Lighting for childrens room

Looking for some inspiration.

Decorating a bedroom for DD and DS to share. They are both v young. I am thinking of keeping the walls neutral, something like a primrose white (or maybe apple white) to go with green velvet curtains which are in the room already. I'm thinking of jungle animal wall stickers, and maybe name stickers over the cotbeds. There are 2 lights by where their beds will be, (currently reading lights either side of a double bed) thinking of something soft and cute, ive got a few ideas for these. There are a further 2 wall mounted lights which serve as the main lights in the room, and am really struggling to find anything suitable for these.

Any suggestions? Have been all over google.

TIA.

How about Star Lights? these are nice and suitable for older children too (but not very Jungle-themed lol)

we have different lights in our girls' room. they have an end each so have different headboards, different duvets and different lights. I don't think shared rooms all have to match. The colours tone in but otherwise we have gone with different to suit them.

Thanks for replying. Not looking for anything matchy specifically, just wanted something to make the room look special (can you guess I never had a nicely decorated room as a kid, and had to share with my granny when she came on extended stays....!!)

I guess my problem is that I can see loads of shades and pendant lights and table lamps which are lovely, but nothing specifically wall mounted.

Thank you anyway! The search continues!

not exciting but Argos have plain white value ones for a fiver each that you can paint the same colour as the wall. we are thinking of those for our dc's shared room (aqua walls)

but I will be watching this thread for other ideas. and looking at the links when on my PC again (or someone makes them clicky)

flower version
Kite probably not in keeping but quite fun
I know it's not jungle themed but I quite like the Sheep
Same goes for superhero
Frog is cute and comes as a double light here
Bee and flower one
Expensive Butterfly
Another Sheep or Cow
love the idea for Ikea flower lights on here
More flowers
Ladybird

Thank you all!

I really like snakey and the kite, I'd already found the steinhauer cow and sheep which are super cute. I'd go for plain if my walls were going to be a vibrant colour, but as the walls are more of a background I'd like something jazzy.

Poocatcher here is a good selection of wall stickers.

Thanks again!
