Decorating your dorm room / bedroom.

[Maxtro]

I recently moved into a three bedroom apartment and I’m renting one of the rooms. My room is basically finished the only things I’m missing is decorations. So far I have one poster Link and a girly calendar that I’ll probably move to the closet.

The problem is that I don’t have a clue what else to do to the room. What can I do to the room that would make it more attractive to the girls I bring home?

So far I got a queen size bed, computer desk, a loveseat facing the TV to avoid having to sit on the bed while watching TV.

I need some more stuff for the walls. Anybody have any decorating sense on what would look good? I’m looking for something that would tell the girls I bring home, that I have good taste. And I’d also like to get them in the mood, without disgusting them. I’ve been looking around, and this poster catches my eye Link

Any ideas?

Since you're renting a room, I'm guessing the walls are white. Look in to painting them if you're allowed. It's easy to do and will completely change the atmosphere. Please tell me the posters are framed. Nothing will kill your "man of taste" image quite like a poster tacked to the wall (or a nude calendar for that matter). If anything, your room should convey your personality. Look into some art, and art that you actually like (I don't really consider your posters artsy but that's me).

Sheets. Buy some NICE sheets. Whether they be high thread count or whatever. As for myself, I have satin sheets. I've yet to meet a chick that doesn't love the feel of satin sheets. You could look into silk too if you really want to shell out the cash.

But the BIGGEST thing you can do to impress chicks is to keep your room clean. Let me emphasize.... KEEP YOUR ROOM CLEAN. Clean bed, clean floors, dust regularly, etc. etc. Make sure your room doesn't have any weird smells either. Personally I like the Glade scented oil candles to add a nice smell. The biggest turn off to a girl is a nasty, smelly room. A nasty room will murder the mood (in cold-blood too, lol). It doesn't have to be ultra-neat and immaculate though. It should look "lived-in" but be clean at the same time.

anything what makes you feel good. posters, photos, pics cut out from magazines, stuff you're proud of, stuff you'd like to have, stuff you truly know or work on, pics of things you've done/been, self made stuff - not just only pictures... almost what ever. decoration is good way to keep the convo flowing and show you as an interesting person... you can ask yourself - would i like to talk about it? maybe i want to talk about it? and as usual, don't just overdo that! that might get freaky

I have to start with this

Star Trek and Star Wars toys are cool. Magic Cards and Dungeons & Dragons Books. Star Wars Posters covering the walls. If you have shelves, go grab yourself some Warhammer 40k and a remote control Dalek in the corner that screams "EXTERMINATE EXTERMINATE". A couple well placed Nintendo Mascot figurines. Glow in the dark stars on the roof, DJ equipment off to the side. All your comic books lined up against the wall and UNO, PARANOIA XP and Abduction ready for easy access (Girls love those games).

If you can pull that off and still get women, you have my respect. (Thats what I have in my room)

BTW My girlfriend (Petite, 21, HB 9.5) loves my room.

LOL the fact that you are 28 and have that room is crazy. But if it works for you, more power to you.

Yes the walls are white, but I really don't feel comfortable painting them. I'd also have to change them back to white when I leave.

The only poster I have so far is not framed. It's the beach poster which is 62 x 21. I did look into frames but they all would be $200+ which there is no way I would pay that much for a frame. Any opinions on the other poster? Link That one I could get framed

Where could I find some art and what would work? I don't have a clue about art.

I do keep my room clean but I will look into the scented things. Since my room is always about 80, my window is always open so it never smells, but I'll go the extra mile.

Great suggestions. If only I had something like that.
