[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean this kindly but you recognize this will vary widely based on family circumstances?!  What good will it do to know some people will use Facebook marketplace to source free things and another will spend $20k to buy higher end furnishings?  Is there something more valuable we can answer?!  Eg I prioritize a dresser and desk because they can grow with the kid.  I expect to upgrade their bed to a larger bed as they grow older so spend slightly less on a headboard/frame.  I buy matching frames for 11x14 pictures that we print from our favorite vacations or moments and rotate out as they grow.  My budget is irrelevant.[/quote]

Really love this take on the question.

I am taking on a tween refresh, too, and am prioritizing getting Elfa for her closet because the three drawer dresser we bought when she was a baby isn't cutting it anymore. We'll decide after we get the closet done if she needs a new dresser or not. We are also swapping out her small Covid desk for a bigger desk with drawers because she'll have homework in middle school (she is at a no HW elementary school). We also put up some artwork of her choosing (some were her own paintings, plus some typical tween things like the fairy lights that you can clip photos to, a light box, etc.) and that is easily swapped out as her tastes change. She's choosing to keep her twin bed for now, but we'll buy a full or queen if she decides she wants a bigger bed when she's a teen. Right now she prefers having floor space to spread out and play with her younger sister.[/quote]
