I'm not sure these photo's do the room justice, but you get an idea of how it looks.

Yay !!!! Zoe,You and James have done a great job. The room is much bigger in real life though. I know Jack is frilled with it.

Ok ok I will definately do my boys room next weekend. But what theme???????? One is Chelsea and one in Man Utd If it was just Aaron I would copy you and go for Dr Who, But Daniel will want Chelsea Argh!!!! May have to just keep it neutral for now,as we can always change a few things when Daniel goes into his own room. I love the 2 different colour walls. And Jack's trophy shelf is fab!

So whats your next project?? Wanna come and stay here and help me???????

LOL!! Would love to!!

My next job is tackling our bedroom. We always neglect ourselves and our room is really looking shabby now. So hopefully next month it will be looking fab. We already have a new bed but we are desperate for a new carpet and furniture.

Then if I play my cards right, i'll be getting my new kitchen early next year!! Woohoo!!

Oh yeah, I remember you saying you will be getting your kitchen done. Its a great size. I would love to have a big enough kitchen to fit in a table and chairs.

Thats great Zoe, i love the two colour blues. I would love to do Hollie's room as the upstairs and hallway havent been done since we moved in, but her carpet was new when we moved in and it is blue. So i just dont know what to do, its a nice carpet so i dont want to replace it just for a different colour, but cant really do a pink room.

Yes Kas, the bed is from Ikea  and Jack loves it. I love it too as underneath it is like a den so that's where all his toys are, in an organised way. His bedroom has never been so tidy as it is now, it's great!!

You can also have it so the bed is at the bottom with the frame work above (if you look on the website) if you think they are a little young to be climbing up to bed.

I think the neighbours are getting a laugh when I change his bed though as I have to stand on a stool!!

i thought that was the bed, thats the one we were originally going to get for niamh when we were pg with tara. but when we had another girl we decided to hold off as we'd prob be spending out on bunk beds in a few years.

fab bed though

The wall behind the wardrobe is dark blue, the walls either side of it are light blue then the wall behind the chest of drawers is cream so you are all right!!

Thanks for your comments girls. We are pleased with how it's looking and Jack loves it so everyone is happy!.

Lucy - it was either move or get the house how I want it. James decided it would be cheaper to let me loose with redecorating this house!!

Zoe Jacks room looks fantastic, love the furniture.

 I want to re-decorate Kais room into white and blue, its pale green at the moment with Peter rabbit stick a rounds, we did it green cos we didn't know if we were having a boy or a girl. Im really bored with it now!

We've got our flat up for sale but so far only had 3 people to look round so we've re-decorated alot of the rooms cos we thought if we're gonna have to stay here a bit longer we may as well have it looking how we want it!

Sarah, the step shelf is from Wilkinson's. Can't remember the price, but it wouldn't have been expensive.

Nicola, Jack does love the room. He spends lots of time up there now as it's his space, and if Charlotte's having one of those days, he 'hides' up there.

Waht great room for him,i like his trophy shelf,is his bed the mid sleeper height as at some point id like to get riley one(not till his older tho)as think they are great for space saving.

Riley has a groovy green room with alien boarder(top of the room)with the door to the built in wardrobe in magnetic blk board paint which he loves.

Emma, that sounds fab. I'm sure Jack would like something like that to be able to stick magnets on.

The bed is a midway sleeper as James didn't want him to have a high bed with the storage undermeath so this was the compromise. It's from ikea (ther's a surprize). Jack saw it in the store and liked it, the measurements were fine for his room and we knew it would be well made so we went for it.
