Decorating for teenage boys bedroom?

we are moving and the boys are going to be sharing a bedroom, does anyone have any ideas as to how to make the room look cool and give each a little bit of privacy. also they are both interested in music and skateboarding so something maybe with those two themes.Decorating for teenage boys bedroom?
Skateboarding brings to mind an Urban type of feel. You could get 2 lockers (Pick them up from a second hand shop or your recycling center) so they could keep their stuff private.





Also, use cheap Walmart or Zellers skateboards to make a cool headboard - or pick up some used ones.Decorating for teenage boys bedroom?
It's tough to find stuff for boys. Girls stuff is EVERYWHERE! Check out the decorating sites like HGTV or Decorating Sense (under $500.00 decorating)
Build a half-pipe in the room. It can act as a partition to divide the room so they have privacy. There's dead-space under the half-pipe, so mount audio loudspeakers in it, so it acts as the speaker enclosure.





Maybe too much?
My recommendations are rock bands, sports, and military.
*smiles*....There are so many wonderful things and themes you can do with their room, I really don't know where to begin. I must say though, (having a teenage daughter) I think that it is very VERY important to make the two boys a huge part of the decision when it comes to the colour, furniture, theme of the room...when it comes to everything. Remember, if the boys love the room, they will spend more time in it and even invite friends over to watch tv, play video games etc. At least when they are home, over your roof, you don't have to worry. (Which is why I really didn't mind dishing out about $600. to make my daughters rooms what she wanted. I know where she is.).....Skateboarding and music, both sound great to me.....and I am sure you will do a wonderful job with their help. Oh, and be sure to have them do that....the painting and work I mean........Good luck, from one Mom to another.
