When my son, Owen, turned seven, he made one thing clear—he was ready for a “big kid” room that matched his love for the Philadelphia sports. Gone were the days of his toddler-themed decor (see that project here); he wanted a space that felt fresh, fun, and full of his favorite football team’s spirit. So, we set out to give his room a complete makeover, from painting the walls in team colors to adding Eagles-inspired bedding, wall art, and more. If you’re looking for inspiration for a sports-themed bedroom, follow along as I share how we tackled this transformation!

The Game Plan: Picking the Right Colors For A Sports-Themed Bedroom
To kick off the makeover, we chose a bold yet stylish color palette inspired by the Eagles—midnight green, tan, charcoal grey/black, and white. Painting one accent wall in deep Eagles green made an instant impact, while neutral walls kept the room feeling balanced.


Touchdown-Worthy Decor & Furniture Upgrades For a Sports-Themed Bedroom
- Bedding & Pillows – We already had Beddy’s bedding on the boys bunkbeds so instead of purchasing a new set, I decided to work with the charcoal color. To incorporate our Eagles colors, my Mother-in-Law knit a throw blanket for the edge of the bed.
- Wall Art & Decals – A giant Eagles flag became the focal point, and framed football cards of his favorite players added personality.
- Storage Solutions – A new bookshelf and bins in soft neutrals helpes keep Owen’s growing sports memorabilia organized.
- Lighting & Accessories – The vintage wire chandalier works well with the design, so no need to change it!


The bunk beds are from my husbands childhood. But they’re super high quality so I painted them to look similar to this Pottery Barn Set.
The Final Score: A Sports-Themed Bedroom He Loves!
Seeing Owen’s excitement as he stepped into his newly designed Philadelphia Eagles room made every effort worth it. The room now truly reflects his personality and passion for sports while providing a functional, organized space for sleep, play, and schoolwork.
