From babies room to kids room..

Its funny that you have put this post up because I have just started this transition on Sam's room today.
I have just given it a bit of a tidy up and taken out some of her 'baby' toys, and removed some of her wall stickers.   I am going to repaint her chest of drawers and update the knobs as well.
Her bed is being delivered in the next few weeks and it is just a standard sleepyhead Single bed. I have bought a set of Head/base boards on TM that I will paint in the same colours as her drawers.

The link you have for a bed is gorgeous. I don't see why that wouldn't be perfect. Just keep in mind that you can pretty much pick up a whole bed for just the price of some frames and you will have to buy the mattress on top of that

Jakes got a kids room and has had one since we moved in here just after his 1st bday. The only thing is hes still in his cot but thats changing soon as hes more and more keen on having a bed. His cot turns into a bed so thats what we'll do for now but I have my eye on a bed with a trundle.
He has a huge mural on one wall that I painted with cars and trucks glued on. It matches the duvet I made him. The other walls are bright green, bright blue and bright yellow and he has bright blue and white shelves hanging on the wall.
To change it from baby to toddler room I did the following:
Instead of the big feeding chair I had, hes got a pile of oversized cushions and pillows in one corner which he crashes out on to read.
I put up shelves in his wardrobe for clothes so I didn't have to have drawers taking up space (he climbs too ). It also means its easier for him to get clothes out (we've reached the 'I wana dress myself' stage).
All the baby canvases I painted when I was pregnant are packed away and hes got new vehicle related ones up now. I like themes :)
I went through all his toys and culled the broken or ratty ones, packed away the ones to young for him and boxed up half of what was left over so I can change them around every now and then.

Yay thanks for that.

I am getting some new removable wall stickers from a website that was posted in another thread as well and a new duvet. I havnt thought about the mattress yet.

Shes not two for awhile yet, ok only 3 and a half months but i thought i could start getting everything now! I cant wait to change it all shes getting so grown up and has alot of baby stuff still.. i cant believe i am saying this.
I remember saying i didnt want her to grow up!

We have always had a kids room.

But when we put him in a big bed I took the cot down and put the bed up (looks pretty similar to the one you are looking at just without the foot end) and removed the feeding chair. I got his duvet off trademe for about $10 new

We already had wall stickers and painting on the wall that I had done ages ago.

only advice i have is to make sure the bed you get is a bed that will grow with them if you like i.e. is suitable from say age 2 through until an adult supports their growing spines.
