    I agree that too many decorations are overstimulating. I do think that you can have a theme without overdoing it, though. My theme is Hollywood. I have a color theme of red, yellow (gold), and neutrals (black, white, and grey). There's a bit of dark blue sprinkled in, but that was an unfortunate necessity. I have a few hollywood items sprinkled around the room and a few posters i made out of butcher paper that I had laminated.
