Ideas For A Harry Potter Theme Room

harry potter theme roomSuch a cool Harry Potter bedroom! Things I love about this room-

  • purple walls

  • suitcase dresser

  • the bed, the bed!!

  • the pillows on the bed!

  • mirror of Erised in the corner

  • simple pennant valance

Room image from here. Such an easy way to add a Harry Potter feel to a room with removable vinyl decals. Even though the decals are no longer available to purchase, I wanted to share the idea. Image from here.

I'm loving Hedwig flying in the air. Image from here.
Great way to recycle pages in a book and also create a Harry Potter feel. DIY instructions and image from here. Harry Potter bookcases painted on the closet door - clever! Image from here. A frame was painted around the mirror to mimic the Mirror of Erised. The mirror frame was spray painted gold to match the gold frame surround. Image from here.

How about adding a full size lego creation:) Image from here.

What to do with the space under the stairs? Make it into a Harry Potter Cupboard!
While visiting my cousins family, I was fortunate enough to be taken to their friend Kamile Stewart's home for a tour. Kamile created this room under her stairwell as a little hangout for the kids. She hired a muralist to paint the mural scenes. It was hard to get photos of the whole "room", but you get the idea. Thanks to Kamile for sharing her beautiful home and her creativity.

Love the keys hanging from the light fixture....


Fun hangout....
