Unicorns & Batman {A shared boy & girl nursery & bedroom}

After we completed the initial remodel work, next we worked on each bedroom. One of the last rooms I finished was Ashlyn’s room. She was still mostly co-sleeping (not by choice, its been an ongoing war since birth!) and I wasn’t yet sure anyways how I wanted to finish her room. A year later when we found out we were pregnant with baby #3 I suddenly found my motivation to finish it. I did not know the sex yet, so I wanted a neutral color and I love blues so I choose a blue that I thought worked well for a nursery and would be pretty for what I had in mind for Ashlyn’s side of the room. When we found out it was a boy, I knew exactly what theme I wanted to do on his side: Monochrome BATMAN! My husband is a huge Batman fan and I wanted something modern so it was perfect.

You can see that each child has one side of the room with two windows between them.

I just love how their room turned out and how my boy and girl can share the space and it look and function great as well!

UPDATE: The kids have been divided and put in separate rooms at age 2 and 6. You can see Ashlyn’s girl room here and Arlo’s boy room here.
