that wil have to room 2 girls 2 twin beds (there is no frames just mattreses)
and 2 dressers and 2 nightstands there is no room for toys!

what could I do to help make more space (oh yea I do not want bunk beds as
the ceiling is too low and who ever owuld have the top would be too close to the ceiling fan ~ imnot comfortable with that)

I did see a bed that can be a trundle so there is 2 beds but 1 would have to be put under every day.

I wish we really do not have any other space (Well we would if we could put a wall up in the kitchen and make the kitchen smaller but dh is DEAD set against that. grr!! we still would have plenty of room in the kithcen part of it to me is useless space.

Can you go with one nightstand in between the beds? Can the dressers go in a closet? Shelves...? Is there room for a tall bookshelf for books and toys?

I have this exact problem with my toddlers' room. I have two twin beds with only one nightstand in between and all their clothes in the closet. I have a wide shelf all along the west wall that holds their things as well. Fortunately, this room is used mainly for sleeping. They have a toy room to play in and where they spend 90% of their time. I had thought of separating them in their own rooms but their bedroom is upstairs with all the rest of the families bedrooms and the toy room is downstairs. I am not comfortable with anyone being downstairs by themself.

They also want the beds to up against each other they like to sleep by each other!

Are they totally opposed to possibly sharing the queen bed?That would give you more space and them more room to sleep.

I have thought of this but would like to have some seperateness from each ohter in case 1 is sick also they would be on top o each ohter they do not
seem to be as bad when they sleep in the twin beds

My daugther's room is super small. Heck our whole house is. I put most of her toys in her closet. I bought these stackable organizers at Target for her stuff as well as bins. I tried finding a picture of the stackable organizers but I couldn't. They are three high and come with wheels to move around. They aren't very wide but I've been able to get a good amount of toys in them. They come in pink and purple combo or red, blue and yellow. They cost 14 something if I recall. Anyway they come in handy. Is their closet walkin or big?

The do make lower bunk beds. Usually they sit in a corner and the end of one bed is slid under the top bed.

Can you put the dressers back to back?

These are the type of beds that we had in college. They were great! Gave us a LOT of room!
