Jungle theme suggestions!! HELP

My daughter is 7 and is crazy about the jungle. She loves lizards, snakes, turtles, basically all reptiles. Anyway, she is wanting me to redecorate her room. I'm such a visual person and have searched the internet over looking for an idea. She has a loft bed, that I was thinking about painting vines and snakes on it. I'm not sure exactly what I'm looking for, just something that SNAPS! SO, if anyone has any brilliant ideas, websites, pictures, anything, please send them my way.

Thanks so much,
Holly

go to a wallpaper website & search for "jungle" or "animal". i've seen lots of murals & wallpaper & borders with those images. also any bedding catalogs/websites will have comforter sets with that theme. just look & you'll find plenty! once you find one element you like, you can build the rest around that. good luck!

bed in the tree tops

go buy several yards of acouple shades of green and sew or pay a sew person through your localfabric store to sew a few dozen palms leaves stuffed with some quilt batting to give demension. Make those leaves about as long as your arm and wide so you could tack the securely to her bed and the wall behind. Connect with brown fabric trunks which can be cut in a shaggy way to give the impression of the rugged bark of the jungle palm. the leaves don't have to be hemmed either...what in nature has hems. Then maybe you kid could make their own snakes and crawly things out of thick paper.
