Guest Room Decoration

by Sarah Hitchinson

Almost everyone entertains company from time to time. Whether it be your in-laws, your college friends, or a foreign exchange student, make sure your home is prepared with a beautiful guest room to greet anyone who visits.

Furniture should be the first thought in designing your guest room. Do you want to add a full, queen, or twin beds to the room. Since you never know how many guests you will have you may want to decide on two twin beds in the guest room. You will also need a dresser, nightstand, chest of drawers, and a chair to the guest room.

When you decide on a guest room you will need to make sure that it is close to the bathroom for the convenience of your guests. This is very important to guests.

You want to decorate your guest room so it is a welcoming oasis. A place they can relax and unwind after a day of travel and visiting. To achieve this feel you want to use light colors. Accent and highlight and accent with pastel colors for comforters and pillow shams. Add a bouquet of flowers on the dresser or nightstand.

A small area rug would look great in the guest room. If the guest room has a adjoining bath add the same color area rug in the bath as the bedroom. This will help the rooms balance out.

Colored and scented candles or maybe fresh potpourri through the room will not only make it smell fresh, but will make it feel clean and inviting. Place scented candles on a dresser so the scent is soft. Avoid putting any scented accessories too close to the bed or it may be overwhelming to your guests at night.

Storage space is important to the guest room. Make sure that your guests have a place to sort their clothes. You will need to have a mirror somewhere in the room if the bathroom is not adjoining.

You want the room to be welcoming and inviting. Make sure you add those final touches to the room like an extra blanket, clean towels and linens, and a soft pillow for a good nights sleep. When cleaning the guest room be sure you flip the mattress every time you change the sheets. Also keep a soft area rug on the floor to keep their feet warm.
