I got them a long time ago on Ebay. I don't think she sells them anymore.

I am like that with every other room in the house (we have a no toys outside of the bedrooms rule for my sanity) but dh said I had to let the boys have their rooms as a reprieve from my "eccentricities".

So while I go through once every few months and weed out clothes and infrequently used toys I pretty much allow them to decorate however they want and keep what they want in there (within reason of course). They have to keep it "clean" but what dh and the boys consider clean and what I consider clean are obviously very different things. Just knowing that mess is back there makes me a little twitchy but other people come in and tell me how nice and organized my house is. I know I need to just let go and embrace life. Maybe someday I will.

This is me exactly, lol. I keep telling Dd1 if she just puts her clothes away when she takes them off and puts her things away when she is done then it will stay neat and clean. She asked me why she has to have it clean to my way. I totally agree with her, but I told her that I have to come in and out so she needs to meet me in the middle. It only needs to be picked up when the house is cleaned.

Ajane- I LOVELOVELOVE your kids' rooms! The colors and prints are so nice

Very much my style!

Here's a few pics of my DD's room. These were taken before she was born, so there are a few things not hung on the walls, the floors are different now, and she has a chandelier....but you can get the idea!

Bump. Just moved Little into a Big Boy Bed and tweaked his room a bit so coming back with pics in a jiffy. Anybody else want to share??

This is the boys room.

This is our "girl" room. We are hoping for a foster placement of girls!

Our toy room which is on the 1st floor of the house in the parlor.

Little Levi's room
We are DIYers so pretty much everything is custom or on a budget or given to us.
We love our small kids' rooms. Each measures only 11x12'.

Big Boys' Room. Recently unbunked their beds for something new.

Kmart. It was a black friday deal a few years ago. I think we paid $69 for it.
