I am going away for the summer and while I am gone, my mom decided she is going to decorate my bedroom for a birthday present. I told her I wanted a Harry Potter theme (I'm obsessed with HP), but we can't paint anything since we rented our house. So, I would love some ideas to show my mom to make my room look like HP themed. If you know about any stores that might sell some things that kinda relate to Harry Potter, please tell me :) Any ideas to make my room look awesome! Thank you so much ~Toshiko

Well first make your bed Harry Potter theamed and cover your walls with posters: Your favourite Quidditch teams, characters. Have trunks instead of cabinets (not the typical pirate style ones because they look like rubbish) Have figurienes of your characters and by yourself a real wand from online novelty shop. Get yourself a good broom and also some robes of your favourite House to wear. and have bottles of ink and parchment for everyday use instead of your traditional paper and pencil. Buy yourself a pet Owl/Cat/(Hamster or rabbit for Pygme Puff substitution.) Try and find out if you can get a mock Pensive or Mirror of the Erised for your dresser. Accessorise yourself with HP Products. (Rememberalls, HP Sweets, Drinks) Cheers
My room has an HP theme to (and Im 21 =))it but fortunately our landlord lets us paint. Some suggestions -Wall Art (its not paint) they are these cool sticker like things that are removable and totally amazing!!! http://www.harrypotterwallart.com/ -HP Posters in frames - Banners, flags, and other things from your favorite house (can find online) - Pictures in nice frames from the movies - A large old style trunk -ETC..
If you guys live in CA I recommend visiting Whimsic Alley- It is just like Diagon Alley for Fans and is amazing you can find all kinds of things for your room and have a blast too (they have a wand shop, robe shop, Hp movie and book merch., and a great hall). You might get some ideas. Here is the link to the website (the site isn't that great but the store is awesome!!) http://www.whimsicalley.com/
I think you need a stuffed owl in a cage, and some type of floating candles..maybe the battery operated ones hanging on fish line or something. The broomstick is definitely necessary and maybe a basket or a display of wands ( just sticks from the trees- but good ones). The class colors for bedding would be cool, like griffindor's is scarlet and gold. A sorting hat? And a nice bookshelf to put all the books. Hope this gave you some ideas.
Ok, first off your name is freaken AMAZING. Im not really sure where you can find these things but you might want to try finding sheets and comforters and stuff, you might try Hot Topic especially since part 2 just came out (i think right?). and some really cute things would be making broom sticks and lightning bolts out of wood and you can hang them on the wall w/o gettin in trouble!! hope this helps
