Kellen Bedroom

My friend Jeni asked if I could come up with a design for her teenage son’s bedroom. Some of his interests include baseball (specifically a Dodger’s fan), fishing, music and reading. He also knew that he wanted a light gray blue color on the walls. Here are the before pictures:

These are his design boards:

• Console Bookcase
• Vintage Baseball Art
• Framed Baseball Definition
• Framed Baseball Training Art
• Charcoal Swivel Chair
• Bulletin Board
• Desk
• Magazine Rack
• Cotton Striped Throw Pillow
• Striped Throw Blanket
• Sheets
• Duvet
• Farmhouse Bed
• Dodgers Sign
• Area Rug

I think it would look awesome to divide the walls as pictured and paint the upper part the lighter blue gray and the lower part a dusty blue. You could add some sort of wainscoting if you were up for a project where the dusty blue color is or just paint that on the wall and do a piece of trim in between the two colors. You could even do a piece of trim that was more like a little mini shelf around the entire room. Does that make sense? I kept the charcoal bedding in the picture but I would get some gray and white striped sheets to go under that with a white throw blanket that has a little black stripes and blue throw pillows to go on the bed. I think it would look really good to get a wood bedframe or headboard to add and a wood element to the room. I would paint the desk that he has gray and then get a white and gray bulletin board to hang above that. It would also look awesome to get a black bean bag/chair or something like that to have in the corner of the room. I love that he has so much wall space in there. It would look really cool to hang some black metal racks on the wall for book storage. You could also get some more Dodgers decor to hang in a gallery on the wall. You could get some baseball pictures in the color scheme that I picture above. More black and white and tan colors. You could layer them on the little shelf/trim that goes around the room. It would be cool to get a little console shelf like the one pictured to sit below the pictures where you could put additional decor or books. If he doesn’t want so much baseball stuff in his room, really he could do anything just in the color scheme that matches. You could print out and frame some of his favorite quotes from general conference or scriptures, etc.
