Gryffindor colour scheme
Any true Gryffindor already knows that the house colours are scarlet red and gold. Of course, these bold shades may feel a little intimidating for a bedroom colour palette. So, to introduce the Gryffindor colours into your bedroom design without going overboard, we’d suggest experimenting with accent tones.
This could be anything from red-and-gold bedding to ornate gold accessories, like vintage photo frames and candlestick holders. You could also consider weaving these shades into your foundations, with an elegant bedroom rug or an embossed red wallpaper. Adding subtle nods to the Gryffindor colours is a great way to create an authentic Hogwarts feel.
Lighting that sets the Gryffindor mood
Cosiness is key in a Gryffindor-themed bedroom, and the best way to achieve a cosy, low-lit sleep space is with some magical lighting. Rather than using the big light, opt for bedside lamps, spellbinding string lights, and flickering candles to cast a warm glow. To take things one step further, why not hang some Harry Potter 10 House Crest Bunting Lights around your bedroom? Or, to really impress Professor McGonagall, display a Harry Potter Gryffindor Crest Infinity Light on your shelving. 10 points to Gryffindor!
Wall art & decor
Instantly transform your space into a Gryffindor dorm room by decorating your bedroom walls. One of our favourite muggle inventions is our Harry Potter Light Up Wall Art. These enchanting pieces, such as our Harry Potter Patronus Light Up Wall Art, look great on bedroom walls and appear to light up by magic!
If you’re not afraid of some Gryffindor-style mischief, we’d highly recommend the Harry Potter Marauder’s Map Light Up Wall Art, so you can keep tabs on where everyone is moving at all times. Prongs, Padfoot, Moony, and Wormtail will surely be proud.
Characters & collectables
Got a favourite Gryffindor? Honour them with a bewitching Harry Potter Character Light. Whether you’re a Harry, Ron, or Hermione fanatic, there’s a collectable piece for every witch and wizard. These lights work great as bedside table ornaments, shelf styling pieces, or even part of a wider display of your prized Potter memorabilia. And because they’re officially licensed NOMA Harry Potter™ collectables, they make a perfect gift (even if it’s from you-to-you!) for any Potterhead building their own wizarding collection.
Alternatively, add subtle hints to your favourite Gryffindor character through your bedroom accessories. If you’re studious like Hermione, curate a bookshelf of vintage-looking books to mirror her love of learning. Or, if Neville Longbottom is your hero, place some houseplants on your window ledge to remind you of his Herbology talents. And for Harry or Ron fans, a classic chessboard is a charming nod to their favourite game: Wizard’s Chess.
Finishing touches on a budget
If you’re designing your Gryffindor-themed bedroom on a budget, fear not! You don’t need to do a full bedroom renovation to bring a little magic to your space. Instead, choose one piece of Gryffindor room decor that captures its essence. Whether that’s with some Harry Potter Quidditch Bunting Lights hanging above your bed, so everyone knows your favourite wizarding sport, or our awesome Harry Potter Gryffindor Crest Infinity Light on your bedside table, to showcase your house spirit.
