What fabulous ideas!!! I absolutley love the string to hang up their artwork (I had no idea what I was going to do with it all). I'm going to go with neutral walls and decorate. I love that idea. I didn't think of the kids out growing wall colour. I'm getting their names cut in wood to hand on their doors.

I'm going to go to spotlight/lincraft to buy some canvases and material. This never occured to me. Oh I'm so excited!!! What kind of canvases do I buy? Am I looking for ones like the blank canvas board that artists use?? DS is going to be cars/transport because he got a track mat for his birthday. DD is probably going to be a flower/butterfly theme.

It's the curtains that are going to be hard. Both of their rooms get all day sun. So I'm thinking a thick block out roller blind in a neutral colour and then the decorative curtain strips down each side of a bright colour. Thinking pink/purple/yellow for DD and red/blue for DS. Do you think that these strips of material need to sunblock out too? Would a roller blind be warm enough in winter? They have verticals at the moment and they are just terrible.
