[quote=Anonymous]Our walls are neutral colors with jungle animal sticker decals.  We have a crib and a Land of Nod dresser (total waste...overpriced and not that great), a glider, and a jungle animal toy box we were given by family.  Also, there is a rug from Target (a POS from day one, but it serves what we thought was a temporary function...almost 3 years later).  We have blackout curtains on one window and shades on both that window and a door/window, which is also covered in a aluminum foil (we like a dark room).  i asked my grandmother to make valance curtains out of an extra crib bedskirt.  we stopped using the bedskirt after about a year and use the valance on only the door/window, from which we hung a baby quilt with the same jungle animals.  basically, the room is a mish-mash and was largely decorated by gifts from family (who i think thought we needed to do more to decorate the room...ha!), but it's functional and works for us.  once the first moved into his own room, the second baby arrived and used the baby room just as it was before.  that not-a-baby-anymore will move in with our oldest in the fall and baby #3 (what were we thinking!) will move in and continue to use it just as it was.

it's not a special room by any means and i do really like friends' rooms that are more put together and better designed.  i don't have a good eye for design and i always thought the decorations would be short-lived, making it not worth the effort to put something nice together. that didn't work out to be right, but i'm ok with it.
