Geek My Room

I'd like to share a video I came across on Felicia Day's Geek & Sundry YouTube channel:

What a fun project! Your home is your castle; it should reflect the things you love. This video gives some great tips for geeking-out your room on a budget. To recap:

• Frame your posters
• Find a theme & use its color scheme (60% primary color; 30% secondary color; 10% accent color)
• Use old toys as decorations
• DIY is fun and inexpensive
• Avoid clutter!!!

If I might add a few ideas:

• Look into different decor styles (traditional, contemporary, eclectic, etc.) and try to build a geek-infused design from there
• Your room doesn't have to represent every TV show, movie, video game, and comic you love. Narrow your focus.
• Keep the layout simple enough to change things over time.
• Have a fellow fan help you, if you can. An extra set of eyes can't hurt.
• Remember you have to LIVE in what you come up with.

I hope this has given you a few a ideas and some motivation to update the look of your favorite room with a little more of the things you love. There's no better way to introduce someone into your life than bringing them home to see how much you love Doctor Who.
