24 Aug How to Prep Your Home for Football Season!
It’s that time of year again. Tailgates, corn hole, 8-layer dips, diehard fans, rivalries. These are many of the things we look forward to when football season arrives. Whether you’re rooting for your alma mater or cheering on your favorite NFL team, one thing is for certain- football is a lifestyle. Embrace this lifestyle by prepping your home with tasteful décor for the football season!
Tips:
- For your Kitchen… Incorporating football décor is not just limited to your living room, subtle touches around the home create an overall cohesive look. Imprinted cutting boards, glass cups with faint logo, football themed rugs and metal-etched magnets are all great ideas for the kitchen area.
- For your living room…Try not to go overboard with pieces that clutter your space, but rather include décor that you can use throughout the fall season. Embroidered blankets with logos, vintage pieces and coasters made out of old football player cards in protective cases are fun ways to add that fan flare. A football themed wreath made of fabric such as burlap or deco mesh brightens an empty wall or space above a fireplace. If you’re feeling crafty, shadowboxes provide an attractive way to display pieces such as game tickets or news clippings from important wins.
- Framing adds to cohesive look…Framing gives almost anything an automatic classy boost. Fans can frame jerseys and helmets and enclose signed footballs in clear display cases. Framing posters, photos, or autographs from players makes them suitable for decorating the walls throughout the home. This is way more appealing than just taping a poster to your wall.
- For your tailgate experience…If you’re not able to partake in tailgating at the stadium, recreate it in your own driveway or backyard. Have a cookout or potluck with family and friends. If your neighbors enjoy football as well, why not have a block party tailgate? It’s festive and connects the neighborhood. Games such as corn hole and football toss instantly create a tailgate atmosphere.
