Boy and girl sharing a room: Need decor ideas

My DD is 2 1/2 and I have a DS on the way...
For now, they both have to share a bedroom until my DD is older.

I am tryign to get gender neutral bedding sets, but I feel they still look so boyish.

Anyone want to share pics of what your room looks like if yours kids share?

Thanks

I don't have children, but I love this http://www.babybedding.com/mist-and-white-dots-and-stripes-crib-bedding

and then you can do the same thing in a more "girly" color for her. Then, paint in a neutral color or do something like this but obviously your children are younger so you can do softer/more babyish colors http://pinterest.com/pin/192036371580836757/

I wouldn't do the same exact bedding for both...just paint neutral and then do something like this maybe?

pottery barn always has bedding for shared nurseries that are the same general pattern but one pink one blue

I have a 2 year old DD and a DS on the way. They will be sharing and I'm redoing the room in a princess/knights/dragons/ castle theme.

Her side will be princesses and castles, his side knights and dragons. I'm painting the walls a neutral griege color and got them bedding w/o a theme, but to match the color scheme and I'll accessorize and use wall decals to create the theme.

Since its not too babyish, I'm hoping this theme will take them through to when we either move or build on to our house to make it bigger.
