... http://www.target.com/Blue-Pyramat-Sound-Lounger-PM550/dp/B00069FEZ6/sr=1-2/qid=1216943582/ref=sr_1_2/602-9342378-8675002?ie=UTF8&index=target&field-original-keywords=Pyramat%20PM220%20Sound%20Rocker&rh=k%3Apyramat%20pm550%20sound%20rocker&page=1
but target has other gaming seating that is pretty cool... http://www.target.com/Video-Game-Furniture-Games-Electronics/b/602-9342378-8675002?ie=UTF8&node=13921431
and for console and games storage there are these two..

For all your other furniture I still think IKEA covers everything teens need, http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/categories/departments/youth_room but to suit your theme, I'd start with the gaming accessories and then match the furniture, bedding and walls etc, for a cool take though, these lighting strips look fantastic (and if he's gaming overhead light isn't a great idea) http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/50119407
I'd also use something like the tupplur roll blind to block out light, http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/categories/departments/youth_room/10701/
and these glass globes look fantastic alone or on top of a little ikea light (can't remember its name but glass globe and light cost me about $20 together) and really look amazing in a darkened room.. http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/90065662
Other than that, I'd be trying to find some posters of his favorite games, not making the room too bright, and here are a few other smaller ideas to accessorise the room (retro again but he may be too young to appreciate it??) http://www.fredflare.com/customer/product.php?productid=3714&cat=254

and last but not least, how tech savvy are you? because the score board is fantastic, but requires a bit of skill (and money) to do... (you'll have to scroll down) http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,1935015,00.asp

Where can I find Toy Story decor for my little girl, preferably Jessie?

Kaye

My 2 year-old daughter loves all the Toy Story movies; we watch all 3 literally everyday. She has the "real" Jessie and Buzz toys and makes them kiss all the time. I really want to do her room in Toy Story but everything is clearly for little boys. Has anyone seen any Toy Story girl bedding, curtains, or anything at all? I already have the wall stickers, but that seems to be the only thing available in the USA. Fabric would be great too because I sew and would be able to just make her a sheet set and quilt if I could find Jessie fabric.

Answer
How do you feel about ebay? I found Jessie items there including a brand new whole bedding set, dresser drawer pulls , light switch covers, a sheet ( used but you could make a cute curtain for her room ) , pillow case here are a couple of links ....But remember to keep checking there cause new stuff comes up all the time !


Here's all the listings--> http://home.shop.ebay.com/Home-Garden-/11700/i.html?_nkw=TOY+STORY+JESSIE&_catref=1&_fln=1&_ipg=&_trksid=p3286.c0.m282

and here's the best one for the bedding set ! ----> http://cgi.ebay.com/TOY-STORY-3-JESSIE-DUVET-SET-BRAND-NEW-SEALED-RARE-/260713518744?pt=UK_Home_Garden_Bedroom_Bedding_PP&hash=item3cb3bc9698
