Decorate The Guest Room For Worry-Free Comfort
Most people use their guest room for overflow storage and clutter control. But when company comes, there is a rush to make the room comfortable and tidy. Use these tips to decorate your guest room in a simple fashion that will eliminate the worry when the doorbell rings.
Since your guests will likely only need their own room when they spend the night, you’re going to need quality linens. Purchase three or four towel sets in a neutral color and store them in the guest room closet. Buy two high-thread count sheet sets and two soft, comfortable bedding quilts. Also make sure to get four pillows that are well filled but not overly hard. All of the bedding should also be in a neutral color scheme.
There are a few other room essentials for overnight guests. Place a reading lamp on the nightstand with an easy to find switch. Set up a digital alarm clock and make sure to have the correct time on it when your guests arrive. Have a large mirror in the room as well, since they will likely dress in their room, and plenty of storage space for their clothing. An empty chest of drawers works well.
Pick out well made, stylish furniture that isn’t too bold or dated. Wood is often the best choice and will last for years with little maintenance. A set with matching bedside tables and at least a double bed is a good choice. Sleigh beds are ideal for styling and have an attractive, inviting look that never goes out of fashion. Choose muted colors instead of brass, gold or other bright hues.
Art on the walls should be understated; landscapes and simple paintings work the best. You can go with a theme room, but don’t go overboard. You want your guests to feel at home, not in a museum. Larger frames should be hung on large walls and small prints work well in interesting layouts. Install room darkening window coverings, but make sure they can be pulled up to allow the sunshine in the room.
Pile extra blankets on the foot of the Sleigh bed and put the extra pillows in the closet (if they don’t fit on the bed). Keep clutter off of the furniture and the floor and out of the closet if possible. If you do store your things in the guest room, have them neatly packed away in boxes so there is a sense of organization.
Your guests will appreciate the calm and comfortable atmosphere you’ve created for them in this simply decorated guest room. Then they will be sure to visit again soon.
