Project Kids Room

Our two youngest kids share a room.  They have shared a bunk bed for the past 6 years or so.  My husband made the bunk bed & it has been really great!  Here is a picture from when he made it all those years ago:

He made the bunk bed to fit the kids toddler/crib size mattresses.  This bed made it easy to have more space in small rooms.  They have now grown too tall for the toddler size mattresses & it's time to move up to twin size.

We bought them another bunk bed set in a twin size, but we aren't going to use it as bunk beds for now.  We are going to leave them separate, so they can each have their own space.  If we ever need for them to be bunk beds again, it is nice to have that option.  This is the bunk bed set we bought for the kids & should be able to pick up sometime this week.

We decided that with a new bed for each kiddo, we would try and redecorate their room a little bit.  We went and picked out some paint & painted the room this weekend.  They each will have 2 walls to decorate as their own.  Megan's color is purplicious & Joshua's is ship's ahoy.  He actually wanted red, but we convinced him to go with a blue, so that it would match a little bit better with the purple & hopefully won't be as difficult to recover in paint the next time we have to move.

Here are some pics of the painting we did this weekend:

This is a before picture (yes the carpet is hideous! We know LOL)

Some pics of the colors all done:

Megan is wanting a very girly & princess type theme for her bed & side of the room.  Joshua is wanting a baseball theme for his.  I have a lot of ideas in my head that I hope I can make happen LOL.  I will post the progress of how the room is coming along as we add/change more things.
