Harry Potter Themed Bedroom

Welcome to our Magical Harry Potter Themed Bedroom. This is definitely not one of my typical posts but it combines two of my very favorite things…Home Decor & Harry Potter! I am a HUGE Potterhead nerd so when Luke said he wanted a Harry Potter themed bedroom, my brain exploded with all the ideas.

But how do you bring a wizarding world to life here in the muggle world? I am so excited to share how we transformed Luke’s room into a magical, wizard-worthy chamber!

The first thing we did to start creating a Harry Potter themed room was paint. We don’t live in a dark stone castle but we can still create the moody vibes of a Hogwarts common room. Since Luke is a Slytherin, painting his room green was an easy choice. Charcoal Smoke is the perfect moody green. 

Next we added a wood slat accent wall with shelves. We wanted to create a cozy space for him to read and display all of his favorite Harry Potter treasures. You can read the full tutorial on how to build this DIY Wood Slat Accent Wall with shelves here. 

Choosing bedding was pretty simple because he already had a green comforter. We found some Harry Potter themed sheets, a Marauder’s Map throw blanket, a body pillow cover with the Hogwarts crest and this adorable Dobby plush toy. 

The next thing I added was the antique frame wall. The castle walls at Hogwarts are covered from floor to ceiling in elaborately framed portraits and I wanted to recreate this somehow. I headed to our local Goodwill store and found all of these frames for $2 a piece. I spray painted some of them gold so that they all had an antiqued look. They look so good against that green wall!

Potions class is a very important class at Hogwarts so we had to include some potions in our decor. I bought some corked glass bottles and printable labels to store our potions. Then I made my own potions using art supplies we had around the house. They turned out even better than I expected.

I painted his desk with a charcoal chalk paint and then added gold pulls to go along with the frames and the other gold accents in the room. I found the quill on Amazon and added it to the desk to make it look a little more turn of the century.

Hogwarts students arrive each year with their trunks and pets. In the Harry Potter series, Harry has an owl named Hedwig that becomes a loyal companion to Harry throughout his school years. So, obviously, Luke needed his own owl and trunk. Now he’ll be ready to go when he gets his letter 😉 I’m also completely obsessed with these Harry Potter wall decals! This corner just might be my favorite. 

Finally, we needed a place to hang his Hogwarts robe, wand and invisibility cloak. We already had the hooks so we painted them to match the rest of the room. To finish out this wall, we added this Hogwarts banner and…another amazing wall decal. 

I had so much fun bringing this Harry Potter themed bedroom to life. The look on his face says it all. All of the hard work and details = WORTH IT!

I hope this post inspired some ideas to help create a magical room for your Potterhead nerd…or for you…no judgment here 😜 Check out the slideshow below for some of the other Harry Potter details we added to the room.
