Merry Christmas to Shayde and Tailan

So since the boys were on the naughty list this year, we told them Santa wouldn't bring them any toys. So instead we re-did their bedroom as their Christmas gift. We painted and purchased a new set of bunk beds that seem to be pretty indestructible...we'll see... they also have a set of stairs rather than a ladder, so i can sleep in peace without worrying that my children are going to ring their necks trying to get up and down a ladder in the middle of the night. the stairs are also drawers, and there are drawers under the bed as well, to maximize the space.

here are some pictures....
the brown in the middle is magnetic chalkboard..so they can write messages or draw. and yes, we did hang the curtains upside down on purpose. thought it added character...view of the awesome bunk beds... and shayde's head...
here you can see some of the cute magnets we found...well we found the cute painted wood pieces and added the magnetic strip on the back...i mean...SANTA did.....

also, the shelves were actually headboards. we bought them and i hand painted them ,b ut we decided to do the bunk beds and i didn't want to get rid of them because they are So cute and it took FOREVER to paint them! so we bolted the one to the wall down low, nad the other we chopped the legs of and hung up higher, you cant really see the inside bottom of the top one but its cream and blue checkerboard.
