Décor can make or break a room, and man caves are no exception. In order to have a successful man cave, you will want to make sure your décor is right, especially your wall décor. We’ve provided 10 ideas for man cave wall decorations to help ensure that your wall décor reflects everything you want your man cave to represent.
Vinyl Records
If you’re a music fan, your man cave is the perfect place to show it. Hanging your vinyl records on your wall is not only a great way to safely store your vinyl collection, but it also allows you to show it off.
If you are a musician yourself, you can double your man cave as a music room. If you do this, hanging your instruments, such as guitars, on your wall is both functional and an interesting look.
Road Signs
If you’re a nomad at heart, you can make your man cave feel like you’re on a road trip. Many people and businesses commonly use road signs as décor on their walls. Vintage road signs especially can serve as fun man cave decorations. You don’t have to design your entire man cave around these road signs – a simple “Route 66” vintage sign will be sure to stand out!
Movie Posters
Many men use their man caves as a space to watch TV – whether it be sports, a marathon of their favorite show, or movies. If you watch movies so much that your man cave basically doubles as a theatre, why not also make it look like one?
Adding posters of your favorite movies is a great way to personalize the walls of your man cave. You can add just one or two of your favorite posters to round out the room, or you can create the full theatre aesthetic and line your walls with an assortment of posters.
Sports Décor
If you have a man cave, chances are you are also an avid sports fan. If you are into sports, why not display your favorite equipment on the wall? Hanging jerseys and small sports equipment on the wall of your man cave not only make for great decoration, but it is also an ideal place for storage.
If you have sports memorabilia, using your collectables as wall décor gives you a chance to show them off. Whether you frame a pair of tickets from your first football game, display a signed baseball, or show off your favorite hockey stick, sports items make great man cave wall decorations.
Minimalist Wall Décor
You don’t necessarily need to fill your man cave with furniture and décor. Sometimes, keeping décor to a minimum is the best way to express yourself. The less décor that you have in your man cave, the less distractions it may cause, therefore turning your space into more into a place of relaxation.
That being said, adding a couple of subtle or accent pieces to your wall can still add a hint of your personality to your man cave. Whether it’s monochrome artwork, big lettering, or even a mirror, keeping your wall décor simple will emphasize the peace that your man cave may bring you.
Liquor Bottles
If your man cave doubles as a bar, then a creative way to decorate your walls is to have your liquor bottles on them. The bottles do not have to be sitting on a standard shelf – there are a number of different options to creatively display your bottle on your wall. For example, you can purchase a pack of individual wine racks to put on your wall in any way that you want.
This set of wine racks from Hipiwe lets you hang your wine upside down on your wall for a more eye-catching display.
Dart Board
Dart boards are not only a fun activity to do, but they can also be decorative.

With LED lights to help illuminate the target, this dart board looks especially good if you have a bar in your man cave.

Your Favorite Art Pieces
Are you an art aficionado? While many people keep their art in their living room, it makes sense to keep pieces that you enjoy looking at on the walls of your man cave.
This is an especially great option if the rest of your man cave décor is reflective of the type of art you want to display. Whether it be abstract, minimalist, or even a little wild, adding your favorite pieces of art may complete your artistic vision for your man cave.
Nautical Theme
Nautical-themed rooms are a classic, and man caves may benefit from such a theme. You don’t have to paint the walls of your man cave blue to have this theme come to life. Hanging a few items on the wall, such as paintings of ships, or even painting a compass on your wall, will give your man cave that nautical feel. If you’re feeling bold, you can even find an anchor to hang on your wall!
Photographs
