Next time she visits we're going to add an acacia tree with a leopard and a monkey on the sloping ceilings, but this kept us busy for a few days, at least. I also plan to swap out the dresser for two of these:
I'm also considering getting a LACK shelf to function as a nightstand between the beds. I had planned to buy a couple of daybeds for the room, but now that the room is painted, I actually sort of like the cheap pine beds we have in there. If you were me, would you spring for these (@$500 apiece), or keep the beds we have?

i like the beds, too. they look like safari cots, at least in pictures.
very cute! i like both beds, so i'd save the $$ and keep the pine ones
Oooh. I love the elephants! They look great! And I agree- leave the beds as is. They just seem to fit with the room.
nice work S&T~
So the beds are staying. I had two end tables in my living room that I was planning to replace once we do the big living room furniture overhaul of 2010 (it better not end up being 2011), that were the perfect color and size for nightstands, so I substituted some cobwebby and falling apart ottomans in the living room and brought the tables up to the bedroom.
Since we're saving so much by not buying the beds, I'm now considering either one of these dressers:

Opinions?
I like the new beds. The old ones have seen better days --- I've seen them up close, but you could definitely wait for a while. The drawers on the new beds would hide all their stuff and give them a similar set up to the girl's room. The boys just don't holler as loud as the girls so they are more likely to make do with what they've got!
